Implementación de metodología 5’S en el área de molinos de una empresa de transformación de plásticos de la ciudad de Guayaquil

Abstract

In this graduation project, we will work on the methodology to develop a work culture where people have the opportunity to carry out all the tasks that their responsibilities demand on a day-to-day basis, in an orderly, safe manner and with sufficiently efficient response times. so that the organization can achieve the proposed objectives. The 5S implementation plan within the grinding and pelleting department at a plastic injection transformation company was carried out through constant training of employees and understanding the benefits that this powerful tool is capable of providing. The concept of the 5S methodology was born with the sole objective of facing the constant changes that organizations, regardless of their industry or business, must face today. This philosophy, which is part of continuous improvement, has been developed in different types of industries, which are found within highly competitive and world-class environments. In Japan, the concepts provided by each of the 5S have managed to form part of the business culture of the vast majority of companies in that country, so it becomes really difficult to find industries that are not familiar with this work philosophy.
