        Of course they won’t, but that doesn’t mean that that’s what’s being discussed in these articles.

        The suits are seeing it that way. Even if you don’t read the article, it’s in the headline my guy. They’re keeping the 32h work weeks

          It’s not in the headline that they are paying the same salary though, which was the question.

            It doesn’t say they were paid less, and it talks about the same output, so the logical inference is that the salaries stayed the same.

              I believe I read elsewhere that pay and everything else stayed the same which was the point of the trial. The businesses didn’t expect to like it but were so impressed with the results that they went ahead and kept it. It was an unqualified win for all parties.

              AFAICT it really is as good as it sounds like, no gotchas.

          The headline makes it sound like a large number of companies, but it’s actually only a handful.
