What is the origin of 5s? How to implement it

The "5S" activity originated in Japan, 1955. The slogan of 5S in Japan is "Safety begins with sorting and ends with sorting". At that time, only the first two s were implemented, and its purpose was only to ensure the workspace and safety. Later, due to the need of production and quality control, 3S, namely cleaning, cleaning and cultivation, was gradually put forward, which further expanded the application space and scope. By 1986, the works of 5S in Japan were gradually published, which had an impact on the whole field management mode and set off a 5S craze.

The object of "5S" activity is the "environment" of the site. Considering the overall situation of the production site environment, practical plans and measures are formulated to realize standardized management. The core and essence of "5S" activity is self-cultivation. Without the corresponding improvement of employees' self-cultivation, it is difficult to carry out and adhere to the "5S" activities.

Content of "5S" activity

(1) Sorting out the people, things and things that are needed from the people, things and things that are not needed, and then dealing with the people, things and things that are not needed is the first step to improve the production site. Its main point is to classify all kinds of articles actually placed and stagnant at the production site, and distinguish between those needed and those not needed at the site; Secondly, we must resolutely clean up unnecessary items on the site, such as used materials, redundant semi-finished products, chips, leftovers, garbage, waste products, redundant tools, scrapped equipment, workers' personal daily necessities, etc. The focus of this work is to resolutely clean up unnecessary things at the scene. The front and rear of each station or equipment in the workshop, the left and right of the passage, the up and down of the workshop, the inside and outside of the toolbox and the dead corner of the workshop should be thoroughly searched and cleaned to make the best use of everything. Resolutely doing this step is the beginning of establishing a good style of work. Some Japanese companies put forward the slogan: efficiency and safety begin with the end!

The purpose of dressing is: ① to improve and increase the working area; (2) There is no sundries on the site, the streets are unobstructed, and the work efficiency is improved; (3) reduce collision opportunities, ensure safety and improve quality; (4) Put an end to management mistakes such as mixed loading and mixed loading; ⑤ It is beneficial to reduce inventory and save money; ⑥ Change working style and improve working mood. (2) Rectify and quantify the needed people, things and things. After the completion of the previous step, scientifically and reasonably arrange and place the items that need to be left at the production site, obtain the required items as quickly as possible, and complete the operation under the most effective rules and regulations and the simplest process. The main points of remediation activities are as follows: ① Articles should be placed in fixed places and areas, so as to be easy to find and prevent mistakes caused by mixing; (2) Articles should be placed in a scientific and reasonable place. For example, according to the frequency of use of items, things that are often used should be placed nearby (such as the work area), and things that are occasionally used or not commonly used should be placed far away (such as concentrated in a certain place in the workshop); (3) Visualize the placement of articles, so that the quantitatively loaded articles can be seen and counted, and the areas where different articles are placed are distinguished by different colors and marks. Reasonable placement of articles in the production site is conducive to improving work efficiency and product quality and ensuring production safety. This work has developed into a special field management method-fixed location management (its content will be further introduced in the third section). (3) Clean the workplace, and immediately repair the equipment when it is abnormal, so that it can return to normal. Dust, oil, iron filings, garbage, etc. Will be produced in the production process of the production site, thus making the site dirty. Dirty scene will reduce the accuracy of equipment, cause frequent failures, affect product quality, and prevent safety accidents; Dirty scenes will affect people's working mood and make people unwilling to stay for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to remove those dirt through cleaning activities and create a bright and comfortable working environment.

The main points of cleaning activities are: (1) clean your own belongings, such as equipment and tools, without relying on others and adding special cleaning agents; (2) Equipment cleaning, focusing on equipment maintenance. Cleaning equipment should be combined with point inspection of equipment, that is, point inspection and repair; Cleaning equipment should be lubricated at the same time, and cleaning is also maintenance; ③ Cleaning is also for improvement. When cleaning the ground, flying debris and oil-water leakage are found. It is necessary to find out the reasons and take measures to improve them. (four) after cleaning, rectification and cleaning, it should be carefully maintained to keep the site intact and in the best condition. Cleaning is the persistence and deepening of the first three activities, thus eliminating the root causes of safety accidents. Create a good working environment and let employees work happily. The main points of cleaning activities are as follows: (1) The workshop environment should not only be neat, but also clean and hygienic, so as to ensure the health of workers and improve their labor enthusiasm; (2) Not only articles should be clean, but also workers themselves should be clean, such as clean work clothes, neat instruments, timely haircut, shaving, manicure, bathing, etc. (3) Workers should not only be physically clean, but also be mentally "clean", be polite and respect others; (4) Protect the environment from pollution, further eliminate turbid air, dust, noise and pollution sources, and eliminate occupational diseases. (5) Literacy is to strive to improve employees' self-cultivation and form the habit and style of strictly observing rules and regulations, which is the core of "5S" activities. Without the improvement of personnel quality, all activities can not be carried out smoothly and can not be adhered to. Therefore, to grasp the "5S" activities, we should always focus on improving people's quality.

