  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.

Dundee is Scotland's fourth-largest city. It is the 51st-most-populous region in the United Kingdom. According to the census of 2016, its population was 148,270. It is situated in the eastern central Lowlands of the Firth of Tay, which then falls into the North Sea. Under the name of Dundee City, it achieves one of the 32 council areas used for local government in Scotland.

Accurately part of Angus, the city familiar into a burgh in the late 12th century and documented itself as a significant east coast trading port. Fast growth was transported on by the Industrial Rebellion, mainly in the 19th century when Dundee was the centre of the global jute industry. This, along with its other main industries gave Dundee its nickname as the city of jute, jam and journalism.
