Thank you. That was the answer I was expecting, but not hoping for.

Cannot Carry at workplace. Can they ban carrying at client offices?
Sorry if the title is confusing. I have my LTC (plastic came in yesterday). The employee handbook prohibits me from carrying my firearm while I am conducting business for this company. I often have to travel to clients. Assuming the client office is not posted, can my employer prohibit me from carrying at a client office?
Actual text from Employee handbook below. Is this legal?
