• A critical factor to successfully implementing andsustaining the benefits of a 5S program is thesignificant role employees will play. Actual areas offacility are chosen for improvement (Office, Filingroom, toilet, library as well as the wholeorganization). These areas serve as the practicalhands-on exercises for the application of each 5Stechnique.
