For the team I used to manage, I told them that I was not going control the hours they put in as long as the job was done, and the emergencies were handled. Turned out that I had to restrict them to work for too long and I constantly had to remind them to take breaks and to turn off slack on evenings. For myself (I used to be a manager) I concentrated on having my most strategic tasks done. Meetings were shorter, and I could skip the less interesting ones by turning on mute and doing something else instead, so all in all WFH resulted in less working hours. However the full remote set up turned out to be exhausting : due to the loss of physical interactions, I spent a lot of time solving conflicts and misunderstandings in my team that would have been easily sorted out by seing each other. My advice for you would be not to concentrate on the number of hours you put in, but rather on the fact that your job is done (in a 4-hours-workweek style). If it results in less hours worked, then enjoy it !

someone does all their work in 4 hours instead of contracted 8? shouldn't that mean their workload is wrongly managed and estimated to be too low? middle management should be on their toes!
