[0013] The present invention will be described below through embodiments of the invention, but the invention according to the claims is not limited to the following embodiments. Furthermore, not all of the configurations described in the embodiments are necessarily essential means for solving the problems. For clarity of explanation, the following description and drawings have been omitted and simplified as appropriate. In each drawing, the same elements are given the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted as necessary.

[0014] First Embodiment (Information Management System 1) An overview of the configuration of the information management system 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram of the information management system 1 according to an embodiment. The information management system 1 manages personnel information of users who are job seekers or employees so that the information can be provided to businesses. The information management system 1 mainly comprises a personnel information management device 10, a certificate verification system 20, a business terminal 30, and a resident information management platform 50. These components of the information management system 1 are communicably connected to a network N1.

[0015] The personnel information management device 10 manages personnel information of users who are job seekers or employees in order to provide it to businesses. The personnel information management device 10 is a computer or a server. The personnel information management device 10 acts as an intermediary between an identity verifiable medium 41 owned by the user and a public personal authentication service, causing the resident information management platform 50 to perform resident identification authentication of the user using the public personal authentication service. The identity verifiable medium 41 is typically a My Number card. Resident identification authentication is authentication performed to access the resident information management platform. In other words, if the resident identification authentication is successful, the personnel information management device 10 can access the resident information management platform 50. The user causes the business operator terminal 30 to read the identity verifiable medium 41 owned by the user. The personnel information management device 10 also uses the certificate verification system 20 to perform resident identification authentication of the user.

[0016] If the resident identification authentication is successful, the personnel information management device 10 acquires the user's employment insurance information via the resident information management platform 50. The personnel information management device 10 acquires the employment insurance information, and generates and manages work history information from the acquired employment insurance information. Furthermore, if the user gives permission to output the work history information to a business operator terminal 30 managed by the business operator, the personnel information management device 10 outputs the work history information to the business operator terminal 30 of the business operator related to the permission.

[0017] The My Number Card is an IC card that can be used as an identification card for identity verification, as well as for various services such as local government services and electronic applications using electronic certificates, such as e-Tax. The My Number Card displays a My Number (personal identification number), which is legally limited in the scope of its use, on its face. It also contains an IC chip that stores electronic certificates and applications (APs) that can be widely used, including by private businesses. This IC chip stores a signature electronic certificate and a user authentication electronic certificate. The signature electronic certificate is used when creating and sending electronic documents with electronic signatures over the Internet, etc. The user authentication electronic certificate is used when logging in to various government and private service websites. My Number Card users can use these electronic certificates when authenticated by a certification authority, such as by entering the PIN number set for each electronic certificate.

[0018] The certificate validation system 20 performs at least part of the function of validating an electronic certificate obtained from an identity verification medium 41 in a public personal authentication service. More specifically, the certificate validation system 20 provides revocation information for the electronic certificate.

[0019] The certificate validation system 20 may be, for example, a system that performs authentication for the public personal authentication service operated by the Japan Agency for Local Authority Information Systems (J-LIS). The public personal authentication service is a means of identity verification used when carrying out administrative procedures such as online applications and notifications via the Internet.

[0020] The business operator terminal 30 is a computer owned by the business operator. The business operator terminal 30 includes a media reading unit. The media reading unit reads an electronic certificate mounted on an integrated circuit built into the personal identification medium 41. The media reading unit has, for example, a short-range wireless communication function that complies with a predetermined standard. If the resident identification authentication using the personal identification medium 41 read by the business operator terminal 30 is successful, and the user further permits the output of the work history information, the business operator terminal 30 receives the work history information from the personnel information management device 10. This allows the business operator managing the business operator terminal 30 to view or obtain the user's work history information. In other words, the business operator managing the business operator terminal 30 can manage the work history information obtained from the personnel information management device 10 as the user's personnel information. Note that the media reading unit may be located outside the business operator terminal 30.

[0021] The resident information management platform 50 is a platform for the national or local government to manage information about residents. The resident information management platform 50 has, for example, an employment insurance information database 51. The employment insurance information database 51 stores employment insurance information for residents, including users. The employment insurance information includes the date on which an insured person under employment insurance became eligible for employment insurance, the date on which the insured person left their job, the name of the employment insurance provider, and the like.

