How to communicate with a newcomer who is confused about "Which is okay, red or green?"
Training for New Employees in Manufacturing: Education to Clearly Communicate the Meaning of Colors to Prevent Inspection Errors
In the electrical inspection process, there are many instances where visual information, such as the color of indicator lights and the readings of measuring instruments, serves as the basis for pass/fail judgments. However, it has been observed that new operators often become confused, saying, "I don't know which is a pass, red or green," leading to incorrect decisions. ● They do not accurately understand the meaning of the indicator light colors. ● Their reading of the measuring instrument's values is ambiguous. ● The criteria for pass/fail judgments are not clearly communicated. These issues stem from unclear inspection standards and insufficient training, which can significantly impact product quality and safety. To ensure that new operators correctly understand the meanings of indicator light colors and measuring instrument readings and can make appropriate judgments in the electrical inspection process, it is essential to provide clear education on the meanings of visual information. By sharing clear standards and procedures and reviewing the training system, we can stabilize quality. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
basic information
Proposal for Solutions | Strengthening Education to Clearly Convey the Meaning of Visual Information To ensure that new workers correctly understand visual information and make appropriate judgments, the following measures are effective: ● Clearly communicate the meanings of indicator light colors: Explain the meanings of colors, such as red for abnormal and green for normal. ● Educate on how to read measurement instrument indications: Teach the range of indications, units, and criteria for pass/fail judgments in detail. ● Document the criteria for pass/fail judgments: Develop inspection standards and explain them using specific examples and photographs. Through these initiatives, new workers can accurately grasp visual information, leading to expected stabilization of quality.

Implementation Steps | Review and Establishment of the Education System STEP 1 | Understanding Current Issues Analyze the occurrence and causes of past inspection errors to grasp the overall picture of the problems. STEP 2 | Review of the Education System Establish an education system that clearly communicates the meanings of the indicator light colors, how to read the measurement device's displayed values, and the criteria for pass/fail judgments. STEP 3 | Implementation of Education and Follow-Up Introduce the new education system and conduct regular training and follow-up. STEP 4 | Verification of Effectiveness and Improvement Monitor the occurrence of inspection errors after implementation and make adjustments or improvements as necessary.

Introduction of Success Stories | 60% Reduction in Inspection Errors through Educational Review In the electrical inspection process of a manufacturing company, new operators frequently made inspection errors because they did not understand the meanings of the colors of the indicator lights and the readings on the measuring instruments. Therefore, the following measures were implemented: ● Clearly communicate the meanings of the indicator light colors: Explain the meanings of colors, such as red for abnormal and green for normal. ● Educate on how to read the measuring instrument's readings: Specifically teach the range of readings, units, and criteria for pass/fail judgments. ● Document the criteria for pass/fail judgments: Develop inspection standards and explain them using specific examples and photos. As a result of these initiatives, inspection errors were reduced by 60%, leading to stabilized quality.
