Zoho Corporation has asked a majority of its employees to work from home for two weeks starting 16 March, citing operational considerations and the need to reduce commuting during ongoing fuel-supply disruptions.
According to an internal communication, employees who are not part of business-critical functions have been encouraged to work remotely during this period. The company said the temporary arrangement is intended to ease travel pressures and help employees manage potential transportation challenges.
Employees working in essential or critical operational roles have been advised to coordinate with their managers regarding their work-from-office schedules. For staff required to be present at office locations, Zoho said that facilities will remain open, although some services will operate in a limited capacity.
For example, office cafeterias will continue functioning but with a restricted menu during the two-week period.
The decision comes at a time when several parts of the country have reported concerns about fuel availability, affecting daily commuting and logistics for workers in some sectors.
Zoho indicated that it will closely monitor the situation and provide further updates to employees if conditions change. The temporary work-from-home arrangement reflects how companies are adjusting workplace policies in response to external disruptions that affect employees’ day-to-day travel and operations.
