Introduction - Java Subclasses for Staff Management
This assignment is focused on creating a class to represent a StaffHire and two subclasses to represent a Full-time Staff and a Part-time Staff respectively. The goal of this assignment is to provide a comprehensive class programming that can be used to manage staff hiring in various businesses. The StaffHire class will provide the basic attributes and methods for managing the hiring of staff, while the two subclasses provide additional details and functionality specific to each type of staff. The report will provide an overview of the class hierarchy created the methods and attributes used, and the test cases used to validate the functionality.
Aims and objectives
Aim
The aim of this assignment is to create a class to represent a StaffHire, along with two subclasses as Full-time Staff and Part-time Staff respectively and the program will provide the ability to store, retrieve information about each staff member, and evaluate how the program meets the requirements.
Objectives
The main objectives of this research can be evaluated as follows:
- To execute the classes represented as StaffHire and to make a program about staff
- To develop sub-classes related to the staff as Full-time staff and Part-time staff tentatively
- To implement a program that can store and show the records or staff details
- To execute a class diagram according to the classes, strings and types, and names of the required fields
- To evaluate some errors while developing the classes of staff details storing method for this research
Background
Staff hiring is an important part of any business, as it is essential to have the right people in place to ensure that the business runs smoothly. Staff hiring involves identifying and recruiting suitable candidates for various roles, as well as managing and developing existing staff to ensure that they are fit for the job (BUZIKOV et al. 2022). There are two main types of employment, which are full-time and part-time. Full-time staff is employees who work an agreed number of hours each week and are typically entitled to a range of employee benefits such as paid holidays, sick pay, and pension contributions. Part-time staff is those who work fewer hours and are often employed on a more flexible basis. This assignment is to create a class to represent a StaffHire, together with two subclasses to represent Full-time Staff and Part-time Staff respectively. This class will contain the necessary attributes and methods to effectively manage staff hiring. The class should include attributes such as name, job title, salary, hours worked, and benefits, as well as methods for hiring and terminating staff. Additionally, the two subclasses of Full-time and Part-time Staff should contain attributes and methods specific to their respective employment types.
Error detection
Some different types of errors can be executed while developing this class about StaffHire. The main five different error directions can be executed and have been mentioned below as follows:
- The class should ensure that the information provided by the user is valid and that no invalid input is accepted.
- The class should also check that the staff member is either full-time or part-time and reject any information that does not fit these criteria.
- The class should also check that the salary provided for the staff member is valid and reject any information that does not fit this criterion.
- The class should also check that the hours of work provided for the staff member are valid and reject any information that does not fit this criterion.
- The class should also check that the type of contract provided for the staff member is valid and reject any information that does not fit these criteria.
However, some different types of errors and problems have been faced while executing the main output of the program (LORIS et al. 2022). There were several issues and errors executed while executing the software part. Actual classes and strings with main classes have been defined perfectly after executing the problems in Netbeans and in the end; the results can be evaluated properly.
Implementation
First, it has been created a class named StaffHire represents staff hiring. This class will contain the basic information about the staff hire, such as name, position, salary, and other details. It will also contain methods for setting and getting the staff hires information.

Next, the implementation has been processed by creating two subclasses of StaffHire, namely Full-time Staff and Part-time Staff (LUCACI et al. 2022).
Figure 3: The class commands for the StaffHire
These classes will contain additional information specific to the type of staff hires, such as working hours and benefits. It will also contain methods for setting and getting the staff hires information.

Finally, it can be executed with the write a report about our program. This report will include an overview of the program, a description of the classes and methods, and an analysis of the program's performance. It will also include any suggestions for improvement.
Results
The result can be executed as the following structure with appropriate figures. The StaffHire class also has several methods, such as getName (), getAge(), getRole(), getSalary(), and getHoursPerWeek(), which are used to access the attributes of a staff member (SCHAUB et al. 2022).

The Full-time Staff class and the Part-time Staff class also have their own methods, such as getHoursWorkedPerWeek () and getHourlyRate(), which are used to access the attributes specific to their respective categories
Figure 6: The Full-time staff details
The StaffHire class also has two constructors, one for the full-time staff and one for the part-time staff. The constructors are used to create new instances of staff members, and they take in the required attributes to properly create a staff member.

The StaffHire class has several attributes, such as name, age, role, salary, and hours per week, that are used to represent a staff member.

Class diagram
The class diagram for this assignment is for a StaffHire class, which is meant to represent a staff hire in a company. The StaffHire class has two subclasses, a Full-time Staff class, and a Part-time Staff class, which are intended to represent either full-time or part-time staff members. Th following class diagram has been developed using Draw.io and it has been shown in the figure below:
Figure 8: The Class diagram
The class diagram is designed based on the classes that are present in the system. The attributes present in the classes can be observed from the following figure.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the creation of a StaffHire class, along with two subclasses to represent Full-time Staff and Part-time Staff, is an effective way to manage staff in an organization. By utilizing the constructors and methods, it is possible to store and retrieve information about staff, including name, salary, and job title. Additionally, the program can be easily adapted to accommodate any changes in the organization's staff structure. A complete class diagram also has been evaluated as per the requirements of this research. This report can help to execute a proper specification and use of classes in JAVA codes.
