Answer 1

What about sending as string and convert to enum

public ActionResult Details(int id, string type)
{ 
EmployeeType empType= (EmployeeType) Enum.Parse(
                                          typeof(EmployeeType), type, true );
}

or do write the custom model binder.

Note: Request params are string
