[0041] The control unit 91 of the terminal 90 includes one or more processors such as a CPU, and controls the overall operation processing of the terminal 90. The storage unit 92 of the terminal 90 is an HDD, SSD, ROM, RAM, or the like, and stores the above-mentioned web browser application as well as data and the like used when the control unit 91 executes processing based on a program.
[0042] A communication unit 93 of the terminal 90 controls communication with the network. An input unit 94 of the terminal 90 is a touch panel, a mouse, a keyboard, or the like, and inputs operation requests from a user to the control unit 91. An output unit 95 of the terminal 90 is a display, or the like, and displays the results of processing by the control unit 91, etc.
[0043] <Functional configuration> 2(a), the information processing device 10 includes, as its functional configuration, an acquisition unit 101, a specific processing unit 102, a replenishment request unit 103, an evaluation providing unit 104, a public transmission unit 105, and a confirmation processing unit 106. These are information processing performed by software (stored in the storage unit 12) that is specifically realized by hardware (the control unit 11, etc.).
[0044] The acquisition unit 101 acquires various information from the organization terminal device 2 and the evaluation agency 3. In this embodiment, the acquisition unit 101 acquires disclosure information such as press releases published by the organization. The acquisition unit 101 also acquires information about the organization (user registration information) and information about the evaluation agency 3. The acquisition unit 101 can also acquire an evaluation index table used to obtain the evaluation indexes of the organization.
[0045] The specific processing unit 102 performs a process of specifying information required to obtain the evaluation index. In this embodiment, the specific processing unit 102 performs a process of specifying supplementary items that are lacking in order to obtain the evaluation index in the disclosure information disclosed by the organization. In addition, the specific processing unit 102 can update the evaluation index table based on a change in the evaluation conditions for obtaining the evaluation index.
[0046] The supplement request unit 103 requests information required to obtain the evaluation index from the organization. The supplement request unit 103 in this embodiment requests the organization to additionally input supplementary items that are missing in the disclosure information in order to obtain the evaluation index.
[0047] The evaluation providing unit 104 provides information for determining and / or calculating the evaluation index to an evaluation source such as the evaluation agency 3. In this embodiment, the evaluation providing unit 104 provides additional disclosure information including information on supplementary items acquired by the acquisition unit 101 to the evaluation source that calculates the evaluation index. In addition, the evaluation providing unit 104 can provide the evaluation source with additional disclosure information organized to obtain the evaluation index based on an evaluation table including items related to the evaluation index.
[0048] The public transmission unit 105 transmits the disclosure information and the like to the disclosure source. The public transmission unit 105 can transmit additional disclosure information including information on supplementary items received by the acquisition unit 101 to the disclosure source to which the disclosure information is to be disclosed.
[0049] The confirmation processing unit 106 performs confirmation processing of the information of the disclosure source. In this embodiment, the confirmation processing unit 106 performs confirmation processing (audit processing) to confirm that the same content as the additional disclosure information is published on the disclosure source website after the publication date and time of the additional disclosure information has passed. For example, the confirmation processing unit 106 can check the disclosure source website multiple times, irregularly or periodically.
[0050] <Database> 1 stores user registration information related to user registration of an organization (such as a company or enterprise), evaluation agency information related to an evaluation agency that calculates the evaluation index of the organization, evaluation index table information related to the evaluation index (ESG score information in the example of FIG. 5), and other information necessary for obtaining the evaluation index, etc. Some or all of these may be stored in the storage unit 12, etc., or some of these may be stored in another database, etc.
[0051] The activity evaluation system 1 and the processing contents of each functional component will be described below with reference to FIGS.
[0052] <Outline of the activity evaluation system> The activity evaluation system 1 according to this embodiment is a system that provides advice to an organization to be evaluated for improving its evaluation index. More specifically, the activity evaluation system 1 identifies supplementary items that are lacking in order to obtain a higher evaluation index based on disclosure information such as press releases disclosed by the organization, and requests the organization to add these supplementary items. After the organization adds the supplementary items (after the additional disclosure information with the added supplementary items is made public), the system requests the evaluation source to determine (calculate) the evaluation index for the organization based on the latest information.
[0053] A schematic image diagram of an activity evaluation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in Fig. 3. As shown in the figure, an information processing device 10 receives an input of disclosure information disclosed to a publishing source such as a press release site from an organization terminal device 2 (see (1) in Fig. 3).
[0054] This disclosure information is not limited to the contents of the press release disclosed to the disclosure source, but also includes information disclosed on the company's homepage. For example, the information processing device 10 can obtain the disclosure information directly from the disclosure source. In addition, the information processing device 10 can accept input of the disclosure information before the user actually discloses the information to the disclosure source.
