Authors: Productivity Press Development Team, Tel-A-Train
Eliminate the causes of unsafe workplace conditions with this unique 5S
approach!
Need a way to quickly and easily start a safety program or to reenergize
your safety efforts? Poor safety conditions exist in all plants. They are
inherent to the manufacturing industry itself. Slippage can occur from water
or grease on the floor. Fires can occur from oil or chemical leaks. Mobile
equipment can cause accidents of all kinds. Employees are safe and
productive only when their work environment is safe. Now you can use the
basics of 5S - organization, orderliness, cleanliness, standardized
clean-up, and self-discipline - as a simple, proactive and inexpensive way
to solve safety problems in the workplace.
An uncluttered, well-organized, and understandable workplace is the
foundation for safety. 5S for Safety: New Eyes for the Shop Floor is a set
of universal principles and activities that sustain safe conditions on the
shop floor. The 5S for Safety video program focuses on improving unsafe and
hazardous conditions that exist before an accident has occurred. It is this
pre-accident view that makes 5S for Safety a preventive approach. 5S for
Safety uses a unique method - the safety scan - to diagnose the causes of
accidents. Based on that analysis, it then draws on standard 5S techniques
and OSHA guidelines to identify, implement, and standardize "best
practices"for shopfloor conditions. What's more, 5S for Safety doesn't stop
with making your workplace a safer place. It will make it an efficient, more
productive place as well. While improving safety, you'll also be fostering
efficiency and continuous improvement in your company's operations. 5S stops
the conflict between safety and profit, because when you use the 5S
approach, you will increase productivity and profits while you improve
safety.
Safety should be the number one concern in any manufacturing environment.
The 5S system is gaining status in America because it works easily and
quickly! These fast-paced, hard-hitting videos and guide will convince you
that you can't wait for another accident, or even another "near miss" to
begin eliminating unsafe conditions.
