The classification identifier is information that identifies the classification of the item (which may also be called a group, class, etc.). The classification identifier is, for example, an ID or classification name indicating the classification. A classification may also be called an area. For example, for each of two or more items in the questionnaire, a question may be "whether or not you feel that the human rights risk is high" or "the degree to which you feel that the human rights risk is high." A question regarding the level of human rights risk for each item is called a risk question. Also, for example, for each of two or more items in the questionnaire, a question may be "whether or not you have seen, heard, or experienced it in the organization in the past" or "the number of times, frequency, or degree to which you have seen, heard, or experienced it in the organization in the past." A question regarding the occurrence of human rights violations for each item is called an occurrence question. Note that the past in the occurrence question may be a limited period (for example, the past two years).

[0052] It is preferable that, for each of two or more items, comprehension source information corresponding to each of two or more risk answers is managed. The risk answer is an answer to a risk question. It is preferable that, for each of two or more items, occurrence source information corresponding to each of two or more occurrence answers is managed. The occurrence answer is an answer to an occurrence question. It is preferable that, for each of two or more items, two or more risk answers and two or more occurrence answers are, for example, "YES" and "NO". The two or more risk answers are, for example, information specifying three or more degrees (levels), such as "1" to "5", "A", "B", "C", etc. The comprehension source information is, for example, a numerical value corresponding to each of two or more risk answers, and an arithmetic formula using the risk answer as a parameter.

[0198] The occurrence degree acquisition unit 132 acquires, for example, a representative value (for example, an average value, a weighted average value, or a median value) of the occurrence degree of each of two or more members. It then returns to the upper level process. The representative value is the occurrence degree of the organization. The organization here may be a virtual organization. If the representative value is a weighted average value, the occurrence degree acquisition unit 132 acquires the occurrence degree of the organization by, for example, decreasing the weight for the occurrence degree corresponding to the member attribute value of a higher position, or by decreasing the weight for the occurrence degree corresponding to the member attribute value of a higher age.

[0211] (Step S904) The access risk score obtaining unit 135 assigns 1 to a counter j.

[0212] (Step S905) The access risk score acquisition unit 135 judges whether or not a score condition that is the jth condition of the access risk score exists in the storage unit 11. If the jth score condition exists, the process proceeds to step S906, and if not, the process proceeds to step S910.

[0213] (Step S906) The access risk score acquisition unit 135 judges whether or not the one or more human rights due diligence answers acquired in step S903 satisfy the j-th score condition. If the j-th score condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S907. If not, the process proceeds to step S909.

[0214] (Step S907) The access risk score acquisition unit 135 acquires an access risk score paired with the j-th score condition from the storage unit 11, and temporarily stores the access risk score in association with the i-th member identifier.

[0215] (Step S908) The access risk score acquiring unit 135 increments the counter i by 1. The process returns to step S902.

[0216] (Step S909) The access risk score acquiring unit 135 increments the counter j by 1. The process returns to step S905.

[0217] (Step S910) The access risk score acquisition unit 135 acquires a default access risk score from the storage unit 11, and temporarily stores the access risk score in association with the i-th member identifier.

[0218] (Step S911) The access risk score acquisition unit 135 acquires the access risk score of the organization using the access risk scores paired with each of the two or more member identifiers. Return to the upper process. Note that the access risk score acquisition unit 135 acquires the access risk score of the organization, which is, for example, a representative value (for example, an average value, a weighted average value, a median value) of the access risk scores paired with each of the two or more member identifiers.

[0219] Next, an example of the psychological safety score acquisition process in step S511 will be described with reference to the flowchart in FIG.

[0220] (Step S1001) The psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 assigns 1 to a counter i.

[0221] (Step S1002) The psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 determines whether or not the i-th member identifier exists. If the i-th member identifier exists, the process proceeds to step S1003, and if not, the process proceeds to step S1006.

[0222] (Step S1003) The psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 acquires one or more psychological safety answers paired with the i-th member identifier.

[0223] (Step S1004) The psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 acquires the psychological safety score of the i-th member by using the one or more psychological safety answers acquired in step S1003.

