The real answer to this problem is to recognise that different people have different chronotypes (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Chronotype https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Chronotype).
Flexible working arrangements allow workers to adjust their lives to match their circadian rhythms and other biological needs. Productivity increases due to workers shifting their workloads to the optimal times of day.
Perhaps some workers perform better over the span of a day if they take a 4 hour break in the middle for a main meal, quick sleep and some social activity? Perhaps others perform better if conducting their work in one contiguous block?
Some people like ordered, repeatable and structured schedules. Others prefer a flexible schedule where the order of their day may be completely different each day of the week depending on what commitments they have planned and what opportunities suddenly become available.
Daylight savings and fixed 9-5 working hours are deprecated concepts in a modern "high-tech" society.
