I think what they mean is that if you can make it to work, they need work to be done. If you can't, then nobody's going to be pissed off.
I don't want to sound like a dick, but you are aware that life must go on, right? At some point, it will be business as usual. Companies aren't going to just turn off the lights and take a week off. This flood sucks, but the world is still turning. No need to make it worse by shutting down needlessly.

And I'm pretty sure that most employers are going to be sympathetic to people who were directly affected by this flood. If your wardrobe and razor is currently submerged, you're probably allowed to take a few days off. If you live in Bridlewood, and the extent of your inconvenience is having to transfer from the train to a bus, then you should probably get your ass to work and cover for the people that are at home pumping water out of their houses.