[0232] (Step S1106) The unconscious bias score acquisition unit 137 acquires an unconscious bias score of the organization using the unconscious bias score of 2 or more acquired in step S1104. The process returns to the upper level process. Note that the unconscious bias score acquisition unit 137 acquires an unconscious bias score of the organization that is, for example, a representative value (for example, an average value, a weighted average value, or a median value) of the unconscious bias scores of 2 or more.

[0233] Next, an example of the total score acquisition process in step S513 will be described with reference to the flowchart in FIG.

[0234] (Step S1201) The overall score acquisition unit 134 acquires two or more statistical processing results used to acquire the overall score. Such statistical processing results are overall score source information. The two or more pieces of overall score source information are predetermined. The overall score source information is, for example, one or more types of information among the level of understanding of one or more categories, the occurrence rate of one or more categories, an access risk score, a psychological safety score, and an unconscious bias score.

[0235] (Step S1202) The total score acquisition unit 134 acquires a total score using two or more pieces of total score source information acquired in step S1201. Then, the process returns to the upper level process.

[0236] The total score acquisition unit 134, for example, substitutes each of two or more pieces of total score original information into an arithmetic expression, executes the arithmetic expression, and acquires a total score. The total score acquisition unit 134, for example, constructs a vector having two or more pieces of total score original information as elements, and acquires a total score paired with a vector most similar to the vector from a correspondence table. Such a correspondence table has two or more pieces of correspondence information having a vector having two or more pieces of total score original information as elements, and a total score.

[0248] (Step S1311) The comment acquiring unit 138 acquires one or more pieces of comment information corresponding to the unconscious bias score acquired in step S1310 from the comment managing unit 112, and temporarily stores the pieces of comment information.

[0249] The specific operation of the questionnaire system A in this embodiment will be described below. A conceptual diagram of the questionnaire system A is shown in FIG.

[0250] The questionnaire storage unit 111 of the human rights questionnaire processing device 1 stores the first questionnaire shown in FIG. 14. The first questionnaire has two or more items related to human rights. Each of the two or more items corresponds to a category. The first questionnaire has a "risk question" and an "occurrence question" corresponding to each of the two or more items. The "risk question" is a question that asks whether or not you feel that there is a high human rights risk for each item, and asks "yes" or "no." The "occurrence question" is a question that asks whether or not you have seen, heard, or experienced something in the company in the past, and asks "yes" or "no." The first questionnaire (FIG. 14) has a "categorization identifier," "category," "item ID," and "item." Here, two or more items correspond to each of the two or more categories.

[0251] In FIG. 14, score information is managed in association with the first questionnaire. Score information 1401 (for example, P111, P112) is information that is the basis for acquiring the degree of understanding. The column of "P111" is score information that is selected when the answer to the "risk question" is "yes (for example, "1")", and the column of "P112" is score information that is selected when the answer to the "risk question" is "no (for example, "0")". Score information 1402 is information that is the basis for acquiring the degree of occurrence. The column of "Q111" is score information that is selected when the answer to the "occurrence question" is "yes (for example, "1")", and the column of "Q112" is score information that is selected when the answer to the "occurrence question" is "no (for example, "0")". P111, P112, Q111, etc. are usually numerical values.

[0252] The questionnaire storage unit 111 stores the second questionnaire shown in FIG. 15. The second questionnaire is based on the question, "If you are treated unfairly in your current work environment (particularly in your department), what action do you think you can take (multiple answers allowed)?" and has a human rights due diligence question 1501, a psychological safety question 1502, and an unconscious bias question 1503. Each of the human rights due diligence question 1501, the psychological safety question 1502, and the unconscious bias question 1503 has multiple questions, and the members decide to answer either "YES (select)" or "NO (do not select)" for each question. Here, the human rights due diligence question 1501 is classified as category 1, the psychological safety question 1502 is classified as category 2, and the unconscious bias question 1503 is classified as category 3.

