Section 177:5 Sunday and Holiday Openings.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the commission may, in its discretion, open for business on any Sunday or legal holiday any state liquor store located on a main route where traffic is heavy; provided, however, that no state liquor store may be opened for business at any time on Easter or Thanksgiving day, whenever appointed, and Christmas day. Although full-time employees shall be given the option of working, no such employee shall be required to work on such days. The commission may employ part-time employees, subject to the rules of the director of personnel, to staff stores open on Sundays or holidays. Any full-time employee who works on such days shall be paid 1- 1/2 times the employee's regular rate of pay for the actual number of hours worked.
