In NSW and i'm not sure what other states employers in retail (which I work in), can make you work public holidays. The only public holiday I may get is Christmas day and I believe my employer is applying to Government for that to be a work day too.
I believe their main argument is that they are a business to serve the public, of which some do not recognise these "Holidays" therefore we should be allowed to open to support their needs on those days.
That is a fair argument, yet I believe that they do not care what-so ever about the needs of ethnic groups more-so the money they could be making.
