Press Audit Checklist

by dustin burkhart, from the Community

This press audit checklist helps manufacturing teams assess the condition and organization of press work areas using 5S principles. Verify that only required equipment, tools, furniture, and materials are present, and that tripping hazards are removed. Confirm clear identification and proper placement of machinery, tool storage, containers, and PPE zones. Check visibility and access to stop switches, breakers, and fire suppression equipment; mark aisles, forklift lanes, walkways, and exits; and verify ergonomic setups. Evaluate cleanliness of tools, equipment, work surfaces, floors, and signage, and ensure cleaning schedules and storage are in place. Review standardization, maintenance records, waste controls, environmental conditions, and posting of previous audit results. Confirm management participation, weekly 5S duties, and continuous improvement. Capture photos, notes, actions, and signatures to close out issues.

5S Audit Checklist
This 5S Audit Checklist helps supervisors and plant managers evaluate workplace organization and safety using the five pillars of 5S: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Conduct monthly or quarterly audits to verify that only required tools, equipment, and materials are present, storage and labeling are clear, floors and aisles are marked, PPE and emergency equipment are accessible, and cleaning schedules are followed. The checklist supports ergonomic setup, preventive maintenance, waste removal, and documentation of previous audit results. Capture notes, photos, and evidence, assign corrective actions with owners, priorities, and due dates, and track completion to drive continuous improvement across work areas.
