Navigating Director Privileges: Should Shift Policies Differ for Startup Leaders?

Hello All, my company is a startup, and we have a total of 7 employees, including 2 Directors. The problem is my CEO didn't mention any specific instructions to me regarding concessions for the directors. Therefore, I am applying all the policies to them just like I do for all other employees.

Do directors have concessions in shift timings and other aspects?

I am new to the HR field. Every time I inform them, they haven't started tracking their shift timings, which is compulsory for all employees as attendance and payroll are calculated based on that. These 2 directors stand out, while I am just doing my duty. Please suggest what I can do in this case.

Hi Sayali, the Directors should each have their own "Directors Contracts," which should list their legal responsibilities as Directors as well as their "day-to-day" activities. If their pay is calculated by way of the tracker, then they must adhere to the policy. However, the policy can be changed in consultation with the Directors and owners of the business (if different). There must be clarity; this will protect all parties in case of any dispute in the future.

Hope the above helps.
