DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of services provided by an information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0011] This service is a membership-based service whose members include potential employees, namely, worker W, and employers K. When one or more employers K are each looking to recruit one or more workers W (e.g., part-time or casual workers), service provider S introduces jobs to the member's potential worker W and the employer K that is looking to recruit worker W from among them, resulting in an employment contract. Specifically, as shown in Figure 1, employer K requests service provider S to recruit worker W, and service provider S provides job information to its member candidates for worker W. The job information provided here is information about tentatively reserved work, not confirmed information. When a candidate for worker W applies for a desired job, the service provider S provides the candidate for worker W with a training video containing the content necessary for working in the job for which the candidate has applied, at a predetermined timing before the predetermined date and time when the work will start. The training videos are either provided to the service provider S in advance by the employer K, or the service provider S receives the training video materials and training data provided by the employer K, creates the training videos, and then receives permission to provide them from the employer K. In other words, the training videos only need to be prepared in advance on the service provider S side. When the service provider S acquires information that a candidate for worker W has finished watching the training video, the service provider S confirms the candidate for worker W as worker W, generates a confirmed work schedule, and provides the generated work schedule to each of worker W and employer K as work availability information. Here, generating a work schedule refers to, for example, a process of adding a confirmation flag to the job application information of the worker W, or adding the confirmed information of the worker W to the job management information of the employer K. Note that, in order to clearly indicate that the job has been confirmed for the worker W, a process of adding a mark such as "confirmed" to the column for the job that the worker W applied for is also performed (see FIG. 10(B)). According to this service, a member worker W applies for a job advertised by employer K, which triggers an employment relationship between the worker W and employer K (a tentative work schedule is entered), and the worker W can confirm the work schedule (become officially employed as a worker) by watching in advance a training video for the job provided by service provider S. As a result, a candidate for Worker W who applies for a job posting by Employer K can be prepared for the job and then employed as Worker W for Employer K's job.

[0012] 2, the information processing system according to this embodiment includes a server 1, worker terminals 2-1 to 2-n used by n workers W1 to Wn, respectively, and employer terminals 3-1 to 3-m used by m employers K3-1 to K3-m, respectively. The server 1, the worker terminals 2-1 to 2-n, and the employer terminals 3-1 to 3-m are interconnected via a network N. In addition, when there is no need to distinguish between the worker terminals 2-1 to 2-n, they will be collectively referred to as the "worker terminal 2." Similarly, when there is no need to distinguish between the employer terminals 3-1 to 3-n, they will be collectively referred to as the "employer terminal 3."

[0013] FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the hardware configuration of a server according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0014] The server 1 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 12, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 13, a bus 14, an input / output interface 15, an input unit 16, an output unit 17, a memory unit 18, a communication unit 19, and a drive 20.

[0015] The CPU 11 executes various processes according to a program recorded in the ROM 12 or a program loaded from the storage unit 18 into the RAM 13 . The RAM 13 also stores data and the like necessary for the CPU 11 to execute various processes.

[0016] The CPU 11, ROM 12, and RAM 13 are connected to one another via a bus 14. An input / output interface 15 is also connected to this bus 14. An input unit 16, an output unit 17, a storage unit 18, a communication unit 19, and a drive 20 are connected to the input / output interface 15.

[0017] The input unit 16 is made up of various buttons and the like, and inputs various information in response to user instructions. The output unit 17 is composed of a display, a speaker, etc., and outputs images and sounds. The storage unit 18 is configured by a hard disk or a DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory), etc., and stores various data. The communication unit 19 controls communication between the worker terminal 2 and the employer terminal 3 via a network N including the Internet.

[0018] Removable media 31, such as a magnetic disk, optical disk, magneto-optical disk, or semiconductor memory, is appropriately attached to the drive 20. Programs read from the removable media 31 by the drive 20 are installed in the storage unit 18 as needed. The removable media 31 can also store various data stored in the storage unit 18 in the same way as the storage unit 18.

