I'm not sure why you can't have users use personal devices for auth - most companies I deal with do exactly that.
What if you give users the option - Use your personal device for the authenticator app (even for work email maybe?) or the company provides a phone that is ONLY for work and they'd have to have that with them. Given the option, I think most would opt for using their personal device rather then carry an additional device and the problem would be resolved.

MatthewShulman Absolutely not - I want absolutely nothing for my workplace on my personal device. I had the option to use my personal device for work, and I declined. My personal life and work are completely separate and should remain such.
