11.4.3) Allow remote working
Promote or allow telecommuting or remote working for employees as a matter of policy or standard practice, or offer a condensed working week to reduce employee commuting.

TKU values the welfare of its colleagues, offering the option of working remotely and working from home, and shortening working hours during certain periods. Relevant practices include:

1. Split operations: Since March 2020, in response to the epidemic situation of infectious diseases COVID-19, the school has implemented the “Contingency Measures for 'Serious Special Infectious Pneumonia'” which stipulates the provisions for the diversion of remote offices. During the national elevation of the COVID-19 epidemic to Level 3 alert in 2021, the school implemented remote work and split operations (Group A/Group B) to reduce group clustering and lower the probability of epidemic transmission.

2. Teleworking: To promote a paperless campus and cope with the needs of split operations during the epidemic period, the university has partnered with Microsoft to use systems such as MS365 and MS Azure to create an all-cloud campus. Courses include MS Teams operations and applications, remote desktop connectivity, software cloud operations and other related courses to help faculty and staff familiarize themselves with remote office related tools and operations.

3. Shorter working hours during winter/summer vocation: Employees of the school will enjoy two weeks off during the school’s winter vacation and one week during summer vacation. In addition, during summer vacation time, the working hours are shortened to 28 hours a week, which is 12 hours lesser than the statutory hours.
