A '''time limit''' or '''deadline''' is a fixed point in time or a bounded time interval, by which a task or objective must be completed. Once that time has passed, the item may be considered overdue (for example, a work project or [[school assignment]]). In a professional context, missing a deadline can negatively affect an employee's [[performance evaluation]], while in education, late submissions such as [[essay]]s or reports may result in grade deductions. |
