5S Audit Checklists

5S audit checklists are used to ensure workers follow standard housekeeping procedures that apply the 5S principles of Sort (seiri), Set in order (seiton), Shine (seiso), Standardize (seiketsu), and Sustain (shitsuke) to maintain cleanliness and orderliness in the workplace. The 5S method helps improve productivity, working conditions, and with the addition of a 6th S for Safety, the safety of all employees. Conduct digital 5S audits using iAuditor, the world’s #1 inspection app, and capture photos of items that are no longer needed, notify your team members or vendors to work on urgent actions, and schedule 5S inspections to promote productivity best practices and workplace culture.
