On May 22, 2024, the Kyushu Transport Bureau's Marine Operations Labor Supervisor conducted an audit of Kanmon Kisen Kabushiki Kaisha under the Maritime Transportation Act. It was confirmed that between March and April 2024, the company operated 14 voyages without crew members such as captains, chief mates, and chief engineers who meet the crew standards under the Small Vessel Crew Act. On August 9, 2024, the bureau issued a transportation safety order to the company, including the instruction that the vessel operator must consider safety aspects such as ensuring proper staffing of statutory personnel, preventing crew overwork, and having experienced maritime staff onboard when creating or revising crew deployment plans, in accordance with Article 22 of the Safety Management Regulations.