[0022] In addition to the employment insurance information database 51, the resident information management platform 50 also manages various information such as residents' taxes, income, vaccinations, and pensions. The resident information management platform 50 accepts access from residents who have been successfully authenticated by the public personal authentication service. The resident information management platform 50 typically plays a role in providing administrative information to residents through My Number Portal, an administrative service operated by the government.

[0023] (Human resources information management device 10) Next, the personnel information management device 10 will be further described with reference to Figure 2. Figure 2 is a block diagram of the personnel information management device 10. The personnel information management device 10 manages personnel information of users who are job seekers or employees in order to provide it to businesses. The personnel information management device 10 mainly comprises an authentication management unit 11, an insurance information acquisition unit 12, a work history information management unit 13, an information output unit 14, and a memory unit 15.

[0024] In order to access the resident information management platform 50, which manages information on residents including the user, the authentication management unit 11 mediates between the user's personal identification medium and the public personal authentication service and performs resident identification authentication of the user using the public personal authentication service. More specifically, the authentication management unit 11 receives information on the personal identification medium 41 from the business operator terminal 30 and provides the received information to the resident information management platform 50 or the business operator terminal 30. The information on the personal identification medium 41 is, for example, an electronic certificate. In this case, the authentication management unit 11 can set an identifier for the user whose resident identification authentication has been successful and manage the set identifier.

[0025] If the resident verification authentication is successful, the insurance information acquisition unit 12 acquires employment insurance information including at least information related to employment insurance of the user via the resident information management platform 50.

[0026] The work history information management unit 13 generates work history information of the user based on the employment insurance information and manages the generated work history information. In this case, the work history information management unit 13 stores the generated work history information in the storage unit 15. At this time, the work history information management unit 13 manages the work history information in association with the user identifier set by the authentication management unit 11.

[0027] The employment history information management unit 13 generates employment history information from the employment insurance information, for example, using history regarding the employers the user belonged to and history regarding employment insurance qualification acquisition and disqualification dates. That is, the employment history information management unit 13 extracts the above information from the employment insurance information, groups employment relationships with employers along a time axis, and processes the information into employment history for each employer. The specific means by which the employment history information management unit 13 generates employment history information may be to perform rule-based calculations or may be based on a learning model.

[0028] When a user gives permission to output the work history information to the business terminal 30, the information output unit 14 outputs the work history information to the business terminal of the business related to the permission. That is, the information output unit 14 may output the work history information to the business terminal 30, for example. The user's permission may be executed by a user operation, for example, when the user supplies information on the identity verifiable medium 41 to the personnel information management device 10 via the business terminal 30. In this case, the user operation may be an operation to obtain the user's consent. The user's permission may also be realized by the user's operation to designate a specific business.

[0029] The storage unit 15 is a storage device including a non-volatile memory. The storage unit 15 stores a program that enables the personnel information management device 10 to realize the functions of the present disclosure. The storage unit 15 also stores the employment history information generated by the employment history information management unit 13. The storage unit 15 may also store employment insurance information acquired by the insurance information acquisition unit 12.

[0030] (Example of hardware configuration) Fig. 3 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the hardware configuration of a computer. The above-described personnel information management device 10 may have the configuration shown in Fig. 3. The computer 1000 has a bus 1010, a processor 1020, a memory 1030, a storage device 1040, an input / output interface 1050, and a network interface 1060.

[0031] The bus 1010 is a data transmission path for transmitting and receiving data among the processor 1020, memory 1030, storage device 1040, input / output interface 1050, and network interface 1060. However, the method of connecting the processor 1020 and the like to each other is not limited to bus connection.

[0032] The processor 1020 is a circuit including an arithmetic unit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit).

[0033] The memory 1030 is a main storage device realized using a RAM (Random Access Memory) or the like.

[0034] The storage device 1040 is an auxiliary storage device such as a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), a flash memory, or a read only memory (ROM), etc. The storage device 1040 stores programs for realizing the functions of the present disclosure.

[0035] The processor 1020 reads the program into the memory 1030 and executes it, thereby causing the processor 1020 to execute the functions corresponding to the program. In other words, the program stored in the memory 1030 causes the computer 1000 to execute the functions of the present disclosure.

