Handle? With SQL?

SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM HIRE_DATE)  FROM EMPLOYEE

From the Online help:

Local SQL supports the EXTRACT() function for isolating a single numeric 
field from a date/time field on retrieval using the following syntax:

EXTRACT (<extract field> FROM <field name>)

where <extract_field> can be one of: YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, and 
SECOND.
In local SQL, EXTRACT() does not support the TIMEZONE_HOUR or 
TIMEZONE_MINUTE clauses.
