5S

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Manufacturing Safet Manual
Hola, colegas.

En una capacitación que estoy traduciendo sobre seguridad en el trabajo, aparece «5S». Por ejemplo en esta frase: Maintain Your Area – Practice 5S.
Encontré qué significan las 5 eses (ver enlace), pero quería saber si en las fábricas se suele usar ese término o si hay otro que use palabras en español.

5S is a system for instilling order and cleanliness in the workplace. The S’s stand for:

Seiri or sort
Seiton or straighten
Seiso or shine
Seiketsu or standardize
Shitsuke or sustain
As translated, the Japanese terms mean the following:

Seiri – Put things in order (Remove what is not needed and keep what is needed)
Seiton – Proper arrangement (Place things in such a way that they can be easily reached whenever they are needed)
Seiso – Clean (Keep things clean and polished; no trash or dirt in the workplace)
Seiketsu – Purity (Maintain cleanliness after cleaning – perpetual cleaning)
Shitsuke – Commitment (A typical teaching and attitude toward any undertaking to inspire pride and adherence to standards)
An alternative translation and meaning of these terms may be found in The Improvement Book by Tomo Sugiyama:

Sorting – Good and bad, useable and non-useable
Systematic arrangement – Once sorted, keep systematically to have traceability
Spic and span – Keep arranged things always ready-to-use, dirt-free and tidy
Standardize – Make a process for the above three stages, create measures and review them
Self-discipline – Individual commitment

Muchas gracias de antemano,

método de las 5S

He encontrado las siguientes traducciones de los términos en la página web de la Escuela de Organización Industrial de Madrid y me parecen bastante acertadas:

Seiri o clasificación
Seiton o orden
Seiso o limpieza
Seiketsu o normalización
Shitsuke o disciplina

agree Javier Canals : 5S, o 5s o 5's son de uso habitual, aunque la traducción al castellano de los 5 principios no corresponda a esas iniciales
