Results Findings show that the previously unfavorable working conditions of employees have now improved and can be further improved by implementing 5Ss. The results show that if the subsidiary has an increase in financial performance, it can be seen from the overall average value of Assets = 0.00103 and the GPM value = 0.547 is higher than before. Conclusion Increased work efficiency and effectiveness are well-coordinated and work quality and safety are well-maintained. Then the financial performance changed greatly, which initially declined due to the weakness of the 5S work culture, has now drastically improved thanks to the 5S work culture that was successfully strengthened.