[0055] The information processing device 10 checks the contents described in the disclosure information and requests the user (organization terminal device 2) to correct or add missing items in order to obtain a high evaluation index ((2) in FIG. 3). The user reposts the latest disclosure information with corrections and additions (additional disclosure information) to the publisher ((3) in FIG. 3).
[0056] At the same time (or after), the information processing device 10 acquires additional disclosure information from the user and generates audit target items based on this additional disclosure information ((4) in FIG. 3). For example, the audit target items are information that is organized by picking out only the items necessary to obtain evaluation indexes from the contents described in the additional disclosure information.
[0057] The information processing device 10 transmits the items to be audited to the evaluation agency 3 ((5) in FIG. 3). The evaluation agency 3 calculates the user's evaluation index based on the items to be audited ((6) in FIG. 3). The obtained evaluation index can be confirmed (obtained) by the user via the information processing device 10, or the user can confirm (obtain) it directly from the evaluation agency 3.
[0058] In addition, after the additional disclosure information is made public, the information processing device 10 performs an audit check to see if the additional disclosure information has been made public on the press release site ((7) in FIG. 3), and transmits the result to the evaluation agency 3 ((8) in FIG. 3). By the information processing device 10 performing such a check, the evaluation agency 3 can guarantee the authenticity of the press release contents (additional disclosure information) for the user.
[0059] Furthermore, the information processing device 10 receives information on revisions to the evaluation indexes (revisions to the conditions and rules for obtaining the evaluation indexes) from the evaluation agency 3 ((9) in FIG. 3). Based on this information, the evaluation index table stored in the information processing device 10 is updated, and if necessary, the user is notified of the revision information of the evaluation indexes of the evaluation agency 3 ((10) in FIG. 3). Furthermore, when the user changes or updates the disclosure information, the information processing device 10 can receive the update information ((10) in FIG. 3) and performs a series of processes (2) to (8) based on the update information.
[0060] The activity evaluation system 1 in this embodiment performs each process in the flow roughly described above. Specific processing procedures of the activity evaluation system 1 according to this embodiment will be described in detail below.
[0061] <Registering various information> Fig. 4 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of an activity evaluation system according to an embodiment. In S201, the acquisition unit 101 of the information processing device 10 registers user registration information. Organizations such as companies and businesses that are targets of the evaluation index register users in advance. As shown in Fig. 5(a), the user registration information includes information such as the user's organization name, address, contact information, URL of the post (disclosure information), URL of the repost (additional disclosure information), and registration date, and is managed by user ID. The users in this embodiment include companies, businesses, schools, non-profit corporations such as NPOs and general incorporated associations, and various other organizations that carry out social activities.
[0062] In S202, the acquisition unit 101 of the information processing device 10 registers information on the evaluation agency 3. As shown in Fig. 5(b) , the evaluation agency information includes information such as the evaluation agency name (e.g., XXX agency or △△ agency), address, contact information, evaluation index (e.g., ESG score), and registration date, and is managed by an evaluation agency ID.
[0063] <Acquisition of disclosure information> 4, the acquisition unit 101 of the information processing device 10 acquires disclosure information such as press releases published by users. In this embodiment, the acquisition unit 101 acquires the disclosure information based on an input (such as the URL of the disclosure source) from the organization terminal device 2. The disclosure information is information including specific details of corporate activities, such as cleaning activities in a company, the number of people who participated in the cleaning activities, the location where the cleaning activities were performed, the date and time when the cleaning activities were performed, and the results of the cleaning activities.
[0064] The acquisition unit 101 can also acquire the disclosure information directly from the disclosure source without going through the user. For example, the acquisition unit 101 can acquire the disclosure information of the user by using a scraping technique or the like, or can accept input of the disclosure information from the disclosure source such as a press release site.
[0065] <Identifying missing items> In S204, the identification processing unit 102 of the information processing device 10 identifies missing items that are missing in order to obtain an evaluation index in the disclosed information of the user acquired by the acquisition unit 101. In this embodiment, the identification processing of the missing items is performed based on the evaluation index table stored in the storage unit 12. This evaluation index is, for example, an evaluation score that indicates the social effort status of the company.
[0066] As shown in Fig. 5(c), the evaluation index table when the evaluation index is an ESG score includes types such as E (environment), S (society), and G (governance), items such as industrial waste and human rights policy, and the contents of the items. The items and contents in Fig. 5(c) may be combined to form an item. Note that the identification processing unit 102 can also identify missing items without using the evaluation index table. In this case, it is also possible to identify missing items using, for example, AI technology.
