typedef multimap<string,Employee*> m_employees; 

Makes m_employees an alias for the specialized map type. You need to define a member. Use instead:

typedef multimap<string,Employee*> EmpMap;
EmpMap m_employees; 

---

m_employees is not a variable, it's a type name (from the typedef in the Section class header. On the same line, you are using newEmployee as if it is a pointer to Employee instance, but it is actually a copy instance.
