5 S – At SRICT

5S is the name of a workplace organization method that uses a list of five Japanese words :

1. SEIRI i.e. Sort

2. SEITON i.e. set in Order

3. SEISO i.e. Shine

4. SEIKETSU i.e. Standardize

5. SHITSUKE i.e. Sustain

5S is a simple, systematic method of creating working environment in such a way that it leads to improved productivity and quality, reduction in wastage of materials and inventories, enhanced safety and ultimately motivated and enthusiastic human force.

Thus, 5S is an integrated concept for proper work place management. In fact, it is a gateway and basic requirement and also foundation for any further improvement. It has a close linkage with overall performance of organization in terms of quality development in all aspects.
