    My company has the same policy (I work for a national employer with locations through the US). You cannot have weapons on you or on the property (or in your car). Luckily, with Wisconsin's new laws, you can atleast leave your carry handgun in your car. Still can't have any long guns in your car. I think you will find that most any large company will have this policy. I wonder what the policy is like at Remington or any other large gun maker.

    I guess Indiana recently joined the ranks of Kentucky and Oklahoma in forbidding employers (exception carved out for schools and universities) from taking any adverse action against an employee for having a firearm stored in their personal vehicle in the parking lot.

    This caused a problem. Employers started building into their interview processes a battery of questions about gun ownership. After all, if they weed out all of the gun owners from their workforce, they still don't have to worry about guns in employee cars. The General Assembly had to come back in the next session and pass a new law to forbid any firearm questions in the interview process. I'm a little on the talkative side, so I'll have to keep my mind on the idea of not volunteering that info in my next interview.

    This is true at IBM. Yet I can't think of any fortune 500 company that allows employees to posses a firearm at work. Some states have passed laws disallowing a company from regulating your vehicle but in the end it doesn't matter. If an issue arises most companies will find a way to fire an employee.
