No Canadian companies involved in a shortened workweek trial intend to revert back to a five-day week, new research from 4 Day Week Global shows.

It's not in the headline that they are paying the same salary though, which was the question.

It doesn't say they were paid less, and it talks about the same output, so the logical inference is that the salaries stayed the same.

I believe I read elsewhere that pay and everything else stayed the same which was the point of the trial. The businesses didn't expect to like it but were so impressed with the results that they went ahead and kept it. It was an unqualified win for all parties.

AFAICT it really is as good as it sounds like, no gotchas.
