You're right, they cannot, but they still attempt the scare tactics by having you sign a form saying that they have the right to search it and or by signing you give them consent to search it at any time and refusal can results in termination. I haven't seen it employed yet myself.eureka40 wrote:Can an employer search your car? I would think not. How else would an employer find out you had a gun locked up in your vehicle?

Re: Having gun in work parking lot?
I was in a very similar situation to the OP for years ever since the Parking Lot law was passed until someone at my company finally either wiser up or asked a different lawyer. They insisted they knew the law and could still prevent a CHL from carrying in their car because it was private property. Earlier this year, they finally changed their policy. They did it quietly, but they finally did it.
Sorry about the OPs situation.
