I don't know how you'd do it in DAX, but in Power Query, you could first Group By Employee Number, use a Count aggregation (let's name it "RowCount" and an All Rows aggregation (let's name it "Details", and then add an Index (beginning at 1) to each of the nested tables, and subtracting 1 from each Index value where the count of rows is 1. So after the Group By step:
Table.TransformColumns(PriorStepOrTableName, "Details", each Table.AddIndexColumn(_, "Count", 1, 1), Int64.Type)
Now you can expand the column, but your single row value will be 1 instead of zero. So now you can go
Table.AddColumn(PriorStepOrTableName, "CorrectCount", each if [RowCount] = 1 then 0 else [Count])

Good to go!
