5S for SAFETY program overview
The 5S for Safety Vision
 All sources of injury are eliminated
 All employees participate in finding
issues, all the time
 Employee teams perform safety audits
 TRIR/LWDIR metric is better than world
class
 All employees take pride in knowing that
we work hard at being safe
5S – Defined
What are the 5S’s?
•Sort – “When in doubt, throw it out”; Red tagging unneeded items
•Store – “A place for everything, everything in its place”; Point of use
•Scrub – “Clean for inspection”; Hospital clean; Better work atmosphere
•Standardize – “How do I know that should be there”; Color coding
•Sustain – Audit and follow-through; continual improvement through inspection
5S For Safety
What are the 5S’s for Safety?
What to look for:
•Sort – Remove potentially unsafe / broken
items from the area
•Pinch points
•
Burn hazards
•Trip hazards
•
Improper
containers
•Store – Items are safely and ergonomically
positioned for use, aisles and workstations
are safe from unseen dangers
•Scrub – No hidden dangers, no hidden
instructions
•Standardize – Visual safety signs, postings
are current and meaningful
•Sustain – Audit and follow-through;
continual improvement through inspection,
training
•Broken machinery
•Slippery floors
•Sharp objects
•Missing instructions
•Fall hazards
•Poor ergonomics
•Missing/broken guards
•Exposed moving parts
5S For Safety Program Key Points
• Red Tagging for Safety is a continual process, not an
“event”. Employees should red tag anytime they see an
issue. All employees receive a short 5S for Safety Training
session
• Red tagging is visual, and visual boards show what items
are outstanding
• Periodic standard audits dig deeper with probing questions
• Audit scores can show trends and levels of improvement
• Safety audit team is developed
Red Tag
 Red tag technique:
 Physically identify (tag) items that are unsafe in the
work place
 Fill out and attach the red tag to the unsafe item
 Pull off the bottom, give it to your supervisor
 Supervisor identifies the correct path forward, then
places tag on 5S for Safety board until the problem
is resolved
 Supervisor turns in completed tags for tracking

5S audit team
• A small audit team of volunteers is trained in 5S and 5S
for safety
• This team is lead by the current safety officer during the
auditing process
• The team audits one zone each month. They red tag and
follow the standard red tagging process as they find
issues from the audit sheet.
