5S practice aims to create a clean, orderly, and efficient work environment. The existing form of delivery of 5S practices is less attractive to students because it is only delivered in front of workshops and laboratories with unclear writing and long explanations. Therefore, the objective of this study is to develop and evaluate the applicability of interactive comics based on 5S practices to enhance students' understanding of safety in workshops and laboratories at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sultan Abdul Aziz, Teluk Intan. This research study has used quantitative methods to collect data from the respondents. The design of the interactive comic is based on the ADDIE Model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Through the research that has been conducted, the sample for this study involved 260 students who used the workshop and laboratory at SMK Sultan Abdul Aziz. The data obtained was analysed using frequency analysis to obtain the mean value and standard deviation using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 27. The results of the study show 5S Practical Interactive Comic Evaluation has a mean of 4.462 and a standard deviation of 0.380, followed by animation rating (mean: 4.453; standard deviation: 0.416) and overall satisfaction of the 5S Practical Interactive Comic (mean: 4.502; standard deviation: 0.403). This study shows that students are more interested in reading and understanding the 5S practice in the form of interactive comics than in the conventional form. This study also shows that this interactive comic of 5S practices provides the benefits and importance of implementing 5S practices clearly. With this, it can be concluded that the development of interactive comics of 5S practices can help teachers to explain 5S practices to students more interactively.
