MANILA — The Department of Science and Technology-National Capital Region (DOST-NCR) will conduct a seminar for micro, small, medium enterprises (MSMEs) on Wednesday (March 6) in Quezon City, which is aimed at helping them have a more organized and efficient workplace.
The seminar, dubbed as the “Japanese 5S Workshop,” seeks to address the MSMEs’ needs in maintaining and sustaining an organized workplace for improved efficiency, a DOST-NCR staff told the Philippine News Agency (PNA) through email on Monday.
In this seminar, participants will be taught five organization methods that use five Japanese words namely seiri (sort), seiton (set in order), seiso (shine), seiketsu (standardize) and shitsuke (sustain).
This is not the first time that the DOST-NCR will conduct this kind of seminar.
Seminars are being facilitated by the DOST-NCR staff and trained in-house experts.
According to DOST-NCR, it would accommodate as many participants as it can.
This seminar is open to any interested MSMEs, although priority will be given to those from the NCR.
“DOST regional offices have similar activities and programs to cater to MSMEs in their respective regions,” the staff explained.
Meanwhile, interested MSMEs may visit eventbrite.com to register for the seminar.
