does the employer use the same ID as you? did they give you the ID or set it up?

If so they can specify multiple destinations for messaging.

otherwise log into your account and you can see what destinations are reachable

But when I go into Settings - Messages and I look at Send&Receive my phone number is selected. Does that change anything?

No, unless your phone number is associated with his Apple ID, he can't see your messages.

Not unless he is using your Apple ID and password on his devices. You have to be signed into an Apple ID in order to use iMessage.

My iCloud is done with my personal email, which I used to sign in to the iPhone
