This is right on their own corporate website:
Chick-fil-A’s Corporate Purpose is “To glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us. To have a positive influence on all who come into contact with Chick-fil-A."
They've had this policy in place since 1946. They've since padded it with diplomatic context about spending time with family, DEI, and other more moderate tones, as society has shifted that way. But they pissed off conservatives along the way, especially as their former CEO Dan Cathy was a right-wing nutjob, particularly demonizing LGBTQ rights and they've since become 'woke' in their eyes.
But before that, and most of this time, it was never about labor rights. It was, and still is to some extent, about services to God, of which your Sunday is work by another means. |
I am aware but don't really care either way. If a business decides to close on a Saturday because they are a supporter of another religion I mean go ahead go nuts your loss either way. I will say I would prefer a weekend day off rather than a midweek day.