[0019] Although not shown in the drawings, each of the worker terminal 2 and the employer terminal 3 has basically the same configuration and functions as the CPU 11 to the drive 20 in FIG.

[0020] FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram showing the functional configuration for executing the job introduction process among the functional configurations of the server 1.

[0021] 4, a job DB 61 is provided in one area of ​​the storage unit 18 of the server 1. The job DB 61 stores training videos for the work that is the subject of the job offer, viewing deadlines, employment information related to daily wage part-time work, worker information, test information, and viewing history.

[0022] The training video for the work that is the subject of the job advertisement includes, for example, a video that explains the work content and work of a person who actually works part-time for daily wages. The viewing time limit includes a time limit such as a predetermined time before the start date and time of the part-time job, for example, up to 48 hours before. Employment information includes the job details (part-time job details) of the worker recruitment (job offer) and information about the employer (company) that is recruiting (for example, company name, contact information, location, industry, etc.). Worker information includes information about registered worker candidates (employee candidates) and about workers who will actually be hired as workers (employees) from among the worker candidates (e.g., name, contact information, address, past work history, etc.).

[0023] In addition, when the job introduction process is executed by the server 1, at least one of the training video providing unit 51, the viewing end information acquiring unit 52, the job control unit 53, the viewing deadline setting unit 54, the viewing history management unit 55, the notification control unit 56, the test unit 57, and the retention control unit 58 functions in the CPU 11 of the server 1.

[0024] When an application procedure is performed for a job that starts at a specified date and time, such as a daily-paid part-time job conducting vehicle traffic volume surveys, which at least includes the establishment of an employment contract between employer K and a candidate worker W, the training video providing unit 51 provides the worker terminal 2 with a training video containing the content necessary for the part-time job conducting traffic volume surveys, 48 ​​hours or so before the specified date and time. Specifically, when an application operation or the like has been performed (first condition: application operation completed), the training video providing unit 51 displays a button on the job introduction app screen (hereinafter referred to as the "app screen") that encourages the candidate to watch a training video containing the content necessary for the traffic volume survey part-time job, for example, a link button 81b that reads "Watch job training video" in Fig. 9. Then, the training video providing unit 51 plays the training video in response to a viewing operation by the candidate worker W, that is, a tap operation on the link button 81b that reads "Watch training video." After the training video has finished playing, a message such as "Viewing completed" is displayed on the app screen, and then by tapping the "Go to My Page" link button 82b (see Figure 10(A)), the app screen will transition to the candidate worker W's My Page. Note that the example of the screen transition after the training video has finished playing is just an example, and other screen transitions may be possible. For example, after the training video has finished playing, a stop viewing button and a message urging the user to click the stop viewing button may be displayed on the app screen, and when the worker W candidate clicks the stop viewing button, the user may be transitioned to their personal page.

[0025] The viewing end information acquiring unit 52 acquires from the worker terminal 2 a trigger of an operation by the candidate worker W to end viewing of the training video (operation of the link button 82b of "Go to my page in FIG. 10(A)"). Specifically, the viewing end information acquisition unit 52 acquires the operation command when the candidate worker W clicks on the link button 82b of "Go to My Page" in Figure 10 (A) after finishing viewing the training video, and adds a viewing flag to the viewing history of the training video of the worker W. Furthermore, adding a viewing flag to the viewing history of the training video does not mean that the training video will no longer be viewable. Worker W can watch the training video as many times as he or she wants until the end of work by tapping the "Watch Work Training Video" link button 81b (see Figure 9) from his or her personal page. The purpose of having Worker W watch the training videos is to help them remember their work, so they can watch the videos from the start to the end of work on the day as many times as they like, allowing them to review the work content during breaks, etc.

