For the employer thinking about keeping the miles, I think its all a matter of accounting. I assume that your employees either charge the tickets and submit expense accounts or the travel department or secretaries make the reservation and give their boss's FF number. Consider changing your travel requirements so that the tickets are purchased by the XYZ corporation that has a FF number & that corp gets the miles. For the kind of business I assume your'e doing, I'm sure every one of those airlines would kill to set it up for you.
Not that I advocate for that policy. 
If it were as easy as that, I should have received FF miles for my teenage children's flights that I paid for, at adult fares (and I did ask). Unfortunately for me, FF miles were credited only to the actual traveler.
In my company, tickets are paid directly by the company, but I travel and get the miles. Our travel policy specifically allows employees to keep the miles.
