My thought is that a lot of employment relating to this issue is atypical.

Yes, theoretically we are all free to look for work elsewhere. However, we know that reality is not that cut and dried. Jobs are not always so easy to get and not everyone has the resources to go into business for themselves.

Also, when it becomes "industry standard" for companies of any appreciable size to deny CCW to employees while knowing they are free from lawsuit success if employees are then injured by workplace violence then the "voluntary" part of employment isn't there IMO. Morally, one should not have to choose between safety and feeding your family.

So, most companies deny CCW due to venial concerns about bottomline. Most available work is with said companies in a given community. Is that fully voluntary? I think not.
