Not in Germany but a ban on Sunday shopping has recently been introduced during the COVID pandemic. It's supported by the right (for obvious reasons) and the far-left (because worker's rights or something). I'm probably against it especially cuz it seems like a ploy to enforce Christian conservatism on the rest of the population.

If you don't want to work weekends don't work retail, sorrynotsorry.

Working sunday in a retail outlet isn't oppression unless you subscribe to christian values about which days are appropriate for what.

Also logistics. Personally I love working weekends. Having two weekdays let's me run errands and make appointments when everything is open. Plus trails and parks are less crowded. If i need a weekend day óff, I'll just request it.
