What are work schedules?

Workspace owners and admins can set their organization's work schedule by selecting which days and hours employees are expected to work. You can add holidays and other company-wide non-working days.

When you're scheduling tasks and managing projects throughout your Workspace, the work schedule is taken into account, so your tasks won't start or be due on a non-working day.
