No and if they searched me and found one I'd just say nobody ever told me I couldn't. Which they haven't. I seriously doubt they will ever search though.

Re: Employer Car Searches

I too work for a big oil company in Houston and I've never even seen a weapons policy. If one exists nobody has ever shown it to me. I wouldn't be surprised it we didn't have one. We are very low policy company. Our leadership believes that those in management roles will make the right decisions and allow them to do so.

edit to add:

I just did a search of our internal site and we do in-fact have a policy but nobody has ever shown it to me. Also we have an amended policy for Oklahoma since they have parking lots carry. So I guess somebody somewhere is keeping track of the laws. It also mentions people with licenses in our regular corporate policy.

On a side note I have managed one of our facilities before and if they told me to search vehicles (they of course never have) I would probably just walk up to the vehicle look through the window and not see anything. They didn't say how hard I had to search ;-) .
