I feel like the more important question is not the hours worked but whether these meetings useful and constructive? If not, maybe these employees could provide more value to the company and have a better work/life balance? My understanding is that generally places (including not just companies, but countries) where the expected hours are really long, much of that time spent is not productive.

I am happy if someone attends a meeting for me. So the word still gets out to all ranks, but my information overflow is taken care of.
