On completion of Exercise 14.16 examine the 3NF relations created to represent the attributes shown in the relation displaying employee contract data for an agency called Instant Cover in Figure 14.20. Determine whether these relations are also in BCNF. If not, transform the relations that do not conform into BCNF.
