What about arguing the converse, which is not at all hypothetical in my case (this is a change that happened to me): an employee commutes to work via public transport and the stop the employee uses is a straight-line path to the front door of the employee's work location through an open area owned by the employer.
The employer then constructs a parking lot on that open area and places a fence around it so that only people assigned to that parking area may use it.
Now, the employee--who does not drive and thus does not have access to the parking lot--is required (by the employer, who owns the property and assigns the employee to a building and does not permit the employee access to the parking lot) to walk an additional three minutes from the public transit stop to the front door of the employee's building. Employees who drive to work are now positioned closer to the front door.
Do the people who drive now take a pay cut because they spend less time getting from commute vehicle to the front door of the office building? Does the employee who uses public transport get a raise?
