I have a pet theory that in the old times before there was good lighting at night, people who rose early had been more productive and got richer. Their descendants remain part of the ruling class today, and that's why companies usually demand that the work day starts early. Of course nowadays there's no real need for that, they are just mad with power and want to show it off by oppressing the workers.
