I'm not a vCard expert, but if I'm not mistaken also the work address
is supported - see the list of supported "types":

I think this is what you should do. Unless the two sites correspond to
the same site.

One of the registers of the Publications Office of the EU is about
address types, although is not comprehensive:

Note that these "types" are defined as skos:Concept's.

Hope this helps