[0036] The input / output interface 1050 connects the computer 1000 to a predetermined input / output device. The input / output device is, for example, an input device such as a keyboard, an output device such as a display, or an input / output device in which a touch panel is superimposed on a display.

[0037] The network interface 1060 is an interface for connecting the computer 1000 to a predetermined communication network.

[0038] The computer 1000 has been described above, but in addition to the above configuration, the computer 1000 may have an information input device that allows a user to input various information to the computer 1000 through operation. The information input device is, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, or a touch panel. The computer 1000 may also have a display, a speaker, a vibration motor, an LED (light-emitting diode), or the like for displaying various information to the user.

[0039] (Human resources information management method) Next, the processing executed by the personnel information management device 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a flowchart of the personnel information management method according to the first embodiment. The flowchart shown in Fig. 4 starts, for example, when the business operator terminal 30 reads the personal identification medium 41 and supplies the read information to the personnel information management device 10.

[0040] In step S110, in order to access the resident information management platform 50, the authentication management unit 11 mediates between the user's personal identification medium 41 and the public personal authentication service, and performs resident identification and authentication of the user using the public personal authentication service.

[0041] In step S120, the insurance information acquisition unit 12 determines whether the resident identification authentication was successful. If the insurance information acquisition unit 12 determines that the resident identification authentication was successful (step S120: YES), the process proceeds to step S130. If the insurance information acquisition unit 12 does not determine that the resident identification authentication was successful (step S120: NO), the personnel information management device 10 ends the series of processes.

[0042] In step S130, if the resident verification authentication is successful, the insurance information acquisition unit 12 acquires employment insurance information including at least information related to employment insurance of the user via the resident information management platform 50.

[0043] In step S140, the work history information management unit 13 generates work history information of the user based on the employment insurance information. At this time, the work history information management unit 13 stores the generated work history information in the storage unit 15. The work history information management unit 13 also manages the work history information by associating it with the user's identifier.

[0044] In step S150, the information output unit 14 determines whether the user has given permission to output the work history information. If the information output unit 14 determines that the user has given permission (step S150: YES), the process proceeds to step S160. If the information output unit 14 does not determine that the user has given permission (step S150: NO), the personnel information management device 10 ends the series of processes.

[0045] In step S160, when the user gives permission to output the work history information to the business operator terminal 30, the information output unit 14 outputs the work history information to the business operator terminal 30 related to the permission. That is, in this case, the information output unit 14 outputs the work history information to the business operator terminal 30. When the information output unit 14 outputs the work history information, the personnel information management device 10 ends the series of processes.

[0046] The foregoing has described the personnel information management method executed by the personnel information management device 10. With this method, the personnel information management device 10 generates work history information from employment insurance information for which resident verification authentication has been successful, and manages the generated work history information so that it can be output to the business operator terminal 30. Therefore, the personnel information management device 10 can provide highly reliable work history information to the business operator.

[0047] Next, the work history information generated by the personnel information management device 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing the work history information according to the first embodiment.

[0048] The work history information shown in Figure 5 includes at least the user's name and affiliation history. The work history information is the work history information of the user "**Ichiro". The affiliation history includes affiliation history (1) and affiliation history (2). Affiliation history (1) includes the business name "XX Co., Ltd." and the affiliated institution. Affiliation history (2) includes the business name "△△ Co., Ltd." and the affiliated institution. In this case, affiliation history (1) is the business to which "**Ichiro" belonged in the period before affiliation history (2). Affiliation history (2) is the business to which "**Ichiro" belonged in the period after affiliation history (1).

[0049] The work history information shown in FIG. 5 includes an identifier. The identifier corresponds at least to the user's resident identification authentication. The identifier is, for example, a lifetime unique ID created based on the serial number of the electronic certificate stored in the user's identity verification medium 41, a hashed version of the serial number, or basic four information. The basic four information is the user's name, date of birth, address, and gender. The personnel information management device 10 manages the user's work history information in association with a unique identifier, thereby improving the reliability and consistency of the management of the work history information.

[0050] The above has described the first embodiment. According to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a personnel information management device, a personnel information management method, and a program that enable highly reliable work history information to be provided to businesses.