[0253] The storage unit 11 stores an access risk score management table shown in FIG. 16. The access risk score management table is a table for determining an access risk score corresponding to an answer to the human rights due diligence question 1501. The access risk score management table has two or more records having an "ID", an "answer pattern", and an "access risk score". The "answer pattern" is information for specifying the answer pattern of each question in the human rights due diligence question 1501. "1" in the "answer pattern" vector indicates that the question of the element number has been selected, "0" indicates that the question of the element number has not been selected, and "?" indicates that the question of the element number matches whether it has been selected or not. The answer pattern (1,?,?,?,?,?,0,...) of "ID=1" matches the case where the first question from the top is selected and the sixth question is not selected among the questions in the human rights due diligence question 1501 in FIG. 15. Also, in the access risk score management table, it is assumed that the answers are checked in order starting from "ID=1" to see if they match the answer pattern, and the access risk scores of the members are determined.

[0254] The comment management unit 112 stores a first comment management table shown in FIG. 17. The first comment management table is a table that manages comment information according to the level of understanding and the level of occurrence. The first comment management table has two or more records having an "ID", "human rights risk type", "comment information (recommendation)", and "condition". The "human rights risk type" is determined using the level of understanding and the level of occurrence. In other words, the "condition" is a condition that uses the level of understanding and the level of occurrence. The x in the "condition" is the level of occurrence, and the y is the level of understanding.

[0255] The comment management unit 112 stores a second comment management table shown in FIG. 18, a third comment management table shown in FIG. 19, and a fourth comment management table shown in FIG.

[0256] The second comment management table is a table that manages comment information according to the access risk score. The second comment management table has two or more records that have "5-point rating," "Access risk score," "Comment (overall rating)," and "Comment (Risk of further reducing / ignoring risk)." "Access risk score" is information that specifies the range of the access risk score. For example, the access risk score "Range 11" is an organization's access risk score that is equal to or greater than the first threshold. Note that ranges 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 do not have overlapping ranges.

[0257] The third comment management table is a table that manages comment information according to psychological safety scores. The third comment management table has two or more records that have "5-point rating," "psychological safety score," "comment (overall assessment)," and "comment (risk of further reducing / ignoring risk)." "Psychological safety score" is information that specifies the range of the psychological safety score. Psychological safety score "range 21," for example, is when the organization's psychological safety score is equal to or greater than the second threshold. Note that ranges 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25 do not have overlapping ranges.

[0258] The fourth comment management table is a table that manages comment information according to the unconscious bias score. The fourth comment management table has two or more records that have "5-point rating," "Unconscious bias score," "Comment (overall assessment)," and "Comment (risk of further reducing / ignoring risk)." The "Unconscious bias score" is information that specifies the range of the unconscious bias score. For example, the unconscious bias score "Range 31" is when the unconscious bias score of an organization is equal to or greater than the third threshold. Note that ranges 31, 32, 33, 34, and 35 do not have overlapping ranges.

[0259] The member management unit 113 stores a member management table shown in FIG. 21. The member management table is a table for managing information about members. The member management table shown in FIG. 19 is a management table for members (members of the organization of "C1") corresponding to organization identifier "C1". In FIG. 19, the member management table manages two or more records having "member identifier", "gender", "department identifier", and "department name". Note that "gender", "department identifier", and "department name" are examples of member attribute values. Note that it is preferable that the member management unit 113 also stores member management tables of other organizations.

[0260] The answer management unit 114 stores an answer management table shown in FIG. 22. The answer management table is a table that manages member answers of two or more members. The answer management table has two or more records having a "member identifier," "risk answer / occurrence answer," "human rights due diligence answer," "psychological safety answer," and "unconscious bias answer." The "risk answer / occurrence answer" is a risk answer and an occurrence answer for each item of each classification such as classification A, classification B, etc. The "human rights due diligence answer" is an answer to each of two or more questions belonging to classification 1. The "psychological safety answer" is an answer to each of two or more questions belonging to classification 2. The "unconscious bias answer" is an answer to each of two or more questions belonging to classification 3.

