Our overseas factories are messy with equipments or parts compared with our factories in Japan. A messy work place can be dangerous and decrease efficiency.
與日本的工廠相比，其他國家工廠里工具和部件擺放很散亂。
散亂的工作場所會增加危險性，作業(yè)效率也會降低。

Right. I think that's because Japanese 5S methodology still hasn't spread into overseas factories.
是啊，那是因為其他國家的工廠沒有推廣類似日本“5S”的概念吧。

What is the 5S?
“5S”是什么？
王工
5S is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses five Japanese words. These Japanese words have been converted in English to Sorting, Setting-in-Order, Shining, Standardizing and Sustaining the Discipline.
“5S”是使用5個日語詞匯整理工作場所的方法。這5個詞匯在英語里的表述是Sorting（整理）、 Setting-in-Order（整頓）、 Shining（清掃）、Standardizing（清潔）、 Sustaining the Discipline（守紀(jì)）。
"Sorting" means to keep only essential items and eliminate things not required.
Sorting（整理）指在作業(yè)區(qū)域內(nèi)只放置必要物品，清除無用物品。
"Set-in-Order" means there should be a place for everything and everything should be in its place. And the places should be easily-accessible.
Setting-in-Order（整頓）指每件物品均有規(guī)定的放置點，每件物品都應(yīng)位于該放置點。而且，該放置點應(yīng)該是便于拿放的位置。
"Shining" means to clean the workspace and all equipment, and keep it clean.
Shining（清掃）指時常清掃工作場所和用具，保持清潔。
"Standardizing" means to maintain the Sorting, Setting-in-Order and Shining.
Standardizing（清潔）指堅持整理、整頓、清掃。
"Sustaining the Discipline" means to accustom everyone to follow set rules and procedures.
Sustaining the Discipline（守紀(jì)）指養(yǎng)成正確遵守所規(guī)定的規(guī)則和流程的習(xí)慣。
Implementing the 5S will lead to increase in productivity, safety and quality of products.
實行這5點，就能提升工廠的生產(chǎn)效率、安全性和質(zhì)量了。
John
That's great! We will instruct our employees to implement the 5S methodology immediately.
太好了！我立刻去讓員工貫徹執(zhí)行。
