Hot Desking is a feature that allows your business the practice of not assigning permanent desks in a workplace, so that employees may work at any available desk.
From a managerial perspective, Hot Desking is attractive because it can cut overhead costs significantly. However, the concept won’t work in environments where employees are expected to be in the office most of the time. * Hot Desking must be configured before using, please see your system administrator or open a ticket with support before attempting to use.
