7. Aisleways Marking
Aisles and walkways are clearly delineated and can be identified at a glance. Lines are straight and at right angels with no chipped or soiled paint.
8. Aisleway Maintenance
Aisles are always free of material and obstructions. Nothing is ever placed on the lines. Objects are always placed at right angels to the lines.
9. Storage and Arrangement
Storage boxes, containers and materials are always neat and at right angle. When items are stacked, they are never crooked or in danger of toppling over.
10. Equipment Painting
All machines are painted and kept clean by routine care.
11. Equipment Cleanliness
Machines are kept clean and unsoiled by daily care. Glass (windows) and work surfaces are kept free from contamination. Guards and shields are used to keep dust and oil from falling on floor.
12. Equipment Maintenance
The controls of the machines are properly labeled and critical points for daily maintenance checks are clearly marked.
13. Tool and Material Storage
Nothing is placed on top of machines, cabinets or other equipment. Nothing leans against the walls or columns.
14. Document Storage
Only documents that are necessary to the work are stored at the work stations. Such documents and binders are stored in a neat and orderly manner.
15. Document Control
All documents are labeled clearly for content and responsibility for control and revision. No unlabeled binders or documents are present. Obsolete or unused documents are routinely purged.
16. Arrangement of Gages and Tools
Tools, jigs and fixtures are arranged neatly and stored in a way that they are kept clean and free from any risk of damage.
17. Ease of Access to Tools and Gages
Tools, jigs and fixtures are arranged in such a way that they can be easily accessed when changeovers or setups are made. The same is true of measuring equipment used to check quality.
18. Arrangement of Shelves and Desks
These are arranged, divided and clearly labeled such that it is obvious where things are stored and where they should be returned.
19. Upkeep of Shelves and Desks
These are kept free of unused objects, including files and documents. Tools and fixtures are cleaned before being replaced to proper position.
20. Sustaining 5S
A disciplined system of control and maintenance exists to ensure that each of the above items is maintained at its highest possible level. It is the responsibility of management to maintain this system.

Safety Evaluation Form Observations
1. Workstation Size 2. Accessibility of Tools, Controls and Materials
Score Criteria: 0-5 (Applied 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%) The workstation is adaptable to employee size (chairs, benches and shelves). When sitting, leg space should be sufficient. When standing, the space for feet should be sufficient. Materials and tools should be accessible with minimal twisting and extending of the body. The operator does not have to make movements above the shoulders, below the waistline or backwards.
3. Static Load and Fixed Posture
The operator does not extend / bend an arm or leg for long periods of time. They do not crook his head at extreme angles;, nor should they stand on one leg. A support is available when operator must keep and arm or leg extended for long periods of time.
4. Lifting Objects
Lifting and moving objects should be minimal. The operator must not lift heavy objects. Appropriate posture is used when lifting. The requirements for both precision and strength are avoided. When possible, handles are provided to lift heavy objects.
5. Load Transportation
The workstation is designed to eliminate the moving of non-essential materials. Mechanical assistance is available where required (conveyor belt, forklift, etc.)
6. Frequent Arm, Hand and Wrist Motions
The operator does not routinely handle heavy or large objects. Tooling and equipment does not transfer excessive vibrations. Tasks and tools do not create prolonged pressure at the base of the palm or at the finger tips. Wrists should not be stretched. The operator does not have to work with elevated shoulders or elbows.
7. Collison Risks
Forbidden passages and aisleways are closed or appropriately identified. Access to passageways are obstacle free. Railings are provided if needed. No fixed or prominent obstacles or sharp angles. Any angles or obstacles are well identified and protected.
8. Risks of Falling (Workers)
There is minimal work done on a raised platform. Railings are provided if needed. Obstacles of less than half-meter are marked. There should be not obstacles across the passageway. If there are, a gangway is installed. Electrical cables are suspended from adapted aerial supports.
9. Condition of the Floors
Machines and equipment are sealed from leaking. Tanks are provided to collect any condensation or accidental spills. Parts are dried before handling. When necessary, ground is covered with anti-slip products. Uneven ground surfaces are eliminated.
10. Risks of Falling (Objects) 11. Risk of Body or Objects being Caught in Moving Machine
Results
The operator has the appropriate equipment to lift heavy or encumbering loads or objects. The movement of the hoist should cover the entire work area. The piling of boxes, tools, parts, and other objects located at high levels is prohibited unless fenced in. Access to moving machine parts is protected by railings, guards, covering, etc. Work with hand tools on rotating areas is limited. Emergency stop devices are installed wherever there is a risk.
12. Risk of Crushing, Cuts, Punctures, or Abrasions
Risks are eliminated through process design, machine design, installation conditions and mechanical operation. Protection devices are used to ensure that the operator is not in the zone of operation when the machine is working. Safety switches, railings, and motion detectors are used as safety devices.
13. Risk of Flying Objects, Splashes or Explosions
Tools are appropriate and well designed for safety. Set-up part positioning, controls and fastening systems should be reliable and durable. Holding systems, screens or plastic drapes prevent the flying of parts, liquids and fragments. Vacuuming, brushing or wiping are used for cleaning purposes rather than using air to blow off.
14. Risk of Fire, Explosions or Burns
Products are stored based upon their characteristics and their incompatibilities. Metal components are grounded in the flammable products handling zone. Flammable wastes are stored in containers with special lids. Pipes and ducts with steam or other high temperature gases and liquids are isolated and clearly identified.
15. Lighting, Noise and Ventilations
The lighting level should be sufficient. Light sources should not be harsh or blinding. The operator should not be exposed to high levels of noise. Machines, Equipment and production processes capable of emitting dangerous or irritating products are equipped with suitable ventilation.
