What are your thoughts on this? Does "expressly permitted" encompass chl's?
I think the question is worth asking even though some of the answers in the thread were retarded, like a customer can't carry in a bank in TX. Maybe we have smarter people on this site to give better answers.
For purposes here we'll assume said company does not have a 30.06 sign posted.

I live in [Texas] have a CCW and work for a large Bank/Financial institution (can be any company really) I will call Acme Bank, in a large office building with a few 100+ employees in a not so good neighborhood [oak cliff] the entire company policy as it relates to Weapons is at the bottom:
This part is not 100% clear to me:
“The possession or use of weapons, including but not limited to, knives and handguns, weather concealed or carried openly, is strictly prohibited on Acme Bank premises, including property owned or leased by Acme, unless otherwise expressly permitted by operative state or local law. (emphasis mine)
So would my State issued CCW licensed be considered “expressly permitted by operative state or local law.” I don't like to be unarmed I need to keep my Job and I don't feel comfortable calling HR and asking this question. Thoughts?
“Weapons
At Acme Bank, the safety of our employees, customers and visitors is of the highest priority. The possession or use of weapons, including but not limited to, knives and handguns, weather concealed or carried openly, is strictly prohibited on Acme premises, including property owned or leased by Acme, unless otherwise expressly permitted by operative state or local law. This prohibition applies to all employees, contractors, and vendors, with the exception of licensed, on-duty security personnel authorized by Acme to carry weapons on duty.
Violations of this policy are taken very seriously and may result in corrective action, up to and including immediate termination of employment.
An employee who is aware of anyone who is either in possession of a weapon on the firm's premises or is making intimidating references to a weapon must immediately inform their manager.”
