Weekly Worksite 5S Audit

by Rico Guillen, from the Community

This weekly worksite 5S audit checklist helps teams apply the 5S principles of Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain to maintain an organized, efficient, and safe workplace. It guides reviewers to verify a visible and current red tag area, availability and placement of tools, materials, and PPE, and clear locations for personal items. It checks cable and hose organization, cleanliness and leak control, and systems for resolving abnormalities. Standards include a current responsibility map, documented shine routines, scheduling of 5S time each shift, communication of issues, and up to date tool boards. Sustain items cover guarding and containment of oil, water, dust, follow up on actions, and ensuring work does not make operators dirty.
