The Background Behind the Need for Alcohol Checks in Businesses

Following the amendment of the Road Traffic Act set to take effect on December 1, 2023, businesses holding five or more vehicles with white license plates or one vehicle with a seating capacity over 11 will be required to conduct alcohol checks using detection devices.

With the diverse nature of business activities, including remote work and travel, the need for digital transformation is critical. However, many companies have faced challenges related to financial constraints and resistance to adopting new systems. This has resulted in a slow progress towards compliance. Recent incidents associated with alcohol checks highlight that even companies that have embraced digital transformation face ongoing issues, such as ineffective alcohol check systems or delays in identifying non-compliance situations.

Addressing the Challenges in Alcohol Checks

The successful implementation of digital solutions coupled with effective operational practices is vital for eradicating drunk driving. In response to these industry challenges, IT FORCE is collaborating with Genbago Co., Ltd., provider of the 'Genba e GO!' onsite management application, to host a joint webinar aimed at improving understanding and adherence to alcohol check regulations, particularly in the construction industry.
