There are only two bodyguards in the store who theoretically have nothing to do with trade. And this, according to Karol Sienkiewicz, the president of the local network, “is the only legal way” to open branches on Sundays. “The act concerns the ban on Sunday trading, but still the penalties for breaking the ban are only when people are employed for this trade. There is no personal service with us” – he emphasized in an interview with the portal.
At the same time, as the president himself added, in the event of a desire to buy tobacco products, the intervention of bodyguards is necessary. “At this point, the security guard simply checks age; There is a wardrobe with a lock, which needs to be removed. Instead, there will be a machine, “he explained.
Społem in Kwidzyn is not the only one who uses the so -called Trik to the bodyguard. The protection of the facility itself is not an activity related to trading. Helping in the sale of cigarettes can already be considered it.
“We are wondering how to approach this issue. If such a bodyguard stands at the door to the store and does nothing, there is no reason for intervention” – already in 2023 to the portal Wojciech Gonciarz from the National Labor Inspectorate. He assessed that it is difficult to catch someone” in the act “.
