TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about traveling to Cambodia while holding a valid work permit in Thailand and whether it would cause any issues when returning. Responses clarified that the work permit itself does not restrict travel, but emphasized the importance of checking visa status and securing a re-entry permit if necessary to maintain any Extensions of Stay.

You should look inside your passport, with an Extension of Stay you need a re-entry permit to keep your Extension.

Thanks, a Work Permit allows you to work inside Thailand. Has nothing to do with travelling to other countries, but your employer need to agree you take days off for holiday.

What is a working visa? Or you have the Non Immigrant B visa OR you have an Extension of Stay based on working. Take a look in the passport and explain us which one you have. This are examples of both:
