Accompanying brochure for workshops
The Schaumann bookbindery uses this brochure to advertise 5S seminars on its premises, which are conveniently an ideal illustrative object. The cover picture is from a photo shoot I did at the beginning of 2016. You can find more photos from it under PHOTOGRAPHY.
What is "5S"? Among other things, the 5S method leads to an increase in quality and reliability through systematic organisation and cleanliness. It originated in Japan and creates minimalist and tightly organised workplaces and work processes that make work easier, safer, more efficient and more productive. The first step is to determine exactly what is needed where and when.
Everything that is not needed is removed. An ergonomically sensible storage location is then selected for each individual item that is actually needed.
All tools and work materials are therefore permanently assigned a special place. They are only ever stored there and are always put back there after use. This system becomes second nature over time and benefits employees, the company and customers.
After all, a perfectly organised workplace also boosts motivation and helps to identify deviations at an early stage, often preventing errors from occurring in the first place.
At the Schaumann bookbindery, all workstations are now organised by 5S in such a way that work can run smoothly: nobody has to search for tools or work equipment. Long transport routes and unnecessary waiting times are also avoided.
Together with the employees, a clean and tidy working environment has been created, which is maintained with every move - the basis for high-quality work, which of course also benefits the company's customers.
