  Course Overview

5S is a method for workplace organisation which describes how to organise a workplace for maximum efficiency and effectiveness, using five Japanese words. Its main objective is to create a clean, orderly environment where there is a place for everything and everything is in its place. It is one of the most widely adopted techniques from the lean manufacturing toolbox. 

This 5S Training is designed to provide knowledge of the different elements of 5S. Starting with the benefits of 5S to an organisation, it then looks at how to remove unnecessary items, equipment layout, storage methods, and visual management. As well as this, general cleaning, activity planning and resourcing will also be covered, and the concepts of red-tagging and auditing. By the end of the course, delegates will be able to maintain and improve standards and implement plan development.

Geography:

Chester deceits at the southern end of a 2-mile (3.2 km) Triassic sandstone edge that increases to a height of 42 m within a natural S-bend in the River Dee. The bedrock, which is also recognised as the Chester Pebble Beds, is perceptible because of the many small stones stuck within its layers. Receding glacial sheet ice also placed amounts of sand and marl across the area where boulder clay was inattentive.

The eastern and northern part of Chester contained heathland and forest. The western side towards the Dee Estuary was marsh and wetland homes.

Climate:

Chester has an oceanic weather. Even with its nearness to the Irish Sea, the temperature system is similar to areas further inland, owing to the shelter delivered by the Pennines to the northeast and the Welsh Mountains to the south-west. The nearest official weather station is at Hawarden Airport, about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of the city Centre.

The absolute supreme temperature recorded was 35.2 °C for the period of August 1990. In an average year, the warmest day should reach 29.3 °C.
