Hi,If hiring a new person is an issue then you may discuss with your management, interview a few people from the technical team and give them the responsibility of an HR SPOC. The person may get into a 50% technical & 50% HR role and ensure such bad practices do not occur in the work hours in which you are not available.Thanks,Anuradha

Hi,
In my view you can get open feedback from employees i.e. know identity who is giving which information then only you can judge the real situation and afterwards you can take necessary actions to improve the situations by hook or crook.

hi Vineet,
I personally feel you need HR representatie in night shift too.. to handle employee related issues ... which gives you the info. in the night shift and helps to design SOP and get it approved.... I am sure.. physical presence of an HR in the company should help you at first level and then placing systems, policies in place at next level.
All the best for the same and post the solution once issue is resolved

I suggest you to change the teams of every employee doing night shift. My experience is that changing the teams also changes the attitude towards work. The project managers are doing this to meet their own stats in a best way. Take an Issue when any sincere employee complains about this make the project managers answerable. Change the way of working ie. reports preparation, etc. There is a saying that you will continue to get the same If you keep doing the same.

Hi,
why don't you change your timings like 11am - 8 pm so that you can spend atleast two hours with second shift employees to get interact with them and know their problems.
Instead of going for new sop Educate all the project managers, supervisors, employees on policy matters.
If you don't handle it properly you will become anemy to them(all project managers) pls. handle with care. put it carefully before the top mgt/sr. mgt and explain how it damages the image/good will of the organisation.

HI Vineet,
If you can't hire another HR person, you can ask management to change work shifts of those people who are creating nuisance in night shift so that you can youself monitor them.
Above all, report all these things to management. See what management tells u.
May be that can help.

Hi,
I completely agree with the solutions provided by Asha, but again I would be little disagree on working in 2 shifts. As it would not be so easy to maintain this schedule. After 5 hrs of working, definitely exhaustment will dominate the brain. Yeah, if she works from 2pm to 10 pm than I think Asha's idea may work out.
But, again it might be very tough for a newly married woman to work in such a shift. Again its hard to convience management as well. It may again hamper her personal life.
So, Its better if you can convience management to hire someone under you, as you are the person who is directly responsible for display the well guide or future growth strategy for the organisation, atleast you can give a try.
Offcourse management would not like to let spoil the culture of the organisation.
Best of luck!

Hi Vineeth,
There could be two possible ways of countering the aforesaid issue:
1) Recruit a person to handle HR Function in the Night shift
2) Conduct an employee survey for both the shifts and try to identify their problems faced.
Finally, collate and submit the report to the Management to take a call on the prevailing practices as told by the Employees.

hey vineet
what i feel is that might be u may not have much powers to control whats happening in the shifts. but there's one way of gathering insider information. guess who can be your best source of information?
let me tell you, its office attenders, office boys, watchmen security people. basically sub staff. so first buy in these people in your confidence by hook or crook. then put them in the role of information suppliers. once they giving you information you can start gathering evidences regarding who's doing what. depending on the information gathered you can put your word before your superiors to give you more power to take actions like hiring a new hr subordinate or making team leader report you before taking any hiring and firing, etc.
this is how most of my head of the department does and its working for him most of the times. try out.
