Given that the legislature has adjourned for this session, I would like to get an idea going. it isn't perfect but it's a stepping stone; here is my idea.
The Nevada Workplace Protection Act, 2015.
1) No employer doing business in the state of Nevada shall require, as a condition of employment, that an employee forfeit their right to lawfully bear arms in any manner consistent with State Law while performing their duties under the following circumstances;
A. The employee is required to work in an area that is open to the public and that the public entering the premises are not screened for weapons and
1. The employee may participate in cash transactions of $1000 or more and/or
2. The employee may be required to work in an area where alcohol is served.
2) No employer doing business in the State of Nevada shall, as a condition of employment, shall forbid an employee who may lawfully posses firearms from storing their firearms in a vehicle on the premises of their employment.

4) Any person acting as an agent of the employer who terminates, disciplines or discriminates against any employee for the lawful possession of firearms in accordance with subsection one and two of this statute is guilty of a gross misdemeanor upon first offense. Upon the first subsequent offenses, are guilty of a category D felony and any further subsequent offenses shall be guilty of a category B felony.

A. be ordered to pay civil restitution in the amount of $25,000 to the affected employee.
