Employee emails to be sent during working hours

Please can emails to staff, for example return to work reminders, be sent during typical working hours, eg after 9am? When staff have emails on their personal devices, receiving email notifications at 4:30am in the morning is not ideal.

Describe the Challenge Employees rest time not being interrupted.

    This idea/request was posted in February 2025, is there any update on this at all now it's over a year later? If you can set up Ripple's to wait and begin on weekdays at specific times, why would it be so hard to change the timing of emails sent automatically from the system?

    I believe we should have the option to pick and choose which notifications we want the system to send out, be able to modify them and also choose when they are sent.

    Preference would be to be able to select the time and date each notification/ripple needs to be sent.

    Ideally we should have this in settings and be able to set what time/day for general notifications to go

    if the weekly notifications could also be during working time instead of Sunday afternoon that would be great too

    I raised this with the help desk a couple of months ago as we had a similar issue, staff who use their own phones where getting notification emails on a Sunday evening, which they didn't like - was told there was nothing they could do other than turning off all notifications, which isn't what we want to do.

    I am getting emails at 04:33 in the morning. Please can they be sent during office hours.
