Rajamangala University of Technology Srivijaya (RUTS) implemented temporary work-from-home arrangements in response to severe flooding in southern Thailand. On 20 November 2025, the university issued an official announcement allowing eligible staff to perform their duties remotely when flooding affected their residences or disrupted their ability to travel to work.
To address the continuing impact of the flooding, RUTS subsequently extended the work-from-home arrangements from 1 to 5 December 2025. The extension applied to employees whose residences had been affected by flooding or whose travel routes had been cut off, preventing them from commuting to their workplaces.
Under these arrangements, staff were required to request permission to work from home, subject to approval by the heads of their respective units. Approval was conditional on ensuring that assigned duties could be performed without adversely affecting the operations of the unit.
Through these official measures, RUTS enabled eligible employees to continue performing their duties remotely during the flooding emergency, reducing the need for affected staff to travel under unsafe or inaccessible conditions while maintaining the continuity of university operations.
