From April 1st, overtime work caps will begin to be regulated in three industries: transportation, construction, and doctors. The application has been suspended for five years until April 1, 2024 as a preparation period.
It remains to be seen how society will respond to the so-called "2024 problem," in which it has been pointed out that a reduction in working hours will hinder logistics, local medical care, etc. Upper limits on overtime work have been introduced in large companies for the past five years.
