It is intended to investigate their primary reaction toward Sunday employment and to relate this decision to significant characteristics about the clerks; the end result is a classified breakdown for compilation and analysis of the respondents' attitudes. The scope of this report entails a sample survey of retail clerks working full-time for Omaha retail organizations during June, 1968, when the survey was conducted. Respondents Included both those working and not working on Sunday. Retail organizations were categorized into five classifications: department, discount, apparel, drug, and grocery stores; included were both stores now opening on Sunday and stores not opening on Sunday. Prior to proceeding with the survey, an extensive investigation was undertaken on the Sunday opening issue in Omaha. This issue is not relatively new to the city and the state of Nebraska but has risen to paramount importance recently when the Nebraska Supreme Court in 1967 held that state and local Sunday closing laws are unconstitutional. The decision was based on the grounds that lavs providing that only selective businesses could remain open on Sunday are a form of discriminatory class legislation and cannot be enforced. Local proponents of Sunday closings began vociferously speaking out against Sunday openings.","abstract_html":"The purpose of this study is to determine the attitudes of full time Omaha retail clerks toward working on Sunday.
