In a major precedent-setting case, the National Labor Court on Wednesday that non-jews must choose a set day as their off-day from the workplace and cannot alter that day on a week-to-week basis. The court added that the 'day of rest' can be chosen from Friday, Saturday or Sunday, but remain constant. The case arose from a criminal indictment filed against the fashion company Renuar for making one of its non-Jewish workers work seven days straight. Renuar had claimed that the governing law did not define what a 'week' was and that the worker was getting to take an off-day each week, though that day could change week-to-week.
