The recognition of the diversity of Gender Identities has gained ground in recent years – there are of course a variety of points of view and it is an issue that should be addressed in the workplace.
Chulalongkorn University has supported and promoted the importance of gender diversity recognition and respect for the individual. No matter which gender (if any) the staff member chooses to go by, all are equally important to, and recognized by, the university.

Good Experiences Working at Chulalongkorn University
What Do You Want to Say about Chulalongkorn University, as an LGBTQ+ Representative?
I think all people should look at others as being equals. If we look at others as an equal, that is a good start and other issues such as welfare, marriage and vacations are not an issue.
Nirutra, or Atom, has represented one voice for gender diversity as a member of Chulalongkorn University staff, which has shown that the university has adapted to accept the changing diversity on campus. Educational institutes must be open to change – with new policies, including work evaluation and promotion – with no gender discrimination.
This is one voice representing gender diversity amongst Chulalongkorn University’s staff. At present, educational institutes are open and ready to adapt and respond to changes in society. This is also a reflection that as diversity is becoming more recognized and accepted, the university has to adjust and adapt its existing policies – including work evaluation and promotion – without discrimination in evaluating their employees’ performances. Other than work-related issues, Chulalongkorn University has realized the importance of living conditions for staff with gender differences by creating new welfare policies. For example, providing health insurance for a same-sex partner, as the regular group insurance does not provide benefits to them. In addition, the university has provided more all-gender restrooms across the campus and continues to investigate ways to make the campus a better place for all.
