As if arguments matter.
Now if possible legal and contract things allow it get fixed and a number of employers start to offer this and pull in valuable workers... That might make the others nervous.
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
