Waste Reduction

Often when the term "Waste" is used in industry many think of scrap.

It is true that scrap is a waste but there are other forms of waste in our businesses.

The "8 Deadly Wastes" to be reduced or eliminated are:

  • Overproduction
  • Waiting
  • Unnecessary Material Handling
  • Inappropriate Processing
  • Unnecessary Inventory
  • Unnecessary Motion
  • Defects and Correction
  • Lost Human Creativity

The key is to ensure that all in the organisation can "see" these forms of waste and that they are able to reduce or eliminate them.
