Dear Nidhi,
Greetings!!!
It's not that difficult, you just have to have an appointment with your MD.
You can make a small write up on what all policies need to be prepared and implemented in order to successfully run this org.
You can ask for some sort of non interference/independence in your activities , and i am sure your MD will listen and respond.

Taking further to what Teamgrouphr said, sometimes you may not be able to discuss things threadbare in a brief or a hurried meeting and make the top management see the reason in your suggestions. Then a write up will be of help as it permits you the space and time to provide a clear picture and the executives can go through it at a time convenient to them even while travelling or on a holiday and can grasp your point of view. You can prepare a beautiful note prepared in crisp and lucid language which shall make reading pleasant. It should not be an argumentative document but one that discusses the issues straight and direct. It can be divided into the following sections/paras.

1) Object of the note :- Here you can simply state that this note is placed to invite the kind attention of the concerned executive to the need to standardize certain policies, practices and procedures in the company with regard to the work and conduct of the employees.

2) Rationale for standardizing policies, practices and procedures. :- Here you can say :

a) A business organization will have certain goals and mission. These goals and mission need to be met within certain time lines and these time lines cannot be adhered without a consistent performance from the employees. A consistent performance is not possible if every employee works at his own sweet time and will. There should be some work ethics and minimum discipline at work place that is uniformly applicable to employees to drive performance to achieve these goals and time lines. The employees be made known about these goals, mission and philosophy of the organization to foster the feelings of team spirit and commitment among them

b)A business organization shall also abide by the labour laws applicable to them. For example the Factories Act or the Shops Act and the Maternity Benefit Act provide for leave to be given to employees. Therefore a leave policy needs to be framed.

c) Similarly, the law on termination prescribes certain boundaries within which an employer can terminate the services of an employee therefore an organization needs to frame policies on appointment probation and discipline and misconduct etc.

3) In view of the above business processes and statutory and legal compulsions , we may frame the following policies to stat with;

1) Organizational goals, mission statement and philosophy.

2) Attendance and punctuality, working hours, rest intervals, holidays

3)Leave policy

4) Misconduct and disciplinary policy.

And you can add any other policy to suit your needs.

The above draft is only suggestive in nature to provide some direction to your effort and answer to your query. . you can improve and modify to suit your organization al needs.

Hope this helps.

====Dear Nidhi,
It is very difficult to work with a boss who does not understand the important of "rules, policies and systems" and on the other hand he is depending on the other senior staff instead of depending on HR (where there is a possibility of misguiding for their selfish desires).
My suggestion is display all the staff names those who are not swiping their attendance and communicate that Leave will be marked on non-swiped days and within no time they will try to change themselves. On the other hand put up a note to your boss, seeking his time to spare for some time and explain him your difficulties while pay roll processing. Slowly, he will understand the things and chances are there that he would give you full authority to take decision of making Loss of pay to erring employees.
