1. Is a documented scoring criteria in place for 5S audits, defining what constitutes each score level (1–5) in objective, observable terms — not left to auditor interpretation?
2. Is the 5S audit conducted area by area, with a separate score per zone rather than a single facility-wide score that masks underperforming areas?
3. Are scoring criteria applied consistently by all auditors, with inter-rater calibration conducted periodically to minimise scoring variance between different observers?
4. Is the audit conducted on an unannounced or semi-announced basis, ensuring scores reflect actual working conditions rather than pre-prepared compliance?
5. Are photographs taken of all non-compliant findings during the audit, providing before evidence that can be compared against after-correction photos at closure?
6. Are photos labelled with zone, date, and finding description — not filed as a generic batch of unmarked images — supporting clear traceability?
7. Is every non-compliance finding recorded in a structured format (zone, criterion, score, description, photo reference) rather than as narrative notes only?
8. Are non-compliance findings from the current audit compared against the previous audit, to identify whether prior findings have been sustained or have recurred?
9. Is a named responsible person assigned for each non-compliance finding at the time of the audit, not deferred to a later administrative process?
10. Is the responsible person someone with authority to implement the correction in their zone, not a generic assignment to a department or team?
