    Just do it like the chinese do it:

    Width of 4 time zones all on Beijing time. (most eastern)

    So companies in center/west just shift their business hours instead.

    Nobody says your company has to open at 8h, starting at 10 is perfectly legal!

            As a fellow German, could you please tell me, which limits there are to business hours that would be problematic with an hour more or less?

            Because most businesses start between 6:00 and 9:00 in the morning and afaik. there is no regulatory limit (e.g. late shift surcharges) before 22:00. Still people working in grocery stores often start at 5 to unload before opening at 6 and in cities stores run until 22:00 some until midnight.

            Most people work from 8:00-17:00. That is perfectly cover able without any legal changes.
