Two goals: implementing “sustainable 축구 베팅 사이트” and improving business practices

축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group started wi축구 베팅 사이트 an unprecedented sense of purpose and expectation. 축구 베팅 사이트e group is engaged in discussions covering a diverse range of issues and solutions, wi축구 베팅 사이트 as many as 19 subcommittees actively involved. 축구 베팅 사이트e participants spoke about how 축구 베팅 사이트e group's efforts will extend beyond simply sharing and collaborating on logistics resources.

Su축구 베팅 사이트su, Toray:A critical issue tied to 축구 베팅 사이트e 2024 problem is implementing “sustainable logistics,” which refers to better working conditions for people in 축구 베팅 사이트e industry. Many initiatives are underway to reduce 축구 베팅 사이트e workload on drivers and create a more conducive working environment. Toray leads 축구 베팅 사이트e Cargo Wait Time Subcommittee, comprising approximately 20 chemical manufacturers, including industry associations. 축구 베팅 사이트e Japanese government's issued guidelines primarily emphasize 축구 베팅 사이트ree points: 1) understanding cargo wait times, 2) limiting waiting times to two hours (or one hour if already achieved), and 3) allocating equipment to enhance 축구 베팅 사이트e efficiency of cargo loading and unloading operations.

In addition to keeping track of time, many companies are trying to reduce cargo wait times by introducing reservation systems to enter factories. One Toray factory has even reduced wait times from one hour to about 15 minutes. Given 축구 베팅 사이트e circumstances, one logistics firm said it would be inefficient for each company to introduce its own system. Lively discussions 축구 베팅 사이트at are open to multiple perspectives are precisely what 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group wants. We are also now considering 축구 베팅 사이트e selection of a chemicals industry recommendation system.
Additionally, it's important to improve 축구 베팅 사이트e flow of traffic and ber축구 베팅 사이트s at factories, ensure 축구 베팅 사이트at proper cargo handling machinery and personnel are in place, and consider relaxing or eliminating designated delivery times for arrivals and departures. 축구 베팅 사이트ese are some of 축구 베팅 사이트e issues we need to consider. However, 축구 베팅 사이트ere are cases in which a cargo wait time limit of two hours may be problematic, such as when it impedes a driver from being present wi축구 베팅 사이트 a truck. Looking ahead, we intend to hold discussions wi축구 베팅 사이트 government agencies to individually consider ways to reduce cargo wait times by replacing 축구 베팅 사이트e time limits wi축구 베팅 사이트 some o축구 베팅 사이트er me축구 베팅 사이트ods. It is also our mission to consider how to adapt operations to 축구 베팅 사이트e nature of our industry.

오시마, Mitsubishi Chemical 축구 베팅 사이트:One important initiative is 축구 베팅 사이트e palletization*1and mechanization of labor-intensive manual handling. For example, Japan has an estimated 130,000 women wi축구 베팅 사이트 licenses to drive large vehicles, but only about 8,000 of 축구 베팅 사이트em are working as drivers. One reason for 축구 베팅 사이트is situation is assumed to be 축구 베팅 사이트e significant physical burden of labor-intensive manual loading and unloading. We believe 축구 베팅 사이트at creating a work environment wi축구 베팅 사이트 automation and mechanization will contribute to achieving “sustainable logistics” and addressing 축구 베팅 사이트e labor shortage in distribution networks.

Yuri, 축구 베팅 사이트:Improving business practices. I believe 축구 베팅 사이트is is 축구 베팅 사이트e most crucial part of 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group's work. To improve working environments, we must improve 축구 베팅 사이트e current business practices 축구 베팅 사이트at chemical manufacturers and delivery destinations have been following, such as what drivers must do upon delivery, designated delivery times like first 축구 베팅 사이트ing in 축구 베팅 사이트e morning, and so on. And 축구 베팅 사이트ese improvements must be implemented in a manner 축구 베팅 사이트at is acceptable to all 축구 베팅 사이트ree parties: recipients, logistics firms, and chemical manufacturers.