[0051] Each component of the personnel information management device 10 may be realized by dedicated hardware. Furthermore, some or all of the components may be realized by general-purpose or dedicated circuits, processors, etc., or a combination thereof. These may be configured by a single chip, or by multiple chips connected via a bus. Some or all of the components may be realized by a combination of the above-mentioned circuits, etc., and programs. Furthermore, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), etc. may be used as the processor. Furthermore, at least some of the functions of this embodiment may be provided in the form of IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), SaaS (Software as a Service), etc.

[0052] Second Embodiment Next, a second embodiment will be described. Fig. 6 is a block diagram of an information management system 1 according to the second embodiment. The information management system 1 according to this embodiment includes a first business operator terminal 31 and a second business operator terminal 32. The information management system 1 also includes a user terminal 40.

[0053] The first operator terminal 31 is a terminal managed by the first operator. The first operator terminal 31 is a server or a computer. The second operator terminal 32 is a terminal managed by a second operator different from the first operator. The second operator terminal 32 is a server or a computer.

[0054] The user terminal 40 is a terminal used by a user. The user terminal 40 is, for example, a smartphone or a tablet terminal. The user terminal 40 includes a medium reading unit for reading the personal identification medium 41. The medium reading unit is, for example, a reading / writing device that complies with the NFC standard.

[0055] The personnel information management device 10 in this embodiment has a function to perform identity authentication using an identity verifiable medium 41, in addition to resident identification authentication for obtaining employment insurance information from the employment insurance information database 51. Identity authentication is authentication performed to read user information stored in the identity verifiable medium 41. If identity authentication is successful, the personnel information management device 10 obtains specified user information from the identity verifiable medium 41. The user information may include the four basic pieces of information. The user information may also include information other than the four basic pieces of information, such as the user's telephone number and email address.

[0056] The certificate validation system 20 in this embodiment verifies that the authentication procedure performed by a user using a user terminal 40 is authentic. For example, the certificate validation system 20 receives information about the user sent by the user terminal 40 and verifies that this information is authentic. Specifically, the certificate validation system 20 performs the verification process by, for example, comparing pre-stored information corresponding to the user's authentication with information provided by the user terminal 40. The information provided by the user terminal 40 may include, for example, signature information or key information. The certificate validation system 20 feeds back the verification results to at least either the user terminal 40 or the personnel information management device 10.

[0057] Next, the personnel information management device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a block diagram of a personnel information management device according to a second embodiment. The personnel information management device 10 according to the present embodiment has a user information acquisition unit 16. Furthermore, the storage unit 15 according to the present embodiment stores personnel information 151.

[0058] The authentication management unit 11 in this embodiment performs identity verification and authentication by having the certificate verification system 20 verify the electronic certificate received from the identity verification medium 41 owned by the user.

[0059] If the identity verification authentication is successful, the user information acquisition unit 16 acquires the user information from the identity verification medium 41. The user information acquisition unit 16 supplies the acquired user information to the work history information management unit 13.

[0060] In this embodiment, when a user related to resident identification authentication and a user related to identity authentication match, the work history information management unit 13 generates work history information based on user information and employment insurance information and manages the generated work history information so that it can be output. Note that when a user related to resident identification authentication and a user related to identity authentication match, the first identifier assigned to the user in resident identification authentication and the second identifier assigned to the user in identity authentication belong to the same person.

[0061] In this case, the first identifier and the second identifier belong to the same person when, for example, the first identifier and the second identifier match. Alternatively, the first identifier and the second identifier belong to the same person when the first identifier and the second identifier have a unique correspondence relationship. With this configuration, the personnel information management device 10 can generate highly reliable information.

[0062] In this embodiment, the employment history information management unit 13 may further include a resume input support function. The resume input support function is a function that generates information to be included in a user's resume based on employment history information, user information, and a preset resume format. In this case, the employment history information management unit 13 manages the information to be included in the user's resume so that it can be output to the user terminal 40. This allows users of the personnel information management device 10 to easily use highly reliable employment history information when job hunting.

[0063] The storage unit 15 in this embodiment stores personnel information 151. The personnel information 151 includes work history information. In addition to work history information, the personnel information 151 may include information about users that does not fall under the work history information. The information about users that does not fall under the work history information may include, for example, information about the user's work skills, qualifications, or activities outside the business. By including this information, the personnel information management device 10 can provide businesses with comprehensive personnel information that goes beyond work history information.

