Dear Syboriba,
Thank you for your interest. You can find several articles on my website designed to enhance knowledge, as well as a book that provides detailed information, perhaps even too much. Currently, I am developing a 6-hour online course for executives and managers, which will teach precisely what to do and what not to do, and explain why certain actions are right while others are wrong.
Best regards,
Ben

Dear Ben,
One of your earlier queries on 'What is 5S' had gone unanswered. I think it refers to the Japanese method of systematic practice. There are 5 words beginning with 'S' in the Japanese language, and often the short form of 5S is popular. They stand for:
1. Sort
2. Set
3. Shine
4. Standardize
5. Sustain

Thanks for that, V.Raghunathan. I had not come across that before. It seems that my reply is too short, so I am adding a few words to get it posted. Best regards, Ben

Hi Neha,
It is great to hear that you have joined a manufacturing unit. Usually, in manufacturing, every small employee engagement activity is highly appreciated by employees. Below is the list of activities you can do in a manufacturing unit:
1. Safety Week in the first week of March - During this week, you can organize various activities each day. For example, you can conduct a painting competition with a safety theme to raise awareness, followed by an exhibition of the artwork. Additionally, you can arrange games related to safety awareness, provide fire extinguisher training, and hold yoga sessions, among other activities.
2. 5S Programme: "5S" is a Japanese principle focused on maintaining cleanliness in the workplace or shop floor. You can conduct a competition among departments and announce a winner.
3. Sports Day: This is always a popular event in factories.
4. Kaizen (Continuous Improvement): Encourage employees to suggest improvements in processes. Further information on this concept can be found online.
5. In addition to the above, you can also organize events such as Traditional Day, Indo-Western Day, Color Day, Secret Santa during Christmas, and more.
Feel free to email me at mzsmruti@gmail.com if you need any further assistance.
Thanks & Regards, Smruti Agrawal

I agree with Bensimo, engagement is not about activities. It's about how employees are treated by management and how well management meets their basic needs.
Listed below are a few employee engagement activities that will help the manufacturing industry to get more engaged employees:
- Strengthen Communication
- Focus on Training and Development
- Provide Flexibility
- Appreciate Employees
- Encourage Innovation
- Give Fair Treatment and Respect
- Connect to Bigger Goals
