places of business

Where work happens

Places of business are locations where commercial or professional activity occurs—stores, offices, restaurants, factories, and the like.

The phrase appears most often in legal, regulatory, or formal contexts: The ordinance applies to all places of business within city limits.

It encompasses anywhere people work to provide goods or services.
