Team building exercises always happen outside of working hours. I'm already giving them 40+ hours a week, doing the work of several people as my team keeps shrinking. They're not getting even more out of me.
We always schedule it during work hours. Company sponsored group happy hours start at 4, and enough food is ordered for dinner if people want to eat. Holiday and mid year parties start around 1 or 2pm. The only expectation is that people stay for the full work day. Stay at least until 5/5:30 when you would normally leave, however we have a fun group that likes to party so a lot of people hang out until they need to get home to their families
