Symfony 2.6 - Security provider

I am currently developping an application using Symfony2.6 And I have some trouble. I have two kind of users customers and employee so in my Database I have a table customer and a table employee. How can I tell symfony to go look in these two tables for the user credentials when the user try to log in?

I know that you can define a provider in the security.yml file which can be the entity but how can I declare two providers? is that possible or do I have to do this another way ?

thank all for you answers

I've got something similar with (currently) two different types of users. To handle all of the login and permissions though, I'm using FosUserBundle, and assigning them roles which I can check and then fetch user-profiles based on that.

To ensure that they get the correct ROLE_* assigned on the user creation I've followed the SO question, Adding new FOSUserBundle users to a default group on creation. They pickup a session variable with the future-role they will take, and then I have an event listener to set that role to the newly minted FosUser:

<?php
class UserCreationListener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{

// lots of constructor setup, debugging, logging and checks removed from code

public static function getSubscribedEvents()
{
    return array(
        FOSUserEvents::REGISTRATION_SUCCESS => 'onRegistrationSuccess',
    );
}

public function onRegistrationSuccess(FormEvent $event)
{
    $user = $event->getForm()->getData();
    $newRole = $this->session->get('futureRole', 'ROLE_CUSTOMER');
    $user->addRole($role);
    $this->userManager->updateUser($user);
    return $this->redirect->redirect('app_profile', 302);
}

}
