الفائض الحر
Explanation:
وفى حالات خاصة ، قد ترغب الإدارة فى الاستفادة من الوقت الفائض ، وذلك عن طريق تأخير بداية نشاط معين به فائض . وغالباً ما يحدث فى مثل هذه الحالات أن تتأخر بدايات الأنشطة التالية لذلك النشاط ، إلا أنه فى بعض الحالات ، يمكن تأخير بداية نشاط معين دون المساس بتأخير البداية لأى نشاط آخر . وفى هذه الحالة يسمى الوقت الفائض باسم ( الفائض الحر Free Slack ).