[0026] When the working conditions, including at least the acquisition of an operation trigger indicating the end of viewing, are met, the work control unit 53 generates a work schedule indicating that the candidate for worker W is now able to engage in part-time work of traffic volume surveys as worker W, and provides this to each of the employer terminal 3 and the worker terminal 2. Specifically, for example, on the worker terminal 2, a mark 83 indicating the confirmation of work, including characters such as "Hired," is displayed in the confirmed part-time job column 71d in the job listings section of the job listings screen 71 (job search screen) shown in Fig. 10(B). In this embodiment, the mark 83 is used as an example, but something other than a mark may also be used. For example, a detailed work schedule may be inserted in a blank area.

[0027] The viewing time limit setting unit 54 sets a viewing time limit for the training video, which is specified by operating the employer terminal 3. Specifically, the viewing period setting unit 54 sets a viewing period for the explanatory video relating to the part-time job being recruited, which is specified by the employer K via the employer terminal 3. For example, in the case of a part-time job such as traffic volume survey that starts at 7:00 AM, a period of 48 hours is set so that the worker W must finish watching the training video by 7:00 AM two days before the start of work. This allows the worker W to set the time by which he or she must watch the training video (before starting work). The viewing period can be changed by the employer K changing the settings.

[0028] The viewing history management unit 55 acquires a viewing history indicating the history of training video viewing by the worker W and the worker W candidates, and provides the same to the employer terminal 3. Specifically, the viewing history management unit 55 reads the viewing history (work history) of the candidate member for the worker W from the job DB 61 and provides this list to the employer terminal 3, allowing employer K to view what training videos the candidate for worker W has viewed in the past.By viewing this, employer K can determine the candidate for worker W's work history (what kind of work he or she has done, etc.) and his or her effectiveness based on the training content (whether he or she knows the work tasks, etc.).

[0029] The notification control unit 56 presents a second condition, such as watching a training video before work (for example, watching a training video before work and passing a test), and then determines whether a specified third condition (such as 48 hours having passed) has been met.If the trigger for clicking the end viewing button has not yet been obtained at the time the third condition is met (48 hours having passed), an alert (such as a notification email or a screen alert) is provided to the worker terminal 2 to encourage viewing of the training video. Specifically, when an application is made, the notification control unit 56 reads the viewing deadline from the job DB 61, sets a timer based on the viewing deadline, and if a viewing flag has not been added to the viewing history when the timer times out, outputs a notification email or a screen alert urging the worker W to watch the training video to the worker terminal 2. This makes it possible to remind the worker W if he or she has unintentionally forgotten to watch the training video and make him or her watch it.

[0030] The notification control unit 56 also stores the playback time of the training video at normal speed, and when the training video is played, it operates a timer to measure the time that the worker W has watched the training video, compares the normal playback time of the training video with the viewing time, and if the viewing time is shorter than the normal playback time of the training video, it determines that the worker W has skipped the video and outputs a message such as "Please watch it again." This makes it possible to ensure that the worker W watches the training video from beginning to end.

[0031] The test unit 57 detects the degree to which the candidate worker W has understood the content of the training video by a predetermined method (for example, by conducting a training test). Specifically, when the testing unit 57 is notified that the training video has finished viewing, it displays a test screen on the worker terminal 2, prompts the candidate for worker W to take the test, and the candidate for worker W clicks the start button to execute the test.

[0032] The test involves asking questions based on the content of the training video, obtaining answers through input operations by the candidate worker W, and then comparing the answers with pre-set answers to determine the percentage of correct answers. The degree of understanding (level of understanding) of the content of the training video is then detected from the accuracy rate of the test results. For example, if the accuracy rate is above a threshold (e.g., 70%), the test is passed (cleared). Note that the threshold value shown here is just an example, and it may be set to 90% or above, 50% or above, etc., and the set value can be changed depending on the risk and importance of the job, etc.

