Fair Trading

• Companies must comply with the Fair Trading Act 2002*

• Companies cannot advertise products or specials on products that they do not have in stock.

• Companies must comply with the rules about pricing as set out in the Fair Trading Act.

• Retail shops must comply with the trading hours set out in the Retail Shop Leases Act. It is not permissible to compel tenants to trade on Sundays and public holidys under their retail shop leases.

• Employees are also protected from being forced to work extended hours. The Act provides that an employer must not require a current employee to work during extended hours unless the employee agrees, in writing, to work during these hours.