[0261] The classification identifiers "Classification A", "Classification B", etc. are classification identifiers corresponding to the first questionnaire (Figure 14) and are classifications for which understanding and occurrence are to be obtained. The classification identifiers "Classification 1", "Classification 2", and "Classification 3" are classification identifiers corresponding to the second questionnaire (Figure 15). "Classification 1" is the answer to human rights due diligence question 1501. "Classification 2" is the answer to psychological safety question 1502, and "Classification 3" is the answer to unconscious bias question 1503. "11" in "Classification 1" is the answer to the first question of 1501 in Figure 15, and "12" is the answer to the second question of 1501.

[0262] The member responses in the response management table are stored as follows: Two or more members respond to a questionnaire (FIGS. 14 and 15) having two or more questions that is received from the human rights questionnaire processing device 1 and displayed on the terminal device 2, and the member responses, which are a collection of the responses, are sent from the terminal device 2 to the human rights questionnaire processing device 1. The response receiving unit 122 of the human rights questionnaire processing device 1 then receives the member responses paired with two or more member identifiers, and the processing unit 13 stores the member responses in the response management table in pairs with the member identifiers.

[0263] In the above situation, assume that a user U, who is the representative of the management department of organization "C1," inputs an output command "<organization identifier> C1" to the terminal device 2 to obtain information on the human rights status of employees in his / her company. The terminal device 2 then accepts the output command and transmits it to the human rights questionnaire processing device 1.

[0264] Next, the instruction receiving unit 121 of the human rights questionnaire processing device 1 receives the output instruction "<organization identifier>C1".

[0265] Next, the processing unit 13 obtains the results of statistical processing on the responses of two or more members of organization "C1" as follows.

[0266] That is, the processing unit 13 obtains the condition "organization identifier=C1" for determining one or more members to be the subject of statistical processing from the received output instruction. The processing unit 13 obtains all records in the response management table (FIG. 22) which are the member responses of two or more members that satisfy "organization identifier=C1".

[0267] Next, the understanding level acquisition unit 131, following the operation of the flowchart in FIG. 6, acquires points (e.g., "P111", "P122", etc., which are also understanding level source information) corresponding to risk answers to two or more risk questions of each member's answer, which is "whether or not you feel that the human rights risk is high", for each classification such as classifications "A", "B", ..., "G", etc., from the score information in FIG. 14, and calculates the understanding level of each member by adding up the two or more points. Next, the understanding level acquisition unit 131 calculates the understanding level of organization "C1", which is a representative value (here, an average value) of the understanding levels of two or more members for each classification. It is assumed that the understanding level acquisition unit 131 acquires an understanding level of "65" for classification "A" and an understanding level of "77" for classification "B", etc.

[0268] Next, the occurrence degree acquisition unit 132, following the operation of the flowchart in FIG. 7, acquires points (e.g., "Q111", "Q122", etc., which are also occurrence degree source information) corresponding to the occurrence answer of each member to the occurrence question of "whether or not you have seen, heard, or experienced it in the company in the past" for each classification such as classifications "A", "B", "G", etc., from the score information in FIG. 14, and calculates the occurrence degree of each member by adding up the points. Next, the occurrence degree acquisition unit 132 calculates the occurrence degree of organization "C1", which is a representative value (here, the average value) of the occurrence degrees of two or more members for each classification. It is assumed that the occurrence degree acquisition unit 132 acquires the occurrence degree of "30" for classification "A" and the occurrence degree of "20" for classification "B", etc.

[0269] As a result of the above, an understanding level / occurrence level management table (FIG. 23) for managing the understanding level and occurrence level of the organization “C1” is obtained. Next, the degree output unit 141 transmits the understanding level / occurrence level management table of FIG.

[0270] Next, the processing unit 13 uses the understanding level and occurrence level obtained for each classification to construct a two-dimensional plane that clearly shows the positions of the pairs of understanding level and occurrence level plotted for each classification, in accordance with the operations of the flowchart in Figure 8.

[0271] Next, the degree output unit 141 transmits the two-dimensional plane to the terminal device 2 of the user U.

[0272] The terminal device 2 receives and outputs the understanding level / occurrence level management table and the two-dimensional plane. Examples of such output are shown in Fig. 23 and Fig. 24. The two-dimensional plane in Fig. 24 is a two-dimensional plane with the occurrence level (10) and the understanding level (73) as the origins, for example. The units of occurrence level and understanding level are "%" here.

