Implementing certain methods for a basic employee managing system

I am a complete beginner in the programming world. I was asked to create a basis employee managing system by creating a class called Empleado, which should include the following attributes:

• nombre (String) this means "name"

• edad (int) this means "age"

• salario (double) this means "salary"

• posicion (String) this means "position" as in Job position or Job title, NOT geographical position.

• añosExperiencia (int) this means years of experience

• estado (Boolean, active/inactive) this one means "status"

I also need to implement the following methods:

1. aumentarSalario(double porcentaje): Increase the current salary based on a provided percentaje.

2. cambiarPosicion(String nuevaPosicion): Change the job position of the employee to a new job position.

3. calcularSalarioAnual(): Return anual salary by muliplying the monthly salary by 12

4. activarEmpleado(): Change the status of an employee to active.

5. desactivarEmpleado(): Change the status of an employee to inactive.

I think I was able to implement the methods 1. and 3., but I’m having a hard time implementing the other three methods. Also, I’m not really sure if the way I implemented the method calcularSalarioAnual() is correct.

So far, this is what I have:

public class Empleado
{
    String nombre; 
    int edad;
    double salario;
    String posicion;
    int añosExperiencia;
    boolean estado;
    double salarioAnual;
    public Empleado(String name,int edad, double salario, int añosExperiencia, boolean estado)
    {
        this.nombre = nombre;
        this.edad = edad;
        this.salario = salario;
        this.añosExperiencia = añosExperiencia;
        this.estado = estado;
        this.posicion = posicion;
    }

     public void aumentarSalario(double porcentaje) {
         salario = salario + (salario*porcentaje)/100;
    }
    
    public double getSalarioMensual() {
      return salario;
    }
    
    
    public void calcularSalarioAnual(double salarioAnual) {
    salarioAnual = 12*salario;
    }
    
    public double getSalarioAnual() {
    return salarioAnual;
    }
    
    public String getPosicion() {
       return posicion; 
    }
    
}

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have attempted to search similar methods or examples which can give me an idea of how to construct the methods: cambiarPosicion(String nuevaPosicion), activarEmpleado(), and desactivarEmpleado(), however, I did not find anything useful for my case.

>Solution :

it’s pretty easy, first for the cambiarPosicion, this method will take a String input and will set the "posicion" attribute to the new one :

public void cambiarPosicion(String nuevaPosicion) {
    this.posicion = nuevaPosicion;
}

Then to activate / deactivate the employee, you can simply set its state to True or False :

public void activarEmpleado() {
    this.estado = true;
}

public void desactivarEmpleado() {
    this.estado = false;
}

On a side note,

• The calcularSalarioAnual method does not needs any parameter :

public void calcularSalarioAnual() {
    salarioAnual = 12 * salario;
}

• You forgot to add the posicion as an argument in your constructor, so it will always be an empty string !
