What kind of company? Private or corporation? IMO that would make a big difference.E10 wrote:Uh, yeah, actually, I was the one given permission to carry. But I wasn't the HR guy or a rank-and-file employee, I was a manager. But it couldn't hurt the OP to get to know some o' the bosses and carefully feel out the possibility. Might take a little time, and a tactful touch, but I think it could be done. Also, if he's a good employee, as I assume, it doesn't hurt to get noticed. A boss that has a CHL, as might be the case, will know you're more law-abiding and responsible than the general population. A plus in my book, for what it's worth.WildBill wrote:In your experience as an HR guy have you ever seen an executive or somebody in management give any employee leeway to carry at work?
I hate to be so negative, but in my experience most large corporations are have policies and rules that are extremely difficult to grant exceptions unless there is a compelling reason. And that reason is not the employee's right to self defense.
