Sunday trading
Sabbath retail hours
Sunday trading refers to the practice of retail shops opening for business on Sundays, particularly in places where laws traditionally restricted or prohibited it.
The term appears most often in British contexts, where Sunday trading laws have long limited store hours: The Sunday trading rules allow large shops to open for only six hours.
Debates about Sunday trading pit religious observance and workers' rest against consumer convenience and economic activity.
