VPN between PC and VPN server

When an employee uses a VPN client to connect (through Internet)
their home PC back to the office, the company run a risk that someone
on the Net may be able to hack the employee's PC and then gain access
to the company's internal network.

Do you think an Internet VPN connection should always go through some
kind of access control (eg. through a firewall) ??
However, there are certain protocols which cannot proxy through
firewall.
