And now that all that is out of the way - let's get to the Podcast!
The 5S Methodology - Straighten
If you caught our podcast over the last two weeks, you'd know we started covering The 5S Methodology.
We covered the intro to 5S and the first "S" - Sort. As it applies to 5S, sorting involves going through your work areas and facility and determining what's essential and non-essential.
This week, we will cover the next "S" - Straighten. Straightening - as it pertains to 5S - involves making everything essential quickly and efficiently accessible. In addition – it allows for a system of always knowing where those essential items are, who’s using them, and where they go when no longer needed. Another phrase for this step is, Set In Order. So, in addition to what was mentioned above – it also entails making sure items are organized by priority of use. Following this step allows you to keep your tools available to those that need them when they need them the most.
Next week, we'll discuss the next "S" of The 5S Methodology - Shine.
Until then - thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips.
Have a great week, and STAY SAFE!
