I was an HR Director in a previous life and can confirm that most of the time it's in the template or drafted by the lawyers. I don't think anyone wants to be anti-gun but they really want to avoid issues and litigation in the workplace. I don't expect this to change unless we can get a law passed that prohibits employers from not allowing employees to leave their weapons in their vehicles.John wrote:I'll add too that I suspect that any template for any employee hand book will have boiler plate text banning guns in the work place. Unless the employer specifically is pro-CHL (a chl'r him self), the text probably stays just as 99.9% of whatever else legal jargon is in the hand book text. I would guess to that if an employer asked a lawyer to write an employee hand book for him, guns will be part of the boiler plate text as well.
