I think one important question is: Do you have to relate your planet to earth?

Is there anyone in the story, who knows earth and can relate any aspect of it to the planet they are on?

If the characters in the story are native to the planet they will probably be adapted to it. IMHO they will have to handle days differently only if the length of the day get into real extremes - lets say less than 52 days per year.
