Part of the city of Lier is recognized as a tourist centre. This recognition has an impact on the employment of employees on Sunday.
In principle, working on Sundays is forbidden. However, under certain conditions it is allowed in tourist centres.
Since 2018, retailers and hairdressing salons located in tourist centres can employ employees every Sunday on a rotating basis. Each employee may be employed individually for a maximum of 39 Sundays per calendar year
The tourist centre must be 'officially' recognized by the FPS Employment, Labour and Social Dialogue on the basis of a file and supporting documents proving the recreational nature of the location. The recognition is granted for an indefinite period.
This is the case for the city centre of Lier, which is located within the city walls. This is an area for day tourism and the tourist attractions are concentrated there. Sunday work is therefore only allowed within this perimeter.
