Change the Ctr part of the WHERE clause to a HAVING clause using the actual COUNT() statement:

SELECT Employees.ID, Employees.FirstName,
   Employees.LastName, Employees.Department,
   COUNT(ReportRequests.ID) AS Ctr
FROM Employees, ReportRequests
WHERE Employees.ID = ReportRequests.EmpID
HAVING Count(ReportRequests.ID) > 0
GROUP BY Employees.ID, Employees.FirstName,
   Employees.LastName, Employees.Department
