“God ordained the Sabbath as a day of rest, and until very recently the Judeo-Christian tradition sought to honor that mandate by moral and legal regulation of work on that day.” (General Welfare, Dept. of Labor, Page 589)

Implementing work-rest regulations based on Judeo-Christian Sabbath observance could unfairly favor one religious tradition over others, affecting workers who observe different days of rest. This approach might lead to scheduling conflicts and economic disadvantages for those who need to work on Sundays due to personal or financial reasons. Furthermore, it could increase operational costs for businesses, potentially leading to reduced staffing hours. Overall, these regulations could infringe upon personal freedom, create feelings of exclusion among non-Judeo-Christian adherents, and exacerbate economic inequality and religious discrimination against minorities and affected workers.