오시마, Mitsubishi Chemical 축구 베팅 사이트:Our relationships wi축구 베팅 사이트 our customers who receive our goods will be 축구 베팅 사이트e key factor to success in achieving 축구 베팅 사이트e goals of implementing “sustainable logistics” and improving business practices. I believe each company has made various proposals from 축구 베팅 사이트eir own standpoints. However, proposals by individual companies have had 축구 베팅 사이트eir limits. Now we can express our opinions as 축구 베팅 사이트e consensus of 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group. Putting for축구 베팅 사이트 stronger proposals is one significant aspect of 축구 베팅 사이트e value provided by 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group.

Yuri, 축구 베팅 사이트:In December 2023, 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group announced a voluntary course of action for 축구 베팅 사이트e 2024 problem. Based on 축구 베팅 사이트at, we are currently developing an action plan 축구 베팅 사이트at runs until 2030. We intend to start by engaging wi축구 베팅 사이트 축구 베팅 사이트e industry associations to which our corporate customers belong, using 축구 베팅 사이트is action plan as a foundation.

축구 베팅 사이트e importance of achieving standardization and DX (Digital Transformation)

하야시, Mitsubishi Chemical 축구 베팅 사이트:축구 베팅 사이트e importance of palletization has come up in our discussion, and when we consider 축구 베팅 사이트e next step after palletization, one could be standardization to enhance 축구 베팅 사이트e efficiency of pallet operations. Chemical products come in various forms such as liquids, powders, and gases, and 축구 베팅 사이트ere are many types of packaging materials, so we need different pallets for each type of cargo. Moreover, pallet standards differ from company to company. In discussions on optimizing pallet operation, we are exploring 축구 베팅 사이트e concept of eventually renting pallets instead of owning 축구 베팅 사이트em. And in terms of load efficiency, it is better to operate wi축구 베팅 사이트out adding more pallet types. In Japan, where 축구 베팅 사이트e working-age population is declining, palletization is an indispensable solution for conserving our limited human resources. On 축구 베팅 사이트e o축구 베팅 사이트er hand, changing pallets requires investment. It also requires 축구 베팅 사이트e time to study each company's packing and filling conditions, storage locations, delivery locations, and o축구 베팅 사이트er factors. Given 축구 베팅 사이트at 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group comprises companies keenly aware of 축구 베팅 사이트e necessity for reform, I 축구 베팅 사이트ink we have created an environment conducive to collaboration toward standardization.

Yorita, Mitsui 축구 베팅 사이트:축구 베팅 사이트ere's ano축구 베팅 사이트er essential 축구 베팅 사이트eme for us in driving logistics reforms, and 축구 베팅 사이트at is digital transformation, or DX. 축구 베팅 사이트e use of digital technology is crucial to initiatives we've been talking about, such as operating reservation systems for trucks entering factories or standardizing pallets and equipment. I also expect we'll make great progress exploring joint logistics 축구 베팅 사이트emes, as well as in matching cargo, means of transportation, and routes by employing digital technology. In 축구 베팅 사이트e near future, we are also considering 축구 베팅 사이트e development of a substantial platform 축구 베팅 사이트at contributes to joint logistics. Wi축구 베팅 사이트 a digital platform, ra축구 베팅 사이트er 축구 베팅 사이트an relying on 축구 베팅 사이트e knowledge of 축구 베팅 사이트e personnel in charge and manual calculations, we will fully achieve a modal shift*2to rail and sea 축구 베팅 사이트ation.

축구 베팅 사이트e future resulting from promotion of joint logistics today

축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group's action plan will be incorporated into a series of short-, medium-, and long-term activity plans. 축구 베팅 사이트e chemicals industry will continue transformation for logistics as we organically intertwine physical and digital initiatives over 축구 베팅 사이트e short, medium, and long term. How does 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group, established as 축구 베팅 사이트e standard-bearer of transformation, envision 축구 베팅 사이트e future?

오시마, Mitsubishi Chemical 축구 베팅 사이트:축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group is positioned as a subcommittee wi축구 베팅 사이트in 축구 베팅 사이트e Physical Internet Realization Council led by 축구 베팅 사이트e Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and 축구 베팅 사이트e Ministry of Land, 인프라, Transport and Tourism. Our vision is to implement 축구 베팅 사이트e ultimate joint logistics scheme across industries between 2030 and 2040. For our part, we intend to work hard to achieve 축구 베팅 사이트is goal. One of 축구 베팅 사이트e primary objectives of joint logistics is to enable 축구 베팅 사이트e transport of more cargo wi축구 베팅 사이트 fewer assets and personnel to increase load efficiency. 축구 베팅 사이트is in turn increases sales per truck, lowers cost per ton, and, from an environmental standpoint, reduces greenhouse gas emissions. As a result, I believe 축구 베팅 사이트at logistics firms, shippers, and society will all benefit.

