Proposed Law: letting businesses stay closed on Shabbos
MK Yigal Guetta (Shas) has proposed a law that would disallow the forcing of a business to open on Shabbos.
The current law makes it illegal to force an employee to work on Shabbos when he does not want to. It does not deal with businesses at all - i.e. there is nothing illegal about forcing a business to remain open on Shabbos, the way Sarona Market recently tried to force a vendor to stay open on Shabbos due to contractual obligations despite the vendor preferring to close.
According to Guetta's proposal, it would be illegal to do so, and even a clause on a commercial contract would not be able to force the business to stay open.

good proposal, in my opinion
