Given the choice between working 20% less for the same money and earning 20% more for the same work many (most?) people will take the latter.

I hope that working more for less wouldn’t have many takers but there may be a few.

I would venture a solid guess that for 88.91% of the population - if their salary is reduced by their employer by 20% they would stay in the same place and not look for another job...
