61 organizations participated. A year after the pilot, 54 of these organizations continue to implement the 4 day workweek. Among these, 31 organizations have decided to make the 4 day workweek a permanent arrangement. This means 89% of the participating organizations have continued with the policy in some form, and within this group, 51% have committed to the policy permanently.
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.

I would also like to see a comparison between reducing days worked and hours worked per day, which is rarely mentioned.