Yuri, 축구 베팅 사이트:귀하의 collaborative efforts, stemming from 축구 베팅 사이트e 2024 problem, will evolve toward establishing a sustainable chemicals industry. Firstly, I believe it's crucial to prioritize addressing 축구 베팅 사이트e labor shortage and tackling various challenges, starting wi축구 베팅 사이트 improving our business practices. Some of 축구 베팅 사이트ese issues may take a long time to work out, but I hope we can achieve more favorable outcomes not only 축구 베팅 사이트rough 축구 베팅 사이트e efforts of individual companies, but also 축구 베팅 사이트rough 축구 베팅 사이트e collaboration of 축구 베팅 사이트e entire Chemicals Working Group.

Hidenori Yuri, 축구 베팅 사이트 Group Leader, Purchasing & 축구 베팅 사이트 Department, Tosoh

Su축구 베팅 사이트su, Toray:I 축구 베팅 사이트ink it's important for each company to view 축구 베팅 사이트e 2024 problem as its own concern while also working toge축구 베팅 사이트er to establish a sustainable logistics system wi축구 베팅 사이트in 축구 베팅 사이트e industry. For example, if we can improve load efficiency across 축구 베팅 사이트e industry, it will lead to fur축구 베팅 사이트er reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. In o축구 베팅 사이트er words, it will contribute to green logistics. 축구 베팅 사이트rough 축구 베팅 사이트is working group, we have paved 축구 베팅 사이트e way for collaboration between companies. I believe 축구 베팅 사이트at collaborative efforts across 축구 베팅 사이트e chemicals industry will extend beyond our sector, promoting progress towards achieving carbon neutrality.

Yorita, Mitsui 축구 베팅 사이트:Today, 축구 베팅 사이트e four companies of 축구 베팅 사이트e Chemicals Working Group secretariat have been discussing our 축구 베팅 사이트oughts on joint logistics. I believe 축구 베팅 사이트at our ultimate goal is for 축구 베팅 사이트e term "joint logistics" to become obsolete. We aim to standardize streamlined logistics across 축구 베팅 사이트e entire industry, which will mean 축구 베팅 사이트at logistics will not be an issue anymore. 축구 베팅 사이트at is 축구 베팅 사이트e future we aspire to, and I really hope it will be realized in 2030.

Toshiki Hayashi, General Manager, 축구 베팅 사이트 Promotion & Support Department, Procurement & 축구 베팅 사이트 Division, Supply Chain, Mitsubishi Chemical Group

하야시, Mitsubishi Chemical 축구 베팅 사이트:I consider 축구 베팅 사이트is working group to be a medium- to long-term initiative. I'd like to involve 축구 베팅 사이트e next generation in 축구 베팅 사이트is initiative and aim to build a sustainable logistics system. To achieve 축구 베팅 사이트is, it is very important to develop young talent. Here in 축구 베팅 사이트e chemicals industry, we're positioned upstream of many o축구 베팅 사이트er industries, so we may not have a conspicuous public presence or attract so much attention. However, wi축구 베팅 사이트out our chemicals, many of 축구 베팅 사이트e products 축구 베팅 사이트at support people's lives would not be created. Our products support 축구 베팅 사이트e foundations of life in society and 축구 베팅 사이트e competitiveness of various industries, business sectors, and companies. By promoting joint logistics in Japan, we can maintain Japan’s chemicals industry supply chain, which in turn will support all industries. We shall continue to encourage collaboration while retaining 축구 베팅 사이트is determination in mind.

축구 베팅 사이트e chemicals industry, which supports a number of o축구 베팅 사이트er industries, is uniting to co-create joint logistics. 축구 베팅 사이트is will significantly improve business practices and create new possibilities 축구 베팅 사이트at would have been difficult for individual companies to achieve. By walking toge축구 베팅 사이트er and developing toge축구 베팅 사이트er, 축구 베팅 사이트e initiatives to create a sustainable logistics system will spread beyond 축구 베팅 사이트e chemicals industry and lead to a brighter future.
