Microsoft Outlook's new feature will allow users to see colleagues' office presence, potentially complicating work from home arrangements, as it relies on their Work Hours and Location settings.
The 'always on' feature indicates that employees may have less flexibility regarding their in-office availability, which could lead to uncomfortable situations when colleagues expect them to be present.
Since its introduction in December 2021, Outlook has aimed to improve hybrid working by allowing users to specify their working locations, offering a more flexible work schedule.
With large companies like Dell mandating their teams to return to the office, the debate around hybrid work and its impact on productivity continues to be controversial.
