Here is one solution I had to that infamous problem for some people. The solution was (at least for me) is for you to jar your Employee class as well as other dependent classes into a jar file. Then take that jar file and place it in the /WEB-INF/lib/ directory, whether that directory be in a war file or in the webapps directory. Seems that the the Servlet Specification and Tomcat Class Loader recommends that the dependent classes be placed like that.