[0033] It is possible to create multiple test questions and set them randomly to prevent the test from becoming monotonous. For example, the most appropriate questions can be determined based on gender, work history, past job evaluations, age, region, etc. In addition, by having AI (artificial intelligence) or a machine learning device study the training videos and then generate test questions, the difficulty level (strength) of the questions can be adjusted according to the content of the work. That is, the test format may be other than the examples described above, as long as the training video demonstrates a certain level of understanding of the job content.

[0034] Once the second condition (for example, watching the training video before work and passing a test) is met for a candidate worker W who has watched the training video, the retention control unit 58 retains the fact that the second condition has been met for a predetermined period (for example, six months). Specifically, when the second condition is met, the retention control unit 58 assigns a permission flag to the viewing history in the work DB 61 indicating that the user is able to engage in the work, and after assigning the permission flag, retains the permission flag for a certain period of time. As a result, if a worker W has watched a training video once, when he / she is looking for the same type of work, he / she can apply for the same type of work within, for example, six months after watching the training video, without setting a condition of watching the video, thereby lowering the threshold for application. Note that in this embodiment, the fixed period is six months, but it can also be three months, one year, two years, etc., and the period can be freely set by the employer. In other words, once someone has watched the training video and gained experience in the job, they will be able to work in that job for a specified period of time (which can be set in advance by the company) without watching the training video again.

[0035] Next, with reference to FIG. 5, a job introduction process executed by the server having the functional configuration of FIG. 4 will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating the flow of a job introduction process executed by the server having the functional configuration of FIG.

[0036] In this information processing system, a job introduction app installed on the worker terminal 2 displays an app screen on the display unit of the worker terminal 2. On the app screen, a candidate for worker W selects a specific job that will start at a specific date and time, such as a part-time job paying a daily wage for conducting vehicle traffic volume surveys, and when the application operation is performed in step S11 of Figure 5, an employment contract is established between employer K and candidate for worker W for the job applied for. Then, in step S12, the training video providing unit 51 provides the worker terminal 2 with a training video including the content necessary for the part-time job of the traffic volume survey.

[0037] After the training video provided to the worker terminal 2 is viewed by the candidate for worker W, in step S13, the candidate for worker W performs an operation to end viewing of the training video, and in step S14, the viewing end information acquisition unit 52 acquires a trigger for the viewing end operation as viewing end information from the worker terminal 2.

[0038] In step S15, if the second condition (watching the training video before work, passing the test based on the training video, etc.) which includes at least obtaining a trigger to end viewing is met, in step S16, the work control unit 53 generates a work schedule indicating that the candidate worker W is now available to work part-time in traffic volume surveys, and provides it to each of the employer terminal 3 and the worker terminal 2.

[0039] According to the operation of the server 1 in this way, a candidate worker W who has applied for a job is made to watch a training video related to the job, and once he / she has met certain conditions such as passing a test, the schedule for the job that the candidate worker W has applied for is confirmed, so that the candidate worker W can prepare for the job and start working as a worker W for the job that he / she has applied for at the specified date and time. In other words, a system can be created in which a candidate for worker W, after applying for a job, must at least watch a training video for the job before starting work.

[0040] Below, with reference to Figures 6 to 10, we will explain the operation of the information processing system in accordance with the transition of screens displayed on the worker terminal 2 by a job introduction application program (hereinafter referred to as the "job introduction app") installed on the worker terminal 2 through communication with the server 1. In this embodiment, the screen transitions are described as those of a job introduction app, but the same thing can be achieved by accessing a website made public by server 1 to members using the browser on worker terminal 2, so this can also be the operation of server 1. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a member worker's My Page of the job introduction app and a job search screen (job listing screen) transitioned from the My Page. Figure 7 shows the job search screen to which you transition when you select a desired job from the "Find a Job" screen (job listing screen), and the pre-confirmation screen to which you transition when you operate the apply button on the job listing screen. FIG. 8 shows the application confirmation screen to which transition is made when the application button on the preliminary confirmation screen is pressed, and the application completion screen to which transition is made when the final application button on the application confirmation screen is pressed. FIG. 9 shows a home screen on which a tentative work schedule is displayed based on the application, and a work schedule details screen to which the screen transitions when the work schedule button is operated. Figure 10 shows the job training video playback screen to which the user transitions when the training video viewing button on the work schedule details screen is operated, and the job search screen to which the user transitions when the transition button to My Page is operated after watching the job training video.

