TheSaxon shop closing lawregulates the opening hours of sales outlets precisely. In most cases, points of sale are allowed to open from Monday to Saturday between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. Different regulations have been made for special occasions, such as Sunday shopping.
Regarding the historical development of shop opening times, it can be said that until the end of the 19th century, shops were open for 18 hours a day. With the introduction of Sunday closings in 1900, Sunday was finally declared a day of rest, but exceptions were created in the shop closing law for certain events and holidays.
Protection of workers
Another important aspect of the Shop Closing Act is the special protection of employees. Employees may only be employed on Sundays and public holidays during periods approved by the municipalities. Violations of these regulations result in fines of up to 15,000 euros.
Even though Sunday is traditionally a day of rest in Germany, other countries, such as Spain or Italy, have different regulations that sometimes offer more flexibility in opening hours. In Austria, shopping on Sundays is generally prohibited, with exceptions for gas stations and shops at train stations and airports.
