Work Profile for mobile devices (Android device)
A work profile can be set up on an Android device to separate work apps and data from personal apps and data. With a work profile, you can securely and privately use the same device for work and personal purposes—your organization manages your work apps and data while your personal apps, data, and usage remain private.
Depending on your administrator's level of device management, you might need to install an app that enforces security policies on your device or a work profile.
First, we need to ensure that the Advanced Mobile Management in the admin console is enabled.
Go to admin console> Then select Devices> Under that select Settings> Then choose Universal settings> Click on the first option General> Select Mobile Management> Select the OU in which the user is part of> Make it advanced under mobile management.
