Both are correct:

The form boss's is the singular, possessive form of the singular noun boss.

Example: You will need the boss's authorization for that expense.

The form bosses is the plural form for the singular noun boss.

Example: How many bosses do your have?

Note: The plural possessive form is bosses'.

Example: The bosses' meeting is at ten.

What is the correct possessive form for uses?

Uses can be a verb-- third person singular of "to use." But the word can also be a plural noun (the singular is "use"-- you tell them apart because they are pronounced differently; the noun "use" is pronounced with an -SS sound, like YOOSS; the verb "use" is pronounced with a -Z sound, like YOOZZ). Generally, when you want to show a possessive for a plural noun, you use the apostrophe after the s: the bosses' cars; the restaurants' managers. It would not be likely for the noun "uses" to have a possessive, however.