Principles of developing "5S" activities

(1) Self-management principle. A good working environment cannot be created only by adding equipment, nor can others be expected to create it. We should fully rely on the on-site personnel, who should create a neat, clean, convenient and safe working environment for themselves, so that they can transform their subjective world while transforming the objective world, create a sense of beauty, and cultivate the atmosphere and habits of obeying rules and disciplines and strict requirements required by modern mass production. Because it is the result of self-creation, it is easy to maintain and persist. (2) Carrying out "5S" activities based on the principle of building factories with diligence and thrift will clean up a lot of useless things from the production site, some of which are just useless at the site, but can be used in other places; Although some of them are wastes, they should be used in the spirit of turning waste into treasure. If it needs to be scrapped, it should be used by all means, and its "residual value" should be treated according to the scrapping procedure. Never treat them "happily" for a while and throw them away like garbage. The "black sheep" style of extravagance and waste, regardless of enterprise property, should be stopped in time, criticized and educated, and appropriate punishment should be given if the circumstances are serious.

(3) Persistence Principle "5S" activity is relatively easy to carry out, and it can be vigorous and achieve obvious results in a short time, but it is not easy to persist, persevere and constantly optimize. Many enterprises are too tight, loose, collapsed and repeated. Therefore, it is very important to carry out "5S" activities. Enterprises should stick to this activity, first of all, put the "5S" activity into the post responsibility system, so that each department and personnel have clear post responsibilities and work standards; Secondly, strictly and conscientiously do a good job in inspection, appraisal and assessment, and link the assessment results with the economic interests of various departments and personnel; Third, stick to PDCA cycle and constantly improve the "5S" level on site, that is, constantly find and solve problems through inspection. Therefore, after the inspection and evaluation, we must also put forward improvement measures and plans for the existing problems, so that the "5S" activities can be carried out continuously.

Steps of 5S management implementation

I have mastered the basic knowledge of 5S field management methods, but I don't have the ability to carry out 5S activities. Due to improper implementation steps and methods, it is not uncommon to get twice the result with half the effort or even give up halfway. Therefore, it is very important to master the correct steps and methods. Step 1: Set the implementing organization 1. Establish committees and implementation offices. Determine the responsibilities of the organization. The main work of the division of labor committee. Organize and divide areas of responsibility. It is suggested that the main leaders of enterprises should be the directors of the 5S activity implementation committee to support this activity. Specific arrangements can be made by the deputy director in charge of overall implementation activities. Step 2: Formulate implementation guidelines and target guidelines: When implementing 5S management, formulate guidelines as guiding principles. Example 1: Carry out 5S management and build a first-class image in China. Example 2: Say goodbye to yesterday, challenge yourself and create a new image of Hongjie. Example 3: Create a new company image from details. Ex. 4: Formulating the policy of standardizing the site, existing things and improving people's quality should be infectious in combination with the specific situation of the enterprise. Once a policy is formulated, it should be widely publicized. Goal setting: first set the expected goal as the activity direction, which is convenient for checking the results during the activity. Example 1: In the fourth month, every department got more than 90 points. Ex. 2: When guests visit the factory, they don't have to make temporary preparations in advance, but also combine the goal setting with the specific situation of the enterprise. Step 3: Work plan and implementation method 1. Schedule is the basis of implementation and control. Information and reference of other factory practices 3.5S activity implementation method 4. Distinguish from unwanted items 5.5S activity evaluation method 6.5S activity reward and punishment method 7. Relevant regulations (5S time, etc. ) 8. Work must be planned, so that everyone can have an overall understanding of the whole process. The project leader knows what the work of himself and other leaders is, when it will be completed, and cooperates with each other to create team morale. Step 4: Education ★ All departments educate all employees ★ The content and purpose of 5S field management methods ★ The implementation method of 5S field management methods ★ The evaluation method of 5S field management methods ★ It is very important to train and educate new employees on 5S field management methods, so that employees can understand that 5S activities can bring benefits to their work and actively do it, which is completely different from being forced to do it by others. The forms of education should be diversified, such as lectures, videos, observing cases or model areas of other factories and learning implementation manuals. Step 5: Publicity before the event. Only when all employees pay attention to and participate in 5S activities can we achieve good results ★ The top supervisor issues a declaration (morning meeting, internal newspaper, etc. ) ★ Poster, internal newspaper publicity ★ Publicity column Step 6: Implement 1. Work preparation II. "Bathing" campaign (all employees are thoroughly cleaned) 3. Ground marking and article identification standard 4. Development of "three" and "three elements" 5. Photography 6. "5S daily confirmation form" and its implementation. Operation Step 7: Determine the activity evaluation method 1. Coefficient: difficulty coefficient, number of people, area coefficient, education coefficient 2. Step 8 of scoring method: Check 1. Check 2. Ask questions and answer question 3. Various activities and competitions (such as essay writing) Step 10: In view of the shortcomings, review and correct the responsible department to improve and continuously improve. 1.QC technology In 5S activities, it is necessary to introduce QC technology and IE technology properly, which can make 5S activities more smooth and effective. Step 1 1: Incorporate routine management activities ★ Improve standardization and institutionalization ★ Implement various 5S field management methods and strengthen monthly activities. What needs to be emphasized is that due to the differences in background, structure, corporate culture and personnel quality, enterprises may encounter various problems in implementation. Only by taking feasible countermeasures according to the specific problems encountered in the implementation process can we achieve satisfactory results.
