I am not sure how long that law is going to last and I would bet it is not as broad as your quote implies.
The work I do has taken me inside oil refineries, power plants, nuclear power plants, state prisons (corrections centers), DSHS non-voluntary comitment centers (aka mental health hospitals & juvinile detention schools), and other secured facilties.
As a RTKBA supporter, I can understand doing away with a Catch-22 that doesn't allow one to go to work and park one's car and then leave a firearm securly locked up if you are not allowed (assuming you have a CPL or CWP) to bring a firearm into the place.
On the otherhand, even the most low security of these kinds of places I go to require one to surrender any weapons for locked storage with their security forces. They would never stand for a firearm brought onto the property or even locked in a care on the property where someone might break into it.
Something doesen't sound right.

I would hope that people that are trusted enough to work at these places are armed to the teeth.

That's because most of what passes as "security" at these places are just lawyers trying to cover their butts in case something does happen.
Banning the good guys from having guns isn't going to prevent anything, as 9/11 proved.
As for "no gun" policies, I find it laughable that they'll let folks drive in with a 4000 pound vehicle containing 20 gallons of a flammable material, but won't let folks in with a 9mm pistol.
"Security" needs to be focused on keeping out the people that don't belong there, not harassing employees under the guise of "making things safer".
Well now they will have no choice but to "stand for" it. At least in Oklahoma.
My employer recently quietly changed the wording on their "no guns" rule so that it no longer prohibits having firearms "on the property", but it still prohibits them on your person and in their buildings. I suspect that's the best their scumsucking lawyers could get out of the bloodsucking insurance company.
