This news discusses the "2024 logistics issue" in which stricter regulations on overtime work for truck drivers may lead to the possibility of delayed deliveries. The problem is reported from on-site situations in Fukushima and Akita prefectures.
Logistics bottlenecks often stem from vague contractual details on non-transportation duties, like delivery personnel responsibilities, inspection depth at destinations, and sorting procedures. These tasks, viewed as part of the service, lack clarity, resulting in drivers spending considerable time on these aspects, impacting overall efficiency.
