Appointment of an occupier

As per factories Act, any Director of the Company can be the Occupier.

Therefore, we can nominate any Director as Occupier.

 Hello Mr.Hirak

Apart from agreeing to what Mr.Ankur said, In my view, Mr.X being in employment and drawing salary then he can be appointed

as Executive Director and not Non Executive. Non Executive Director would be one who will not be in employment but

would be attending Board meetings as and when and giving Advices out of specialized knowledge they possess.

So kindly look into that.

Other views solicited
