Whitepaper: Japan's 2024 Problem and the Role of AI in Logistics Planning

Japan's logistics sector is poised for a substantial shift as the country prepares to implement a regulation restricting truck drivers' overtime to 960 hours per year, starting from April 2024. While this initiative underscores a commendable concern for the well-being of truck drivers, the consequences of this decision are anticipated to be profound, particularly against the backdrop of an existing shortage of drivers. The industry faces the daunting task of managing operational disruptions, increased cost pressures, and strained supply chains with limited workforce flexibility.
