Shitsuke意思
"Shitsuke" is a Japanese word that is part of the 5S system, which is a method for organizing workplaces and improving efficiency. The 5S system consists of five Japanese words starting with the letter "S":
- Seiri (整理) - Sorting
- Seiton (整頓) - Setting in order
- Seiso (清掃) - Shining (cleaning)
- Seiketsu (清潔) - Standardizing
- Shitsuke (躾) - Sustaining good habits
"Shitsuke" is the fifth and final step of the 5S system, and it means "discipline" or "training" in the sense of instilling good habits and maintaining the improvements achieved through the previous steps. The goal of shitsuke is to ensure that the practices and culture of cleanliness and order are maintained over time and become part of the daily routine of the workplace.
By practicing shitsuke, employees are encouraged to continue the behaviors that have been learned through the 5S process, such as keeping work areas clean, maintaining equipment, and following standard operating procedures. This helps to prevent the reversion to old, less efficient ways of working and ensures that the benefits of the 5S system are long-lasting.
