I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the employee handbook might be the right answer, but I could be wrong.

I feel like a policy manual is definitely a reference guide, but I might be mixing it up with the employee handbook.

I remember we discussed SOPs in class, but I don't think they fit the definition of a reference guide.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure about this one. I'll need to think it through carefully. Maybe I should review the differences between the options before deciding.