[0067] For example, if the disclosure information includes an item for obtaining an evaluation index, a score (evaluation score) of the evaluation index or the like can be calculated based on this item. On the other hand, it may not be possible to obtain an accurate evaluation based on this item alone, and if other items are included, it may be possible to further improve the evaluation index.
[0068] In reality, when the evaluation agency 3 obtains evaluation indicators from the organization's disclosure information, there are often too few items to evaluate (contents of the disclosure information), resulting in a low evaluation. The activity evaluation system 1 can easily and quickly deal with such situations.
[0069] In S205, the replenishment request unit 103 of the information processing device 10 requests the user to additionally input the replenishment item identified by the identification processing unit 102. For example, the identification processing unit 102 can transmit the contents of the replenishment item and the contents (and keywords, etc.) that should be added to the organization terminal device 2.
[0070] The user checks the contents of the supplementary items via the organization terminal device 2, and adds or modifies the disclosure information according to the supplementary items. The additional disclosure information to which the user has added the supplementary items is posted to the disclosure source from the organization terminal device 2. The acquisition unit 101 acquires the additional disclosure information from the organization terminal device 2.
[0071] 2, the information processing device 10 may be provided with a public transmission unit 105, which may transmit additional disclosure information including information related to supplementary items received by the acquisition unit 101 to a source (such as a press release site) where the disclosure information is to be made public. Also, the additional disclosure information may be posted from the organization terminal device 2 without providing the public transmission unit 106.
[0072] For example, if a supplementary item is not found by the identification process of the identification processing unit 102, a message to that effect can be transmitted to the organization terminal device 2. By informing the user that a supplementary item was not found by the identification processing unit 102 in this manner, the user can confidently continue disclosing the disclosure information as is.
[0073] <Providing information to evaluation organizations> In S206, the evaluation providing unit 104 of the information processing device 10 provides the additional disclosure information to the evaluation agency 3. The evaluation agency 3 determines the evaluation index of the organization based on this additional disclosure information. For example, the evaluation providing unit 104 can provide the additional disclosure information to the evaluation agency 3(a) and the evaluation agency 3(b) in FIG. 1. That is, the evaluation providing unit 104 can provide the same additional disclosure information to multiple evaluation agencies. In this case, the user can easily and quickly obtain two types of evaluation indexes from the same information (additional disclosure information).
[0074] The evaluation information providing unit 104 can directly provide the additional disclosure information to the evaluation institution 3, or can generate additional disclosure information organized to obtain evaluation indicators, that is, generate audit target items as shown in FIG. 3, and can also provide the audit target items to the evaluation institution 3. By providing the audit target items with pre-organized items to the evaluation institution 3, evaluation indicators can be obtained quickly and accurately. In addition, different information based on the additional disclosure information can also be provided to multiple evaluation institutions. Information can be appropriately organized and provided according to the evaluation institution 3.
[0075] <Check of public content> And in S207, the confirmation processing unit 106 of the information processing device 10 performs an audit check on the additional disclosure information. After the publication date and time of the additional disclosure information (such as a press release with supplementary items added) have passed, the confirmation processing unit 106 confirms that the same content as the additional disclosure information is published on the original website. The confirmation processing unit 106 confirms that the same content as the additional disclosure information is published on a press release site, the organization's homepage, etc.
[0076] The confirmation processing unit 106 can also perform this audit check multiple times. In addition, the audit check can be performed multiple times irregularly. For example, it can be checked regularly, such as once (or multiple times) on a certain day of the week every week. In this embodiment, by the confirmation processing unit 106 performing the audit check, the reliability of the disclosure information (and additional disclosure information) can be ensured.
[0077] In this way, in this embodiment, the specific processing unit 102 identifies the missing items, the supplement request unit 103 requests the user to add or correct the description of the missing supplementary items, and the evaluation information providing unit 104 provides the additional disclosure information to the evaluation institution 3, so that the evaluation indicators of the target organization can be improved simply and accurately.
[0078] <Calculation of ESG score> Next, a description will be given of a case where an ESG score is calculated as an evaluation index in the activity evaluation system 1. Fig. 6 shows a flowchart of a processing procedure for improving an ESG score in the activity evaluation system according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0079] In this specification, ESG score refers to an index evaluated by a third-party organization (rating agency) on the social and environmentally conscious efforts of a company or other organization, or an equivalent index. For example, it is an index that evaluates and scores companies or businesses based on specified criteria such as E (environment), S (society), and G (governance).