[0041] When a candidate for worker W taps the job introduction app icon on the worker terminal 2 to launch the job introduction app and enters login information on the displayed login screen, the worker terminal 2 displays the candidate for worker W's My Page 70, which is the top screen after member login, as shown in Figure 6.

[0042] On the My Page 70, there are arranged a search button 70b for searching for a job, a button 70c for viewing history, a profile button 70d, an update button 70e for updating to the latest job information, and the like. In addition, My Page 70 has a column for the date and time of information update, a column for the logged-in account, a column for work schedules, a column for work requiring completion reports, and the like. If you have not applied and have no work scheduled, a message such as "No work scheduled" will be displayed in the work schedule column.

[0043] Here, when the search button 70b on the My Page 70 is tapped, a job listing screen 71 titled "Find a Job" is displayed. The job listing screen 71 has one or more job information columns 71b to 71d arranged thereon. When a candidate worker W selects the information column of the desired job from the information columns 71b to 71d of this job listing screen 71, such as information column 71d, a job details screen 72 (see Figure 7) for that information column 71d is displayed.

[0044] As shown in FIG. 7, the job details screen 72 displays detailed information about the job (basic job information (work date and time, working hours, hourly wage, transportation costs, address, nearest station, etc.), job details (job content), items to bring, workplace map, etc.), and also has an apply button 73, which, when pressed, transitions to a pre-confirmation screen 74.

[0045] The advance confirmation screen 74 has a plurality of items for consenting to the work. Each item has an explanation and a check button 75. Candidate Worker W checks the check buttons 75 for all items to indicate their agreement, and then taps the application button 76 on the screen 74 that reads "Apply." As shown in Figure 8, an application confirmation screen 77 will pop up on top of screen 74.

[0046] The application confirmation screen 77 has an application confirmation message and an application button 78 that displays "Yes, I'd like to apply." The message may be, for example, a warning such as "Cancellation is not possible after application," or a message encouraging application such as "Do you want to apply?" The candidate for worker W reads the message, and after agreeing to it, taps on the apply button 78 to move to the next screen, where an application completion screen 79 is displayed.

[0047] The application completion screen 79 has a message field indicating that the job has been confirmed, such as "The job has been decided," a field for the working conditions notice, and a link button 79a that reads "Go to my page." The working conditions notice clearly states the working dates and times, job details (job content), items to bring, contact information, and workplace information (workplace address, nearest station, telephone number, contact person, workplace map, etc.).

[0048] After understanding the contents of the message and working conditions notice, the candidate for worker W taps on the link button 79a, which displays the candidate for worker W's My Page 70 (see Figure 9) linked to the link button 79a.

[0049] My Page 70 shown in Figure 9 is almost the same screen as that shown in Figure 6, but it has link buttons 80a and 80b with warning messages, and since the job application has already been completed at this point, the work schedule column 80c displays (inserts) the details of the new work schedule (1 in total) (work date and time, nearest station, total remuneration, etc.).

[0050] Here, when the candidate for worker W taps on the work schedule portion of the work schedule column 80c, the screen transitions to the next screen, and a work schedule details screen 81 is displayed. The work schedule details screen 81 has a "Message" button 81a, a "Watch the work training video" link button 81b, and fields for work date and time, belongings, contact information, workplace information (workplace address, nearest station, telephone number, contact person, workplace map, etc.), job details, photo, and a brief description of the working conditions notice, as well as a "Go to my page" link button 81c.

