Tips for using it
- Poor housekeeping causes many trips and blocked exits, and it's quick to fix.
- Give each cleanup to a named person and a day, not to "the crew."
- Write down what failed and who will fix it by when. A failed item with no owner often comes back.
- Edit the list to match your site and your procedures before you use it with a crew.
