Unless the first name in the account is of the employee no issue
No problem
There is no issue if the payment is done in a joint account where the employee is the second holder. A joint account belongs to all the holders and each holder can clear cheques and receive payments in the said account. But generally this is not advisable administratively due to other practical issues like bifurcation of saving bank interest, SFT reporting of second holder transactions in the pan of first holder by banks etc.
