The ban on Sunday trading: Free days also on the internet – GazetaPrawna.pl

first announcement caused consternation among experts and entrepreneurs on the web. However, the authors of the project calm. – Its introduction will entail a revolution for offering goods online – explains Alfred Bujara, chairman of the National Secretariat of Banks, Commerce and Insurance “Solidarity”.

How note pages online outlets would operate on the same principles as before. This means that the client will not be able to enter, see the offer, choose your products, add to cart and confirm the purchase. But his order, if you will make it on Sunday, the seller will take place on Monday.

– We are aware that registration of transactions makes the system supports online store. Human labor is not needed for this. However the staff respond to customer emails, or receive calls from them with questions about the available range. The Act is intended to provide such persons free Sundays – says Alfred Bujara.

The authors of the project stipulate that the ban on e-commerce on Sundays does not apply to “platforms and web portals that provide services for the sale of goods which did not arise as a result of production activities. ” What are we talking about? It’s about enabling business portals and auction exchange. – We can not, eg. Ban the auction on that day – explains in an interview with the DGP its decision authors. The aim is primarily to block the possibility of conducting business online, among others, for large stores that could fight for a customer to move to the network and Sunday to lead in this way sale.

Experts note, however, that a large part of the stores operating on the internet right now does not support buyers in the last day of the week. Neither do they work on that day couriers, and therefore the supply of goods is not possible on Sundays. E-shops, moreover, inform the buyers at the stage of confirmation of their shopping cart, counting down the time remaining to the shipment, which is usually in the early hours of Monday. Available to customers seven days a week, they are now usually only a small e-shops run by entrepreneurs within the one-man business. Speech eg. On centers for trading through the platform Allegro, where the supply of goods is often the case on their own or is provided by the seller. These will still be able to trade at a distance on Sunday. Had in fact been included in the exceptions, which are not new to provisions.

Traders believe that the rules are not entirely clear. – None of us did not consult prepared changes – says Paul Klimiuk, a spokesman for Allegro, where the trading prowdzi more than 100,000 independent retailers, the vast majority of small and medium-sized businesses. In his opinion, it is even difficult to comment on the ideas or to analyze the impact on the business if it is not clarified what specifically will be prohibited from. – Competition especially on the Internet is huge and more importantly, truly global, from the online shop operating in China or in the United States to Poland separates us one click, and offer basically the same products. Therefore, any restriction of commercial activity on the Internet are unfavorable first customers, and secondly for small Polish entrepreneurs trading network. The shortest delivery time of goods from the moment the order is today advantage of native sellers, so you need a lot of caution in any restrictions in this respect – adds Klimiuk.

– The rules need to be clarified, what exactly will be prohibited, that law enforcement agencies had no doubts. It must be remembered that failure of the new law will be punishable by imprisonment of up to two years – says Rafal Stępniewski, CEO of RzetelnyRegulamin.pl.

Alfred Bujara believes that when the shop Internet has a warehouse, delivery of goods ordered on Sunday, not longer.

– the bill allows for work in warehouses and logistics centers. Therefore, the goods ordered on Sunday, also on Sunday, will be able to be prepared for shipping. Worker on the job, however, must agree. He must also get an increase, according to which per hour will receive double salary – explains Alfred Bujara.
