The efficiency and safety of rental providers matter customers. These factors have significant impact on their experience, affecting the condition of the equipment they rent and perhaps even the price customers pay. Being 5S certified is one way to signal to rental customers that your company is committed to operational efficiency and their well-being.
5S at United Rentals
At United Rentals, 5S is not a one-time activity to clean the shop. It is a component of the company’s “safety first and always” culture, which is instilled in every employee.
