Summary

Some people are already back to the office; some people don't plan to go back, ever. And a big chunk of the workforce is in between—working from home some days, heading into the office on others. Google Calendar has added a feature specifically with this in mind: work locations, which allows users to specify whether they're working from home, at the office, or somewhere else on any given day. This lets coworkers know when you will or won't be available for in-person meetings and generally keeps everyone's schedules organized. The feature is part of Google Workspace and requires personal Google accounts to access. Users can customize their work locations, set default locations for weekdays, and choose whether to display working hours. By setting your work location in Google Calendar, users can more easily communicate with colleagues about availability and schedule meetings accordingly.
