From the original "experiment" https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/24/worlds-biggest-4-day-workwee...

The experiment uses a 100-80-100 model: workers get 100% of the pay for working 80% of the time in exchange for delivering 100% of their usual output.

Would only be assuming, however, given the success it would appear that it was achieved.

fwiw I do not think that I have encountered a "knowledge worker" who couldnt do 100% of their job in 80% of the time with minimal effort. Manual jobs / service jobs obviously different of course.

So it's as simple as "We've been telling people to work 2 extra days and now we're not and everything is fine?" let's try 4 days a week. :) Then 2. Then they just pay us without doing any work.
