> While I try to keep my working hours at 40 per week (as my contract says), I have the feeling that some coworkers are using (or abusing maybe) the WFH to actually put in significantly fewer hours than the expected ones, while still getting all the salary, and has become their new norm. Why you care what other coworkers do? As per your question: I have never worked exactly 40 hours (even if my contract says so). Reason: I can't do 8h/day of productive outcome. When I was working at the office I usually did around 4h of focused work + 1h of non-focused work + 1h meetings + 2h 'wasted' (e.g., chatting with colleagues, breaks, lunch, unofficial chats about work). Since I'm WFH, I work 4h of focused work + 1h meetings (if any). That's it. The wasted time is no longer wasted. So, yeah I do work 'fewer' hours in theory. In practice, my productiviy has never been so good.