[0051] Here, the candidate for worker W checks the details of the work schedule and taps the "Watch training video" link button 81b, whereupon a video viewing screen 82 (see Figure 10(A)) is displayed that displays "Job training video" linked to the "Watch job training video" link button 81b.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 10(A), a video viewing screen 82 has a video playback field 82a and a link button 82b labeled "Go to My Page" arranged thereon. In the video playback field 82a, playback of the training video automatically starts at the same time as the screen transition, so the candidate for worker W can watch the training video in the video playback field 82a as is. The video viewing screen 82 displays only the work that requires advance video training according to the content of the scheduled work.

[0053] When the training video in the video playback field 82a has finished playing, a message indicating the end of the training is displayed. When a candidate for worker W sees this message and taps on the link button 82b for "Go to My Page," My Page 70 shown in FIG. 9 is displayed. Here, when a candidate for worker W taps the "Find a job" button 70b, a job listing screen 71 titled "Find a job" is displayed, as shown in Fig. 10(b). The job listing screen 71 has one or more job information columns 71A to 71d arranged thereon. Among the information columns 71A to 71d of this job listing screen 71, the information column 71d for jobs that have already been confirmed displays a "Hired" mark 83, so that a candidate for worker W can see at a glance the mark 83 and confirm that he or she has been hired as worker W for that job.

[0054] Next, the screens (company screens) on the employer K side will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an employer's My Page (company screen). FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a training video list screen to which transition occurs when the training video link button on the My Page (company screen) in FIG. 11 is operated. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a screen displaying the uploaded training video. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a detailed screen of the training video. FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a list screen of workers who are applying for a job opening from an employer. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a list screen of workers who have viewed the training video. FIG. 17 is a diagram showing the training video viewing history screen.

[0055] The server 1 provides each employer terminal 3 of employer K with a My Page 91 as shown in FIG. My Page 91 has link icons for company information, store and branch information, training videos, etc., and a message field. On this My Page 91, when employer K taps on the training video link icon 92, a training video list screen 93 shown in FIG. 12 is displayed.

[0056] The training video list screen 93 has columns for attribute information (a video code column, a title column, a status column, an operation column, etc.) for each of the one or more training videos uploaded to the server 1.

[0057] In this example, one training video is uploaded to and managed on the server 1. On the training video list screen 93, for example, a training video with a video code "D0004" and a title "20211025_Traffic volume survey part-time job explanation video.mp4" is registered and managed. The status is "Used," and the setting is that the training video will be used when a job application is made. If the training video is not required depending on the type of job, this setting can be changed to "Not Required." In the operation column, a link button 95 to a list of jobs (see FIG. 14) and a link button 96 to a list of workers who have already viewed the job (see FIG. 16) are provided.

[0058] When employer K taps on the title 94 of a training video on this training video list screen 93, the screen transitions to the video playback screen 97 shown in Figure 13, and the training video with that title uploaded to server 1 is played, so that employer K can check the playback status of the training video uploaded to server 1 (whether the image and volume are appropriate) from the perspective of worker W on the employer terminal 3.

[0059] Furthermore, when the link button 95 to the job list in FIG. 12 is tapped, a job list screen 100 (see FIG. 14) is displayed. Detailed job information is displayed on the job list screen 100. The job list screen 100 displays information in various fields, such as an operation column, a store / branch information column, a progress status column, a recruitment information column, and a job content column, and the job offer (recruitment) content (settings) can be changed.

[0060] The progress column displays the progress of the job posting on the job introduction member site (web page) in a bar graph. The bar graph displays bars in order of status, such as "Waiting to be posted," "Recruiting," "Confirmed," "Working," and "Completed." In this example, the "Recruiting" bar in the bar graph is colored a different color (orange, for example) from the other bars, so you can see at a glance that the job posting progress is "Recruiting."

