  • Hours and Staffing:
    • Start Time: The time of day that the shift started.
    • End Time: The time of day that the shift ended.
    • Work Period: The duration of the shift calculated from the start and end times.
    • Coffee / Lunch Break Duration: The two input fields, from left to right, specify the total amount of time allocated to coffee and lunch breaks respectively on the shift.
    • Hours Worked: The number of hours worked on the selected shift. This amount is calculated based on the total work period minus the coffee and lunch break duration.
    • Hours Paid: The number of hours paid for staff. This is calculated as the work period minus the total lunch break duration.
  • Efficiency:
    • Hogs Graded: The number of hogs graded over the total shift.
    • Chain Speed: The number of hogs per hour that are being processed.
    • Average Line Speed: The calculated average line speed in hogs per hour.
    • Efficiency: The calculated efficiency of the selected shift. This is calculated as the average line speed (ALS) divided by the chain speed (CS).
    • CS = 18, ALS = 14, 14/18=0.78 or 78% efficiency
    • Carcass Split Passrate: Input field for entering the passrate for splitting the carcass in two.
  • General Comments: A space for comments on the selected shift and date.