[0080] 6 illustrates the flow of each process of a publisher such as a press release site, the organization terminal device 2, the information processing device 10, and the evaluation agency 3. Note that while FIG. 6 mainly illustrates the calculation of an ESG score, it goes without saying that each process described in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 is also performed.
[0081] In S301, the organization terminal device 2 posts the contents of the press release (announcement) to the disclosure source. In S302, the contents of the press release (disclosure information) in the organization are disclosed to the disclosure source by this posting (the press release becomes accessible from an unspecified number of terminals, etc.).
[0082] Then, in S303, the user inputs the contents of the press release (disclosed information and the URL of the disclosure source) into the organization terminal device 2, and the acquisition unit 101 of the information processing device 10 acquires the disclosed information based on this input. The identification processing unit 102 of the information processing device 10 reads the text of the disclosed information (S304) and identifies which ESG category it belongs to (S305). For example, the ESG category can be identified based on whether or not the read text contains a word for identifying one of the ESG categories.
[0083] The identification of the ESG category is a process in which the identification processing unit 102 identifies (or determines) whether the content described in the disclosure information relates to E (environment), S (society), or G (governance).
[0084] Details will be provided later, but at this stage, it does not matter whether the information includes content that allows for the calculation of an ESG score, but rather classifies the information by determining whether it contains content related to E (environment), S (society), or G (governance). For example, this can be done using the evaluation index table in Figure 5(c), or AI technology can also be used.
[0085] 6, the identification processing unit 102 identifies (determines) that the ESG category is S (society) (S306). After that, the identification processing unit 102 determines whether the content (text, character information) included in the disclosure information corresponds to an item required for calculating the ESG score (S307).
[0086] For example, if the disclosed information includes "a survey to measure employee satisfaction related to job duties, work environment, and quality of management," the specific processing unit 102 can determine that this corresponds to an item necessary for calculating an ESG score based on the evaluation index table stored in the memory unit 12 or the esgBook at the evaluation agency 3, but if the disclosed information includes "the number of weeks provided by the employer for paid parental leave," it can determine that this does not correspond to an item necessary for calculating an ESG score.
[0087] In addition to the examples in Figure 5 (C), the specific processing unit 102 can determine that the disclosed information meets the items necessary for calculating the ESG score when it includes information such as "Does the company have a work-life balance policy (work-life balance policy)," "Does the company disclose quantitative labor rights data (disclosure of labor rights data)," or "Does the company provide flexible work arrangements to employees (flexible work arrangements)," or when similar disclosure is made.
[0088] If the items correspond to those required for calculating the ESG score, it is determined whether there are any missing items (S308). If there are any missing items, the identification processing unit 102 identifies and processes the supplementary items (S309), and the supplement request unit 103 of the information processing device 10 requests the organization terminal device 2 to additionally input the identified supplementary items (S310).
[0089] For example, if the disclosure information contains "contents related to a survey to measure employee satisfaction related to job duties, work environment, and quality of management," the specific processing unit 102 can request additional input from the organizational terminal device 2 as a supplementary item (and specific request for addition) such as "add a notation of the total number of employees who responded to the survey divided by the total number of employees surveyed" (in this case, requesting that the total number of entities surveyed be indicated).
[0090] If the content included in the disclosure information in S307 does not correspond to the items required for calculating the ESG score (if the items for calculating the ESG score are not included), the specification processing unit 102 executes the process of S309. If there are no items missing for calculating the ESG score in S308, the supplement request unit 103 executes the process of S313 described later.
[0091] The organization terminal device 2(a) adds information corresponding to the supplementary items to the press release (disclosure information) (S311). The organization terminal device 2 posts the additional disclosure information to which the supplementary items have been added to the disclosure source, and transmits it to the acquisition unit 101 of the information processing device 10 (the acquisition unit 101 acquires the additional disclosure information).
[0092] In S312, the disclosure source discloses the changes to the press release (additional disclosure information). The evaluation providing unit 104 of the information processing device 10 generates audit target items (S313), and the evaluation agency 3 calculates the ESG score of the user based on the conditions for calculating the ESG score, such as esgBook (S314).
[0093] Thereafter, the confirmation processing unit 106 of the information processing device 10 confirms (audit check) that there are no changes to the content of the additional disclosure information (S315), and reports the results of the audit check (pass / fail result, such as whether there are any changes) to the evaluation organization 3 (S316).
[0094] In this way, by executing the predetermined processes from S301 to S316 in the activity evaluation system 1, it is possible to easily and accurately improve the ESG score of a company.
[0095] In this embodiment, the ESG score has been mainly described, but it goes without saying that the same effects as the present invention can be obtained when the activity evaluation system 1 is used for scores other than the ESG score or evaluation indices that do not calculate a score.
