	  $_SESSION['SESS__dept']=$employee['department_name'];
	  $_SESSION['SESS_rank']=$employee['rank'];
      
      session_write_close();
	  if 
	  ($_SESSION['SESS_rank']=="admin")
	  {
      header("location: administrator.php");
      exit();
	  }
	  
	  elseif ($_SESSION['SESS_dept']=="molding")
     	 {
			if($_SESSION['SESS_rank']=="shift incharge")
	  		{
	  		header ("location: Shift_incharge.php");
	  
	 	 	exit();
	  		}

You have a syntax error in your code. First you declare this:

$_SESSION['SESS__dept']=$employee['department_name'];//error here, remove one underscore from the SESS__dept

But then you use this:

elseif ($_SESSION['SESS_dept']=="molding")

Your SESS_dept has two underscores ('_ _') when you initialize it.

Just remove one underscore from the first one.

Is that your entire code for the script?

If it is, you're missing a closing key '}' at the end
