Assume the new normal was same pay, half time. So someone making $40K per year at 40 hours per week still makes $40K per year but only works 20 hours per week. Would the economy tank? Would productivity collapse? Would businesses close? What would the fallout be on a societal level? Do we really need to work 40 hours per week to sustain the economy?
