Note: SoWork will automatically determine your timezone, but you can manually set it.


But wait - how do I view a teammate's working hours?

Great question! There are two ways to do this - you can hover over their avatar and select View Profile. In this window, you'll see the hours they typically work displayed above the About section.

You can also access this menu by clicking on their avatar and selecting View Profile.
