More Sunday Shopping and Higher Wages for Retail Workers.
The draft law changes Sunday trading rules, increasing the number of shopping Sundays to two per month. Retail employees working on Sundays will receive double pay and an additional day off, aiming to compensate for Sunday work and boost their income. The changes seek to enhance consumer choice and support the economy while protecting employee rights.
