Hi Neha,
The nomenclature itself suggest that both are different. HR manual consists of policies, systems, practices, plans along with A-Z of HR in a particular organization where it is treated as good as a bible and accessibility to this manual is restricted.
On the other hand, employee handbook is something which every employee of the organization will be given. This consists of useful information about the organization like the contact addresses, telephone numbers along with vision, mission statements and also we can add some service rules or leave rules if we want to. This is just to give the employee an overall view of the organization so that he gets acquainted with the organization.
Hope you are clear now.

Hello Neha,
Let me explain in this way.
HR Manual: This document is intended to provide general guidelines on the policies of the company to all employees. This document is intended to outline and explain companies HR practices and policies. This document is also summarizes current Company benefits.
For example: Workplace Rules and Procedures, Grooming, Leave structure and other HR topics.
Employee Handbook: As you know that this document is give the new people joinees to know about the company. This will help the people to know the important things which they will need in their daily routine work like. For eg: Common link \ Share folder, Who is who in that company, Nearest bus stops, Tourist places near to their offices and the important extension numbers, Work culture etc. All together it is give a overall picture about the company.
