With the exception of employee locations (which, by virtue of being itself an OUTER JOIN, has no relevancy at all to the query) all your tables are joined using OUTER JOINs with WHERE conditions attached. This effectively makes them INNER JOINs. Is this what you want?

Also I don't understand this line:

($date_field BETWEEN '$date_from' AND '$date_to')

Finally, well done for providing CREATE TABLE statements. However, to help with performance issues we usually need to see the EXPLAIN for the relevant query as well:

Please provide the result of EXPLAIN SELECT...
