<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    <xs:element name="FirstName" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="LastName" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="Salary" type="xs:integer"/> 
    <xs:element name="Employees">
        <xs:complexType>
            <xs:sequence>
                <xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="Employee">
                    <xs:complexType>
                        <xs:sequence>

                            <xs:element name="Name">
                                <xs:complexType>
                                    <xs:sequence>

                                        <xs:element ref="FirstName"/>
                                        <xs:element ref="LastName"/>

                                    </xs:sequence>
                                </xs:complexType>
                            </xs:element>

                            <xs:choice>
                                <xs:element>

                                            <xs:minInclusive value="10000"/>
                                            <xs:maxInclusive value="90000"/>
                                        </xs:restriction>
                                    </xs:simpleType>                         
                                </xs:element>

Here are your errors that the schema throws during validation using Xerces:

src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'Salary' to a(n) 'type definition' component.
cos-applicable-facets: Facet 'maxInclusive' is not allowed by type #AnonType_EmployeeEmployees.
src-element.2.1: : One of 'ref' or 'name' must be present in a local element declaration.

You can rewrite it to this:

<xs:element name="Salary">
    <xs:simpleType>
        <xs:restriction base="xs:integer">
            <xs:minInclusive value="10000"/>
            <xs:maxInclusive value="90000"/>
        </xs:restriction>
    </xs:simpleType>
</xs:element>
