In your car, yes. In the office itself is up to the company, who I'm sure would say no.

Think of it this way... does a private property owner (such as a business owner) have the right to say in their employee handbook that you can not park your boats or RV on their property?

Of course they do. It's private property. They can restrict anything they want to just as you could restrict someone from parking in your driveway at home. You own that driveway.

You have the right to follow the rules or not. If they say in the employee handbook or job requirement that you must wear a yellow chicken suit everyday, then you can either wear the yellow chicken suit or work for another company. Let's not trample property rights here. If there is no zoning requirement that a private business must allow firearms, then they have the right to ban that or anything they wish. That being said, I don't agree with banning firearms in employee cars, and as a concealed handgun license holder, I wouldn't support a company that banned this right.... it's their right, but it's my right not to support them.

Now what you could do is zone business property in such a way that they must allow firearms in cars just as some cities and towns restrict signage. If the business buys land there and builds they have to follow the rules set forth by these zoning requirements.
