Paralegal

Answer: C - No, because being an officer of Sunrise Travel does not preclude application of the handbook. The major premise is that the rules of the employee handbook apply to all at-will employees. The minor premise is that Mr. Hernandez is the President of Sunrise Travel. These premises do not permit the paralegal’s conclusion because nothing has been said about whether the handbook applies to officers. Note that the conclusion would be different if the major premise stated that the employee handbook applies only to at-will employees. Answer A is not correct because exclusion from the class of at-will employees does not mean officers are excluded entirely from those persons to whom the handbook applies. Answer B is not correct for the same reason Answer A is not correct. Answer D is not correct because approval by the Board of Directors would not affect the applicability of the handbook to officers.
