They are required to follow Ohio law in Ohio, regardless of their company policy.

Which pretty much means that they have to come up with a different reason to fire you when they find you have a gun in the car.

Exactly this. And while they are at it, make you disclose you are storing the gun in your car, provide a copy of your DL and CHL, fill out a form with make, model and SN of the firearm... Since the law doesn't prohibit them from doing that. Sigh.
