Please be advised that Wisconsin’s Concealed Carry Law goes into effect on November 1, 2011. In just a few days, your employees and visitors, provided they receive a license, will be able to carry concealed weapons into your businesses and in your company vehicles unless you properly elect otherwise according to the new laws. As employers, you should be prepared to update your employee handbooks, enact new policies, and post the proper signs to accurately reflect your company’s policies and to properly minimize the amount of risk you, your business, and your employees are exposed to. A detailed description of the new laws and how they affect employers is available on our website at this link.
If you have any questions about Wisconsin’s new Concealed Carry Law, please contact either Joseph E. Gumina or J.B. Koenings at O’Neil Cannon at 414-276-5000. Either Attorney Gumina or Attorney Koenings can help advise you on the implications of this new law as well as assist you with the drafting of the necessary policies and procedures to best protect your business from liability.