[0061] The job list screen 100 is provided with a link button 101 for applied workers and a link button 102 for viewed workers. For example, when the link button 101 for applied workers is tapped, the progress status column, recruitment information column, and job content column on the job list screen 100 are switched to an applied worker list 110, as shown in FIG.

[0062] The list of applied workers 110 displays information about each worker who has applied for a job, such as application status: currently recruiting, viewing status: "viewed" 111, usage: ○× Hanako, gender: female, date of birth: 1993-05-10, address: Minato-ku, Tokyo, job information (job CD (code), work date and time, total remuneration, store name), etc. In addition, although not shown, the list of applied workers 110 also displays whether or not the worker took a test after viewing the training video, the test result score, whether or not the worker passed the test, etc.

[0063] This allows Employer K to check the status of each of the currently applying Workers W. In each worker's column, the viewing status of the training video is displayed as "viewed" 111 or "not viewed" 112, etc., so Employer K can see at a glance whether or not the worker W who applied has received training.

[0064] In addition, when the link button 102 of the viewed worker shown in Figure 14 is tapped, the progress status column, recruitment information column, and job content column on the job list screen 100 are switched to a worker list 120 as shown in Figure 16.

[0065] The worker list 120 displays personal information (such as name, ID, account, gender, date of birth, address, etc.) of the workers who have viewed the training video. In addition, the authentication level (whether or not the worker has been authenticated), the last login date (the date and time when the worker last logged in to their personal page), a link button 121 for the training video viewing history, etc. are also displayed. Then, when the training video viewing history link button 121 is tapped, a screen 130 of the worker's individual training video viewing history is displayed, as shown in FIG.

[0066] The screen 130 for worker W's personal training video viewing history displays the video code, title, and viewing date and time (2021-10-26 17:21:59 to 2021-10-26 17:36:07, etc.) of the training videos that worker W has viewed so far. This allows Employer K to know what kind of training Worker W has received up to now. It also allows Employer K to know whether Worker W has watched the video beforehand. Specifically, it allows Employer K to know what time Worker W watched the video from what time. By Employer K being able to view Worker W's viewing history of individual training videos or including a condition in the job posting that "Worker W has viewed training videos," Employer K will be able to reduce the amount of time spent teaching on-site, as Worker W will already have the minimum knowledge and working methods (how to do the job) at the Employment Office. Note that there is no link to the screen showing details of Worker W from the training video viewing history screen 130, and it is not possible to check details such as personal information of Worker W. Therefore, a person who only has permission to view the viewing history can only view the viewing history.

[0067] As described above, according to the information processing system of this embodiment, in a job introduction app through which employer K applies for worker W, or in a job introduction site made available to members by server 1, after a candidate worker W applies for a desired job from a worker terminal 2 such as a smartphone or personal computer, he or she is required to at least watch a job training video before taking up the job, thereby enabling the candidate worker W to prepare for work before being employed as worker W.

[0068] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Furthermore, the effects described in the present embodiments are merely a list of the most preferable effects resulting from the present invention, and the effects of the present invention are not limited to those described in the present embodiments.

[0069] For example, in the above embodiment, employer K is a company that is recruiting people to do work (employee worker W), and worker W is a part-time or casual worker, but employees may also be full-time employees and are not limited to this embodiment. In addition, in the above-described embodiment, a training video was used as an example of content, but this is not limited to this, and the content may be, for example, a still image or animation, or a combination of these images with an audio message or text. In the above-described embodiment, an example was described in which a predetermined method for detecting the degree to which a candidate worker W has understood the content of a training video is to conduct a test in which questions are taken from the training video after the training video has been viewed, but the predetermined method may be any other method, and any method that detects the degree to which the content has been understood will suffice.

