How does Mississippi law handle firearms at workplaces?

Employers can ban firearms on their property
Employees with permits can keep firearms in their vehicle
Firearms are prohibited in all workplaces
Only law enforcement can bring firearms to work

The correct answer is: Employees with permits can keep firearms in their vehicle

Mississippi law permits employees with valid concealed carry permits to keep firearms in their vehicles while at their workplace. This provision acknowledges the rights of individuals who have undergone the necessary training and background checks to carry concealed firearms legally. It reflects a balance between personal rights and workplace policies, allowing employees to secure their firearms within their vehicles even if the employer has a policy against firearms on the property. This approach underscores the distinction between an employer's ability to impose restrictions on firearms in general and the rights of employees who have complied with the state's legal requirements for firearm ownership and conceal carry. While employers do have the authority to regulate firearms on their premises, they cannot prevent permit-holders from storing their firearms in their cars.
