Allowance

Additional time added to basic or normal time for personal needs, fatigue and unavoidable delays.

Examples

01To the normal time of 2.0 minutes, the engineer adds an allowance of 12 % for personal needs, fatigue and short machine delays.
02The works council and engineering review the allowance for the hot foundry area, which is higher because of heat stress.
03After air conditioning is installed at the furnace, the fatigue allowance is reduced and the standard time is updated.
