Stricter new permit procedures

Updated: July 2024, 3


From June 27, 6, a new initiative was launched to tighten new permit procedures for truck transportation businesses.

 

As a background to this, at the "Expert Panel Meeting for the Health and Revitalization of the Truck Industry" held from March to July last year, the aim was to take measures to restore the health of the truck business and develop an appropriate market. As a result of discussions on these efforts, a new initiative, ``strengthening preliminary checks at the time of new entry,'' was considered, and related notifications were revised to include the following.

 

① Addition of conditions for permission

②Report on the compliance status of conditions attached to the permit before the start of transportation

③Strengthening special patrol guidance after transportation starts

 

The new additions and changes made in this revision are as follows.

1. Submission of Form 5 “Confirmation before commencing transportation of general (specific) motor vehicle transportation business”

Previously, after obtaining permission and making preparations for the start of the project, the submission of a "Notification of Commencement of Transportation" was required. ) Confirmation before commencing transportation of freight motor vehicle transportation business" is required.

 

This document requires the appointment of a transportation manager and a maintenance manager to ensure reliable operation and vehicle management from the start of transportation, and also mandates reporting of employee enrollment status in social insurance and employment insurance. The information to be included is as follows:

 

1. Name of operation manager/maintenance manager and whether notification of appointment has been submitted

2. Names of all drivers

3. Status of participation in social insurance, etc.

4. Registered vehicle information

 

2 Advancement of special patrol guidance period

In order to quickly optimize business operations, the timing of special patrol guidance, which was previously carried out within six months after the start of transportation, will be moved forward to within 6 to 1 months after the submission of the "Notification of Commencement of Transportation."

 

During the on-site guidance, the participation status of social insurance, etc. is strictly checked based on the content of the report, with the intention of eradicating the number of new entrants who are not enrolled.

Administrative penalty standards have been strengthened year by year, and the number of businesses not covered by social insurance has been on the decline, but with this new initiative requiring reporting at the time of new licenses, we believe this will continue to decline. You can.

 

Due to strengthened pre-checks for new entrants, those looking to start a new transportation business will need more advance preparation and planning than ever before.
