But A seems to be updating the existing employee details and adding new ones, which matches the requirement.

I'm torn between A and B, but I think B might be the better choice. The USING clause seems clearer to me, and it's always good to be explicit about the join condition.

Definitely option A. The MERGE statement is the perfect way to update existing records and insert new ones in a single operation. It's efficient and straightforward.
