1926.900(b): Smoking, firearms, matches, open flame lamps, and other fires, flame or heat producing devices and sparks shall be prohibited in or near explosive magazines or while explosives are being handled, transported or used.
This is straight from OSHA's website so I think it does, his firearm is endangering other employees and management has a responsibility to address it
This reads as strictly in the context of explosive environments (i.e. atomized gas). As I understand it individual employers are allowed to set their own firearm rules, with the exception of state based laws that may supersede some of it.

Either way I don't think reporting it to OSHA will do anything at all :shrug-outta-hecks:
Also, I just came back to this and realized it is around explosive gasses. >.>
