Scope is important here. Are employee owned computers connecting to an
in-scope part of the network? I would strongly recommend against that.
Definitely make sure employee owned computers are out of scope. Then
none of the requirements you quoted apply. If they are on a separate
segment firewalled off and you only allow through the ports necessary
for things to work they are generally out of scope.

You don't. You ban employee owned computers from being on the in scope
network. You firewall them off and only allow through that which is
really necessary. If remote access software is involved make them VPN
into a DMZ (not in scope) and have some form of two-factor auth and let
them remote access into the in scope network from there.
