Basically it is totally legal to protect your life and property with the gun. If some lunatic throws something at you targeting the fur coat, is it legal to shoot back.

Due to the increasingly high cost of doing business I have decided to close down. I was just wondering what exactly are the legal and ethical responsibilities that I have to my employees who have been with me for at least 5 years.

How do you prove this?
