The employee needs to have, "His Own Idea", go buy a pistol, wait five days, pick it up and have the means to defend himself properly after hours. They are sitting ducks with anything less than that. Most of the time the bad guys will leave if they know you have the means to fight back, and you don't even need to fire your gun. If the bad guys do intend on killing you, without a gun, getting in trouble with the cops will be the least of your problems.
In the meantime you put in the employee handbook explicitly forbidding any weapons on the job. Make everyone sign a copy of this new rule acknowledging that they have read and understood it, and know it is your policy under penalty of immediate job termination for them to posses ANY type of weapon while on the clock, or on your property.
Your cleared, they can do their job with getting the crap bet out of them, and the bad guys can go hassle someone else.
I'm sorry this sounds so, "Cowboy", but each person has to decide whether they are going to be a possible victem, or are going to take responsibility for their own safety. It's as simple as that.
It works pretty good here in Texas.

As they say here if you carry and don't have your carry permit, "It's better to be tried by twelve, than carried by six".

Only if it was that easy Ty, but none of that would fly in California. Texas is a better state, and I wish it was like that here, but you can only carry your gun place to place in a locked box in your car with your ammo being in a different place in the car. The only way you could carry a side arm for a civilian is too have a special license granted by the state, showing just cause of why you need such a weapon. It's very rare and very hard to get. In Texas you can shoot and kill robbers coming out of your neighbors house and not have to answer for it. There is just too many laws in this state that just don't make any sence for the average person for personal protection.
