Lean methods can increase not only productivity and quality but also safety in your lab

Lean principles help to systematically enforce order in the workplace down to the smallest detail, and they have typically been applied to heighten productivity, enhance quality, lower production costs and improve profitability. But can these principles also enhance safety? Discover how lean principles, appropriately applied, can increase not only productivity and quality but also safety in your lab.

This white paper will explore how the lean method known as “5S +1”, by helping labs establish efficient workflows, can help enhance not only process efficiency and analytical quality but also safety.
