Google Calendar will let you record where you’re working to help organize office meetings

Google has announced that it will add a feature to its Calendar service that allows you to show where you are working on any day of the week. For users with selected Google Workspace plans, the feature will begin rolling out on August 30th. It will be available via the Calendars settings menu along with its existing working hours options. The available work locations are Office, Home and Unspecified.
Google claims that the new option will make it easier to plan in person collaboration and set expectations in a hybrid workspace. This is in response to the rise in popularity of hybrid work due to the pandemic. Employees have had to track not only their working hours but also their locations when planning meetings in person and other events. This new Google Calendars feature will help.

Google claims that the new working location feature will automatically be disabled by default. However, users can choose to enable it once it begins rolling out at the end. It will be available at the following tiers: Google Workspace Business Standard Standard, Business Plus Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Standard and Enterprise Plus. Education Plus, Education Plus. Nonprofits, G Suite Business. It won't be available to G Suite Basic customers as well as customers who have the Google Workspace Essentials Business Starter, Enterprise Essentials and Education Fundamentals plans.
