Updated November 16, 2023: We have updated the content below with additional information.
We are thrilled to announce exciting product enhancements on frontline managers-controlled privacy settings for frontline workers.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID: 152119
[When this will happen:]
We will roll out in November 2023.
[How this will affect your organization:]
Frontline managers now have the power to manage shift information visibility for their employees through the newly available privacy controls in Shifts settings.
Here’s what this feature includes:
- Limited Past Views: Managers can restrict how far back frontline workers can view their co-workers’ schedules, ensuring historical data privacy.
- Generic Time Off View: Frontline workers can see their co-workers’ time off in a generic way, without viewing the specific reasons and notes.
- Limited Shift Details: Managers can limit the level of detail frontline workers can access about their co-workers’ schedules, excluding sensitive information like Shift notes, activities and break durations.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
There is nothing you need to do to prepare for these changes, besides you may want to notify your frontline managers about these updates.
