Problem Statement: Employees Database Management System
Abstract: Structured Query Language (SQL) plays a key role in managing an organization's employee
data by providing an efficient and systematic approach to storing, retrieving, and manipulating
employee information. In a corporate setting, maintaining accurate records of employee details, salary
structures, project allocations, and working hours is crucial for operational efficiency and workforce
management. SQL enables data integrity, security, and rapid access to information, which is essential for
decision-making and human resource management. It allows organizations to manage employee payroll,
evaluate project workloads, and generate reports that provide insights into employee performance,
department costs, and project progress. By leveraging SQL, companies can streamline operations,
automate workflows, and improve strategic planning.
Objective: You are tasked with designing and implementing an Employee Database Management
System using MySQL. The objective is to create a relational database that stores employee-related data
and facilitates efficient querying to generate reports and derive insights useful for organizational
decision-making and workforce management.
Project Scope:
1. Database Creation:
○ Design and create a relational database for employee management using MySQL.
○ Define appropriate tables, relationships, primary keys, and foreign keys to ensure data
integrity.
2. Data Ingestion:
○ Load data into the created tables using SQL INSERT queries or bulk import techniques.
3. Query Writing & Report Generation:
○ Write SQL queries to answer specific business questions, generate reports, and derive insights
for employee management and department performance.
Dataset & Tables: The database should include the following tables, based on the provided datasets:
● Employee: Employee details such as ID, name, job title, department, and location.
● Department: Information about each department including department ID and name.
● Project: Information on different projects.
● WorkHours: Data on hours worked by each employee on each project.
Expected Outcome: By the end of this project, participants will:
● ✅ Understand relational database design principles and how to create effective employee
management systems.
● ✅ Gain hands-on experience in writing SQL DDL (Data Definition Language), DML (Data
Manipulation Language), and DQL (Data Query Language) queries.
● ✅ Be able to query data and generate reports to analyze employee performance, project
allocations, and department financials.
● ✅ Learn how to create views and classified reports based on employee job roles, project
involvement, and department metrics.
