Unit 3 IF function - Part 1
Using the IF, AND, OR functions
Scenario: An HR manager is responsible for reviewing employee performance evaluations and determining their eligibility for a promotion. The promotion criteria include meeting certain performance thresholds and having a tenure of at least three years with the company. However, there are exceptions for employees who have exceptional performance reviews, regardless of their tenure.
The criteria for determining eligibility for promotion was calculated using the following logic:
If an employee's performance score is 4 or higher AND their tenure is at least three years, they are eligible for a promotion.
If an employee's performance score is 5, they are automatically eligible for a promotion regardless of their tenure.
The HR manager has the following data:
To determine the eligibility for promotion for each employee based on the provided dataset, we can use the following formula:
=IF(OR(B2=5, AND(B2>=4, C2>=3)), "Promotion Eligible", "Not Eligible")
This simplified diagram illustrating the eligibility for promotion for each employee:
In this diagram:
John and Alice are not eligible for promotion because their performance score does not meet the criteria.
Emma and Bob are eligible for promotion. Emma's exceptional performance score (5) overrides the tenure requirement, while Bob meets both the performance score and tenure criteria.
