I suspect that some business owners will need to take a paycut in order to stay in business.

(I'm sure there are plenty of founders reading this article who sometimes pay their employees more than they pay themselves.)

This is a small business not a start up or megacorporation. Owners are usually the first person to get a paycut when times are tough.

You would be surprised. I've lost count of the number of small businesses I've seen where employees go unpaid or are underpaid to 'save the business' while the boss makes no such sacrifices.

Had to help a number of people applying to the local equivalent of a labour small claims court.
