The handbook which Bob refers to is likely a .
The handbook which Bob refers to is likely a reference book with rules and regulations .
reference book with rules and regulations : This is the best choice here. A "handbook" is a reference guide which lists points, guidelines, rules and regulations. For example, a teacher might use a handbook while they are still new to the job to help them remember the basic principles of good teaching.
record of employee complaints and offenses: This is incorrect. A "handbook" is not a record of complaints or offenses, it simply describes the rules and regulations of an institution, or organization.
glossary of important terms and phrases: Although a handbook can be considered as a type of reference book, it is not a "glossary" ( which refers to a list of terms in a special subject).
directory of the employees of the company: A "handbook" does not list the names and numbers of a company. It is not a "directory".
small novel which fits in your hand: A "handbook" is not a "novel" (which is a fictional prose book).
