It's already happening, at least in my social circle. People changing to four day weeks or even changing jobs when their employer doesn't offer reduced work weeks.

It's a slow trickle but it's there.

Indeed, this is how the change will be made.

Dumb question: how does this work? Is a person paid the same for less hours? What if they are hourly?

If they're hourly it usually goes to a 4x10 instead of 5x8 so that the hours are kept the same
