Her attorney states that Florida has a law that prohibits WF from denying her the right to conceal carry while working. I don't know about the validity of this, but if try, she gone get paid. I do know that Alabama recently passed a similar law. I don't know all of the minute details but I know with the exception of some employers such as schools and maybe hospitals and a few others, an employer has a really hard time stopping it's employees from carrying.

In Florida, he said, “Employers can’t discriminate against their employees nor can they discriminate against their customers if they are ... law-abiding, licensed concealed weapons permit owners.”


I interpret this and they can't fire you for having a CC or having guns in general because the article goes on to state:

“There is nothing in the state statute that says the employer has to let her bring it into the building,” Bent said.
