It's not about refusing to do Sunday's, it about a sudden increase in the amount of Sunday's I am forced to work. The opt out is only a serious consideration if no agreement with my employer can be reached. I have been with the company for half a decade or more and have worked in Retail 30 years or more.

I have asked directly my line manager why, the answer was no comment.

Thank you for your opinions, really I could do with contacts for advice or someone who knows the employment laws inside out.

It's hard to give clear advice. I would check your company's HR policies, for a big chain they should have an intranet and maybe even a HR department you can call.

In this case in may seem that you won't know the clear answer on how it will work until you actually put the application in.

As you've worked in retail for so long I'm sure you're aware of the dreaded 'needs of the business' in regards to your rota situation atm
