Thank you, as there is a way to go around it, I think I shouldn't be worried of any employee having a BIOS password.

Thank for the help.
No problem
depends on the level of security required, if your finanical, Govvernment or paranoid corporate, securing the bios with third party software is the norm.

If your thinking about bios security it suggests that you have a need perhaps, have a look at this product.
