What’s changing
Since announcing the ability to share where you’re working from directly on Google Calendar, we’ve introduced features that enable better planning around in-person collaboration and meeting coordination, especially in a hybrid work environment. A few include:
- Office Building support for Working Locations
- Encouraging Working Location coverage across organizations
- Increasing efficiency through better meeting room management with room release
Today, we’re adding an update that helps you easily define your work location much quicker with suggested working locations based on your recent locations.
Getting started
- Admins: Working location is ON by default and can be disabled at the domain or OU level. Visit the Help Center to learn more about turning working location on or off for users.
- End users: Suggested working locations will appear when setting a custom working location. Visit the Help Center to learn more about setting your working hours & location.