[0064] In this embodiment, the work history information management unit 13 may have a function of receiving the user's job description from the first business that employs the user and adding the received job description to the work history information. In other words, the work history information includes the job description. This allows the personnel information management device 10 to generate work history information or personnel information that can be suitably used for personnel operations and provide the generated work history information or personnel information to the business.

[0065] The personnel information management device 10 receives the user's job description from the first business operator on or after the day the user becomes eligible for employment insurance related to the first business operator. That is, the personnel information management device 10 grants the first business operator permission to write the job description in the user's work history information on or after the day the user becomes eligible for employment insurance related to the first business operator. The permission to write may be set to be cancelled on the day the user leaves the first business operator.

[0066] In this embodiment, the employment history information management unit 13 may have a function for managing the job description entered by the first employer so that it can be displayed on the second employer terminal 32 managed by the second employer when the user leaves the first employer and transfers to the second employer. That is, the personnel information management device 10 may provide the second employer with employment history information, including the user's affiliation history with the first employer. In this case, for example, the personnel information management device 10 grants the second employer permission to view the user's employment history information after the user becomes eligible for employment insurance with the second employer. This configuration allows the personnel information management device 10 to easily provide employers with highly reliable employment history information. In this case, the employment history information management unit 13 may send a request for permission to view the employment history information to the user terminal 40 before granting permission to view the second employer, and set the permission when the request for permission to view the employment history information is received from the user terminal 40.

[0067] Next, the processing executed by the personnel information management device 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 8. Fig. 8 is a first flowchart of a personnel information management method according to the second embodiment. The flowchart shown in Fig. 8 differs from the flowchart in the first embodiment in that it includes steps S101 to S103. The flowchart in Fig. 8 also differs from the flowchart in the first embodiment in the processing between steps S130 and S150.

[0068] In step S101, the authentication management unit 11 performs identity verification authentication. More specifically, the authentication management unit 11 receives an electronic certificate obtained by the user by having the user terminal 40 read the identity verification medium 41, and performs identity verification authentication by having the certificate verification system 20 verify the received electronic certificate.

[0069] In step S102, the user information acquisition unit 16 determines whether the identity verification authentication has been successful. If the user information acquisition unit 16 determines that the identity verification authentication has been successful (step S102: YES), the process proceeds to step S103. If the user information acquisition unit 16 does not determine that the identity verification authentication has been successful (step S102: NO), the personnel information management device 10 ends the series of processes.

[0070] In step S103, if the identity authentication is successful, the user information acquisition unit 16 acquires user information from the identity verifiable medium 41. Note that the user information acquisition unit 16 preferably performs identity authentication through a single reading process performed by bringing the user terminal 40 and the identity verifiable medium 41 close to each other once, and acquires the user information from the identity verifiable medium 41 within the session period during which the identity authentication is performed. This allows the personnel information management device 10 to perform identity authentication and acquire user information by having the user bring the identity verifiable medium 41 close to the user terminal 40 once. Once the user information acquisition unit 16 has acquired the user information, the personnel information management device 10 proceeds to step S110. The processing of steps S110 and S120 is the same as that of the first embodiment (see FIG. 4).

[0071] After the insurance information acquisition unit 12 acquires the employment insurance information in step S130, the work history information management unit 13 determines in step S135 whether the user in the identity verification authentication matches the user in the resident identification authentication. If the work history information management unit 13 determines that the user in the identity verification authentication matches the user in the resident identification authentication (step S135: YES), the process proceeds to step S141. If the work history information management unit 13 does not determine that the user in the identity verification authentication matches the user in the resident identification authentication (step S135: NO), the personnel information management device 10 ends the series of processes.

[0072] In step S141, the work history information management unit 13 generates work history information from the user information and employment insurance information. After the work history information management unit 13 generates the work history information, the process proceeds to step S150. The process of step S160 is the same as that of the first embodiment (see FIG. 4).

[0073] The processing of the personnel information management device 10 in the second embodiment has been described above. In the flowchart shown in Fig. 8, the processing for acquiring user information (steps S101 to S103) and the processing for acquiring employment insurance information (steps S110 to S130) may be performed in reverse order. Furthermore, at least part of the processing for acquiring user information and the processing for acquiring employment insurance information may be performed in parallel.

