5s does not make money its costs a fortune

[Skydiver7777777]

5S does not make you money - it stops you wasting money, there is a difference. It should not really cost much at all to implement as it is really about workplace organisation and eliminating waste wherever you can. The savings you make will more than cover any expense you should incur. Often people do not realise what is being wasted and therefore do not see the benefits of implementing such processes.

You forgot to mention that it is really hard to change people minds towards this filosofy.

is not that easy, I have 3 years of experience

on 5's and kaisen events and believe me people is the most dificult thing deal with.

The front portion of this training video provides a nice summary of the elements of 5S. It emphasizes the need to set standards, which is critical. But then at the end it falls into the too-common trap of throwing in a whole bunch of other stuff - in this case the material about leadership behaviour. From a training perspective, the last bit is probably worthless because there is too much to take in, and nothing to get your teeth into. It is just another to-do list, not training. Skip this one.

But if the problem is the people, just begin to change you work team, I´m quite sure that if you begin to take off the unnecesary people, starting whit the most problematic, you will get results in a short time, believe me, I just has lived this experience many times, and it results! Greetings...

@JuanGaby1 , I agreed with you, people used to have large house just don't get it, l when they squeezed by inflation or unployment that the aprtment is the best way fow now not the past.

@twed57 read the book The Toyota Way and you will fully understand where 5S and Lean comes from.

[daeclipse03]

@S0171238 that is why you need to train them in lean manufacturing principles and make them a part of the process. You hold Kaizen ( continuous improvement ) projects and have the operators organize and run them! This does work when management takes it seriously and holds the operators accountable to adhering to it, I see it everyday at work and we live and breathe lean at Guardian Industries.

[S0171238]

@JuanGaby1 exactly. You can change ur warehouse to make it leaner as much as you want. But if the operators won't change, your work has no impact at all

"The origin of 5S seems .."

I believe you if you can provide something to prove it.

I have found none.
