standard deduction for salaried person

I need to know whether standard deduction of Rs.40000 is per employer or is overall limit irrespective of employer.
In computation of income it's considering only 40000 irrespective of no. of employment

1. Standard deduction is per se, employee specific and employer specific. According to sec Sec 16(ia) standard deduction of Rs. 40,000 (FY 2018-19) is available as a deduction for individuals receiving salary income. 
2. Hence, Rs. 40,000 deduction will be applicable for salary income and not on employer basis. 
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view. 

Its not important whether you work at one place or 10 place....you have get only Rs. 40,000 as deduction per year😊
