On December 3, 2008, the Guardian reported that the Financial Times is ready to cut the work week for its staff: "The Financial Times is offering staff the opportunity to work a three-day week as part of cost-cutting measures designed to avoid the need for job cuts. John Ridding, the Financial Times chief executive, informed staff yesterday that the cost-cutting measures were being put in place as a result of a worsening global economic conditions in an internal email, seen by MediaGuardian.co.uk. Among the measures being introduced at the FT is an invitation to staff to make a voluntary reduction in the number of days they work, down to three or four a week if individual departments could accommodate those changes. Other cost-cutting moves at the FT include a freeze on the salaries of some employees and the opportunity to apply for voluntary redundancy. In line with guidelines from parent company Pearson, pay will be frozen to 2008 levels for employees earning more than £30,000, Ridding said."