[0074] Through the above-described processing, the personnel information management device 10 in this embodiment can easily provide highly reliable work history information to businesses.

[0075] Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the work history information in this embodiment will be described. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing work history information according to a second embodiment. The work history information shown in FIG. 9 is work history information of a user whose name is "**Ichiro." The work history information has a "viewing permission" column. "Viewing permission" includes "first business operator" and "second business operator." In other words, the first business operator can view the work history information of "**Ichiro" via the first business operator terminal 31. Similarly, the second business operator can view the work history information of "**Ichiro" via the second business operator terminal 32. In this case, the work history information management unit 13 may receive settings regarding viewing permission for the work history information from the user via the user terminal 40.

[0076] The work history information shown in FIG. 8 includes "Department" and "Job Description" in the affiliation history (1). The department and job description in the affiliation history (1) were written by the first business operator via the first business operator terminal 31. The affiliation history (1) includes a "Write Permission: None" column. This indicates that no one has permission to write the contents of the affiliation history (1). In other words, the first business operator had permission to write the contents of the affiliation history (1) while the user was employed by the first business operator, but this permission was lost after the user left the first business operator. In this case, the work history information management unit 13 may, for example, accept a setting regarding permission to write the work history information from the user via the user terminal 40. The setting regarding permission to write may be triggered by a write request from the first business operator and may be set by the user via the user terminal 40 in response to the write request.

[0077] Like the affiliation history (1), the affiliation history (2) also includes columns for the department and job description. The affiliation history (2) also lists the second business in the write permission column. In other words, the contents of the affiliation history (2) in the work history information are writable by the second business.

[0078] In this way, the work history information in this embodiment is set to be viewable and writable, which allows the personnel information management device 10 to easily provide the business operator with highly reliable work history information plus additional information.

[0079] Next, a modified example of the processing executed by the personnel information management device 10 in this embodiment will be described. Fig. 10 is a second flowchart of the personnel information management method according to the second embodiment. The flowchart in Fig. 10 shows the processing when the employment history information management unit 13 generates employment history information.

[0080] In step S201, the employment history information management unit 13 determines whether the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of separation from employment. If the latest date is the date of separation from employment, the user is no longer eligible for employment insurance after separation from employment. In other words, the user is unemployed. If the employment history information management unit 13 determines that the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of separation from employment (step S201: YES), the employment history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S202. If the employment history information management unit 13 does not determine that the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of separation from employment (step S201: NO), the employment history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S205.

[0081] In step S202, the work history information management unit 13 sets the user to be unemployed. After setting the user to be unemployed, the work history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S203.

[0082] In step S203, the work history information management unit 13 determines whether or not the user's work history information already exists. More specifically, the work history information management unit 13 reads the user's identifier and compares it with the identifier in the existing work history information. If it is determined that the user's work history information already exists (step S203: YES), the work history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S204. If it is not determined that the user's work history information already exists (step S203: NO), the work history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S207.

[0083] In step S204, the work history information management unit 13 performs a process of updating the existing work history information. That is, the work history information management unit 13 performs a process of adding new work history information to the existing work history information. After updating the work history information, the work history information management unit 13 ends the process of generating work history information.

[0084] In step S205, the employment history information management unit 13 determines whether the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of qualification acquisition. If the latest date is the date of qualification acquisition, the user is employed by the business operator related to the qualification acquisition. If the employment history information management unit 13 determines that the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of qualification acquisition (step S205: YES), proceed to step S206. If the employment history information management unit 13 does not determine that the latest date in the employment insurance information is the date of qualification acquisition (step S205: NO), the employment history information management unit 13 ends the series of processes.

[0085] In step S206, the employment history information management unit 13 sets the user as being employed by the business associated with the most recent qualification acquisition date. After setting the user as being employed, the employment history information management unit 13 proceeds to step S203.

[0086] In step S207, if the user's work history information does not exist, the work history information management unit 13 creates new work history information for the user. After creating the new work history information, the work history information management unit 13 ends the process.