[0273] Next, the risk type acquisition unit 133 determines a type for each quadrant on the two-dimensional plane in Fig. 24 for each classification of the understanding level and occurrence level. That is, the risk type acquisition unit 133 acquires a human rights risk type that is paired with a matching condition for each classification using the conditions in Fig. 17. As a result, the risk type acquisition unit 133 determines that classifications "B", "F", and "E" correspond to human rights risk type 1 (2501 in Fig. 25), classification "A" corresponds to human rights risk type 2 (2502 in Fig. 25), classification "C" corresponds to human rights risk type 3 (2503 in Fig. 25), and other classifications correspond to human rights risk type 4 (good type).

[0274] Next, the comment acquisition unit 138 acquires comments corresponding to each human rights risk type from the table in Fig. 17. Then, the comment acquisition unit 138 composes information to be output. Next, the type output unit 142 outputs the information composed by the comment acquisition unit 138.

[0275] Next, the terminal device 2 of the user U receives and outputs the information. An example of such output is shown in Fig. 25. In Fig. 25, each human rights risk type has a corresponding classification and comment information (response).

[0276] Next, the access risk score acquisition unit 135 acquires the access risk score of organization "C1" according to the flowchart in Fig. 9. That is, the access risk score acquisition unit 135 uses the human rights due diligence answers included in each member answer of organization "C1" to refer to the table in Fig. 16, and acquires the access risk score paired with the answer pattern matching each member answer from the table in Fig. 16. Next, it is assumed that the access risk score acquisition unit 135 calculates a representative value (here, an average value) "19" of the access risk scores of two or more members.

[0277] Next, the psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 acquires the psychological safety score of organization "C1" according to the flowchart in Fig. 10. That is, the psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 acquires the psychological safety score of each member of organization "C1" using the psychological safety answers included in the answers of each member of organization "C1". Next, it is assumed that the psychological safety score acquisition unit 136 calculates a representative value (here, the average value) of the scores of two or more members, "36".

[0278] Next, the unconscious bias score acquisition unit 137 acquires the unconscious bias score of the organization "C1" according to the flowchart of Fig. 11. That is, the unconscious bias score acquisition unit 137 acquires the unconscious bias score of each member of the organization "C1" using the unconscious bias answer included in each member's answer. Next, the unconscious bias score acquisition unit 137 calculates a representative value (here, the average value) "53" of the unconscious bias scores of two or more members.

[0279] Next, the comment acquisition unit 138 acquires the 5-point rating "B" corresponding to the access risk score "19" of the organization "C1" and the "Comment (overall rating)" and "Comment (risk of further reducing / ignoring risk)" from the table in FIG. 18.

[0280] In addition, the comment acquisition unit 138 acquires the 5-point rating "C" corresponding to the psychological safety score "36" of organization "C1" and the "Comment (overall assessment)" and "Comment (Risk due to further reducing / ignoring risk)" from the table in Figure 19.

[0281] In addition, the comment acquisition unit 138 acquires the 5-point rating "D" corresponding to the unconscious bias score "53" of organization "C1" and the "Comment (overall assessment)" and "Comment (Risk of further reducing / ignoring risk)" from the table in FIG. 20.

[0282] Next, the access risk score output unit 144 etc. transmit the access risk score etc. of Fig. 26 to the terminal device 2 of user U. In addition, the psychological safety score output unit 145 etc. transmit the psychological safety score etc. of Fig. 27 to the terminal device 2 of user U. In addition, the unconscious bias score output unit 146 etc. transmit the unconscious bias score etc. of Fig. 28 to the terminal device 2 of user U.

[0283] The total score acquisition unit 134 also uses at least the understanding level and occurrence level of the organization “C1” to acquire a total score that is larger as the understanding level is higher and smaller as the occurrence level is higher. Next, the total score output unit 143 transmits the total score to the terminal device 2.

[0284] Next, the terminal device 2 receives and outputs the tables of FIGS. 26, 27, and 28 and the total score.

[0285] As described above, according to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a human rights questionnaire processing device 1 that can appropriately support human rights due diligence.
