Thats the fault of Management, not the employee. Those employees should never be late because they sought have a later start and end time than everyone else.

For example, my wife is on first shift at her job so that she is home with the kids in the evening. Im on second shift so that I can get them up and ready for school in the morning.

Abs at your job, not everyone should need to come in and get off at the same time. This has several benefits:

• You can stagger lunches so there is always coverage. Nothing is not annoying as a customer than waking up a door and seeing Out for lunch. Like everyone?
• Employees dont have to both open and close the business. This puts less stress on them.
• The late shift employees can stay after core hours to do data entry, record keeping, closing the books for the day, and stocking and cleaning.

In short, those employees should never be late. Theyre schedules should be adjusted accordingly.

As far as weekends go, it should be either rotational with the schedule made weeks in advance, or everyone should have work either Saturday or Sunday, with the days being tradable, or there should be a dedicated weekend crew who makes a weekend premium (15%) to work 12 hour shits Fri through Sunday or 10 hour shifts Fri thru Monday.

And any employee that cant work with those constraints can find employment elsewhere.
