What the petition asks
As Christmas comes around every year our retail staff work hard they have two days off a year Easter and Christmas. Retail staff should be off Boxing Day to give them more time to enjoy family time.
I have seen lots of people asking for this. I have seen lots of new papers and other retail shops starting to do this but all retail staff want to do this
