The aim of the research is to analyze the use of the 5S method on the example of a selected company. The scope of work covered the years 2013-2017. Research methods are: analysis of enterprise data, employee opinion survey, participation in audits. One of the ways to maintain a proper level of order and cleanliness according to the 5S method in the factory is to confirm compliance by conducting an audit. Inspections are carried out on two levels. One of them is an internal audit, which is carried out by a foreman who works at a given hall. The second level is an external audit, which is carried out by employees of other halls. Teams with the best results are rewarded with incentive bonuses. The first audit in 2013 at the enterprise showed that the state of order is unsatisfactory. Therefore, corrective actions have been developed and implemented. Analyzing the data in subsequent research periods -up to 2017, it can be stated that due to the introduced changes, the results of all audits, increased.
