# Business Hours

The daily working hours of teams/departments within an organization are called business hours. This, in turn, aids in assigning work based on users' working hours and setting and meeting SLAs. 

## **Add a Business Hour Profile**

When creating a profile, you could choose between specific working days/hours and 24/7 availability. 

Use the Exclude Hours option to add a break in the business hours. This can be the weekend, an official lunch hour/break time, or a change in the Technician's shift. SLAs are adjusted as needed. 

To view the complete list of holidays applicable to your region, add 'Holiday' or click on import holidays. 'Exclude hours and Holidays' are excluded while calculating SLAs for the ticket.
