Housekeeping & 5 "S": Prepared By: Suman Kumar Singh

This document provides an introduction to the 5S methodology for good housekeeping and organization. 5S stands for five Japanese terms that translate to English as: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. The 5S approach involves sorting through all items in a workspace to discard unnecessary items, organizing the remaining items neatly in designated areas, thoroughly cleaning the workspace, creating standards for maintaining cleanliness and order, and sustaining the new systems through training and discipline. Implementing 5S helps improve safety, quality, productivity and morale by eliminating wasted time and motion from disorganization. Management must be committed to providing resources and support, while employees are responsible for actively participating in 5S activities.
