can take count of the actual query and based upon the count you can proceed like

SELECT empname INTO v_empname FROM Employee WHERE job = 'MANAGER';
Instead of this you can first check the count

SELECT COUNT(1) INTO v_cntmanager FROM Employee WHERE job = 'MANAGER';
IF v_cntmanager = 0 then
......
Else if v_cntmanager > 1 then
........
Else
SELECT empname INTO v_empname FROM Employee WHERE job = 'MANAGER';
End if;
