Try

<xs:unique name="Company-Employee-Phone">
    <xs:selector xpath="Employee"/>
    <xs:field xpath="Telephone"/>
</xs:unique>

The rule is this: if you want every Y within an X to have a distinct value for Z, then define the xs:unique constraint in the definition of X, use a path that selects Y from X as the xs:selector, and a path that selects Z from Y as the xs:field.
