Easy-to-read and apply, each section of the text is loaded with questions, outlines, summaries, diagrams and illustrations.

Since its publication in 1996, 5S for Operators has been and continues to be hugely popular and its popularity is not hard to understand. 5S has proven its worth in one company after another, consistently reducing waste, guaranteeing product quality, ensuring safety and increasing the bottom line.
