The 5S are a process for creating and maintaining a clean, tidy, efficient and safe workplace.
We are applying this methodology in some departments called “Cantieri 5S”:
– DESIGN TOOLS
– CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT
– LARGE AND SMALL FOLDER
– MANUAL SHOOTING
Through the external audits carried out by Leonardo of LeanProve we are implementing these changes; involving each employee personally.
We have currently completed the first 3S:
-ORGANIZE / SEIRI
– ORDER / SEITON
– CLEAN / SEISO
The benefits are:
Quality:
– Elimination of using previously discarded parts and using unsuitable tools.
Safety:
– Reduction of possible injuries and we have made the working environment ergonomic and more comfortable.
Productivity:
– Elimination of time wasted searching for the tools or objects needed to do the job and keep the equipment efficient through appropriate maintenance and cleaning.
