Python Class - Employee Management System

Python Class Real-life Problem: Exercise-1 with Solution

Write a Python class Employee with attributes like emp_id, emp_name, emp_salary, and emp_department and methods like calculate_emp_salary, emp_assign_department, and print_employee_details.

Sample Employee Data:
"ADAMS", "E7876", 50000, "ACCOUNTING"
"JONES", "E7499", 45000, "RESEARCH"
"MARTIN", "E7900", 50000, "SALES"
"SMITH", "E7698", 55000, "OPERATIONS"

• Use 'assign_department' method to change the department of an employee.
• Use 'print_employee_details' method to print the details of an employee.
• Use 'calculate_emp_salary' method takes two arguments: salary and hours_worked, which is the number of hours worked by the employee. If the number of hours worked is more than 50, the method computes overtime and adds it to the salary. Overtime is calculated as following formula:

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

class Employee:
    def __init__(self, name, emp_id, salary, department):
        self.name = name
        self.id = emp_id
        self.salary = salary
        self.department = department

    def calculate_salary(self, salary, hours_worked):
        overtime = 0
        if hours_worked > 50:
            overtime = hours_worked - 50
        self.salary = self.salary + (overtime * (self.salary / 50))

    def assign_department(self, emp_department):
        self.department = emp_department

    def print_employee_details(self):
        print("\nName: ", self.name)
        print("ID: ", self.id)
        print("Salary: ", self.salary)
        print("Department: ", self.department)
        print("----------------------")


employee1 = Employee("ADAMS", "E7876", 50000, "ACCOUNTING")
employee2 = Employee("JONES", "E7499", 45000, "RESEARCH")
employee3 = Employee("MARTIN", "E7900", 50000, "SALES")
employee4 = Employee("SMITH", "E7698", 55000, "OPERATIONS")

print("Original Employee Details:")
employee1.print_employee_details()
employee2.print_employee_details()
employee3.print_employee_details()
employee4.print_employee_details()

# Change the departments of employee1 and employee4
employee1.assign_department("OPERATIONS")
employee4.assign_department("SALES")

# Now calculate the overtime of the employees who are eligible:
employee2.calculate_salary(45000, 52)
employee4.calculate_salary(45000, 60)

print("Updated Employee Details:")
employee1.print_employee_details()
employee2.print_employee_details()
employee3.print_employee_details()
employee4.print_employee_details()

Sample Output:
