Honestly restricting access to those that require it and going the extra mile to make your whole building a faraday cage would still seem basically fine to me.
You'd need to have a good way for people to get emergency messages, but it's a genuine security hole that could genuinely (it's not super likely but it's also far from impossible) cost your business a boatload of money.
I've worked in "secure" environments for the US military and yeah, open access to the internet while you're on the job is absurd to expect
