Aplicação do programa 5S no canteiro de obra

Abstract

Quality programs have become frequent in the increasingly competitive market. Therefore, a company that wants to remain competitive must adjust its products to quality standards and compatible prices. To reach these standards, companies have been seeking these quality programs to standardize their productions, always looking to improve products or services quality and lower its costs. An alternative is the 5S Principles, which provides an application method based on five basic steps, enabling behavior change and an improved work environment. This paper presents a case study with the implementation of the 5S principles in a construction site in the city of Campo Mourão - PR, in order to evaluate the impacts that the program may have within the construction area. For the implementation there were previous knowledge surveys and training of the staff, sensitization of the team about the importance of the program and monitoring in the implementation period. As a result, we could see a considerable improvement in the work environment concerning the cleanliness and organization of the construction site, making the environment safer and more productive.
