Closed Require pubs and restaurants to close on Christmas Day so staff can celebrate

Closed on

The Government should require all hospitality venues to close on Christmas Day so staff can spend it with their families.

Christmas is a family day and should be spent with families. There’s more important things to life than working and money. I believe many staff of pubs and restaurants would much prefer to be at home Christmas Day. Some staff work every single day throughout the Christmas period without a day off.
