# Set Company Office Hours
If you occasionally close up shop, then you might want to set your company's Office Hours in Help Scout. That way you can review data and automatically respond to customers based on the times you're open. This article is all about the Office Hours setting and its benefits.
Help Scout Account Owners and Administrators have permission to manage the Office Hours setting. See [User Roles and Permissions](https://5256150.hs-sites.com/knowledge/user-roles-and-permissions) for more information on that.

Choose whether you want the Office Hours to apply to All Mailboxes, or only certain ones.
### Office Hours and Reports
Use Office Hours to filter the Email Report and the User Report to help you gain more accurate insights into how quickly your team responds to your customers' email requests while business is in session.
