Question 16

Which of the following statements about policy is FALSE?

    Correct Answer: B

    A well-written policy focuses on defining what must be done and outlines the guidelines and principles for action. It does not state the specifics of how to do something; that level of detail is handled by procedures. Procedures are detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to implement the policy. Therefore, the statement that a policy states the specifics of 'how' to do something is false.