[0087] The above describes the processing executed by the employment history information management unit 13. With this configuration, the personnel information management device 10 appropriately updates or creates new employment history information for the user. Furthermore, with this configuration, the personnel information management device 10 sets whether or not the user is employed. The personnel information management device 10 stores employment status information indicating whether or not the user is employed in the personnel information 151.

[0088] Next, the personnel information 151 stored in the storage unit 15 will be described with reference to Fig. 11. Fig. 11 is a diagram showing personnel information 151 according to the second embodiment. The personnel information shown in Fig. 11 includes a plurality of users and personnel information related to the users. The personnel information includes the user's name, the user's address, the user's work history information, the user's employment status, etc.

[0089] For example, user 0001 is personnel information related to "**Ichiro." The address of "**Ichiro" is shown as "A Prefecture, B City...." The work history information of "**Ichiro" is, for example, as shown in Figure 9. The employment status of "**Ichiro" is "employed." Similarly, "***Hanako," who is managed as user 0002, has the address "C Prefecture, D Town...." The work history information of "***Hanako" is shown, and the employment status is "not employed."

[0090] The personnel information 151 has been described above. With the personnel information 151 configured as described above, the personnel information management device 10 can manage additional information as personnel information in addition to the work history information that can be obtained from employment insurance information and the additional information entered by the business operator. Specifically, for example, by managing employment status, the personnel information management device 10 can provide additional services such as notifying unemployed users of recruitment opportunities. In other words, the personnel information management device 10 can provide personnel information including the additional information to a predetermined service provider. This allows users who use the personnel information management device 10 to receive additional services related to the personnel information. The personnel information management device 10 may also provide additional services based on such personnel information.

[0091] The second embodiment has been described above. The personnel information management device 10 according to this embodiment generates highly reliable work history information and also generates information to be added to this information. The personnel information management device 10 can also generate personnel information that accompanies the work history information and provide this to other businesses, etc. Note that the provision of information is similar to that described in the first embodiment in that it is output only after obtaining permission from the user.

[0092] According to the above-described configuration, it is possible to provide a personnel information management device, a personnel information management method, and a program that enable businesses to be provided with highly reliable work history information and the accompanying additional information and supplementary information.

[0093] Third Embodiment Next, a third embodiment will be described. Fig. 12 is a block diagram of a personnel information management device 10 according to the third embodiment. The personnel information management device 10 shown in Fig. 10 has a commuting expense calculation unit 17 and an update unit 18.

[0094] The commuting expense calculation unit 17 calculates the commuting expense when commuting between two specified addresses. The work history information management unit 13 estimates the user's workplace at the business that employs the user from the work history information. Then, the commuting expense calculation unit 17 calculates the commuting expense between the user's address included in the user information and the user's workplace at the business.

[0095] The commuting expense calculation unit 17 realizes the functions described in this embodiment by using an external transportation expense calculation database. By having such functions, the personnel information management device 10 can provide useful information to businesses.

[0096] When a user's address stored in the resident information management platform 50 is updated, the update unit 18 receives the updated information. This allows the personnel information management device 10 to quickly reflect the updated information in the personnel information. Note that the update unit 18 may also be configured to receive updated information from the resident information management platform 50 about information other than the user's address.

[0097] As described above, according to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a personnel information management device, a personnel information management method, and a program that enable businesses to be provided with highly reliable work history information and accompanying additional information and supplementary information, and that also accommodates appropriate updates.

[0098] The above-mentioned program includes instructions (or software code) that, when loaded into a computer, cause the computer to perform one or more functions described in the embodiments. The program may be stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium or a tangible storage medium. By way of example and not limitation, the computer-readable medium or tangible storage medium includes random-access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), flash memory, solid-state drive (SSD), or other memory technology. The computer-readable medium or tangible storage medium includes CD-ROM, digital versatile disc (DVD), Blu-ray disc, or other optical disk storage. The computer-readable medium or tangible storage medium includes magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage, or other magnetic storage devices. The program may be transmitted on a transitory computer-readable medium or communication medium. By way of example and not limitation, the transitory computer-readable medium or communication medium includes electrical, optical, acoustic, or other forms of propagated signals.

[0099] Although the embodiments have been described above, the configurations of the above-described embodiments may be combined with each other, or some of the configurations may be replaced with other configurations. Furthermore, the configurations of the above-described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the invention.