[0070] For example, in the above-described embodiment, a training video containing the content necessary for working a daily paid part-time job such as vehicle traffic volume surveys was provided to the worker terminal 2 more than 48 hours before the specified date and time, on the condition that an application operation was made that at least included the establishment of an employment contract between employer K and the candidate worker W. However, other conditions may also be met, and it is sufficient to provide content containing the content necessary for working the specified work to the candidate employee's terminal at a specified time before the specified date and time when the first condition is met that at least includes the establishment of an employment contract between employer K and the candidate employee for the specified work that will begin on the specified date and time.

[0071] In the above embodiment, the trigger for operating the link button "Go to My Page", which indicates that the candidate worker W has finished watching the training video, was obtained from the worker terminal 2, but it can also be something other than this, and it is sufficient to obtain viewing end information, which indicates that the candidate employee has finished watching the content, from the candidate employee's terminal. In the above-described embodiment, the notification control unit 56 provided the worker terminal 2 with an alert encouraging the worker to watch the training video when the third condition, that is, 48 ​​hours have passed since the button 81a for watching the training video before work (second condition) was displayed on the worker terminal 2 and the trigger to end viewing has not yet been acquired, is met. However, other conditions may also be met, and it is sufficient to determine whether a specific third condition has been met after presenting the second condition, and if the viewing end information has not yet been acquired when the third condition is met, to provide the potential employee's terminal with an alert encouraging the worker to watch the content.

[0072] In the above embodiment, when the second condition is met, which includes at least obtaining a trigger for operating the link button "Go to My Page" (the condition is that the accuracy rate of the job comprehension test conducted after watching the training video is above a certain value and the worker W passes), a work schedule indicating that the worker W is available to engage in traffic volume survey work is generated and provided to each of the employer terminal 3 and the worker terminal 2, but other conditions may also be used; when the second condition is met, which includes at least obtaining viewing completion information, it is sufficient to generate work availability information indicating that the potential employee is available to engage in specified work and provide it to each of the employer K's terminal and the potential employee's terminal.

[0073] The above-described series of processes can be executed by hardware or software. In other words, the functional configuration in Fig. 4 is merely an example and is not particularly limited. That is, it is sufficient for the server 1 to have the functionality to execute the above-described series of processes as a whole, and the functional blocks and databases used to realize this functionality are not particularly limited to the example in Fig. 4. Furthermore, one functional block and database may be configured as a single piece of hardware, a single piece of software, or a combination thereof.

[0074] When a series of processes is executed by software, the programs that make up the software are installed into a computer or the like from a network or a recording medium. The computer may be a computer built into dedicated hardware, or may be a computer capable of executing various functions by installing various programs, such as a general-purpose personal computer.

[0075] The recording medium containing such a program may be constituted by the removable medium 31 in FIG. 3 that is distributed separately from the device main body in order to provide the program to the user, or may be constituted by a recording medium provided to the user in a state where it is pre-installed in the device main body. The removable medium 31 may be constituted, for example, by a magnetic disk (including a floppy disk), an optical disk, or a magneto-optical disk. The optical disk may be constituted, for example, by a CD-ROM (Compact Disc-Read Only Memory) or a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc). The magneto-optical disk may be constituted, for example, by an MD (Mini-Disc). Furthermore, the recording medium provided to the user in a state where it is pre-installed in the device main body may be constituted, for example, by the ROM 12 in FIG. 3 on which the program is recorded, or a hard disk included in the storage unit 18.

[0076] In this specification, the steps of describing a program to be recorded on a recording medium include not only processes that are performed chronologically in accordance with the order, but also processes that are not necessarily performed chronologically but are performed in parallel or individually. In addition, in this specification, the term "system" refers to an overall device that is made up of a plurality of devices, a plurality of means, etc.

[0077] In other words, the information processing system to which the present invention is applied is sufficient as long as it has the following configuration, and can take on a variety of different embodiments.

[0078] That is, an information processing device to which the present invention is applied (for example, the server 1 in FIG. 4) content providing means (e.g., training video providing unit 51 in FIG. 4 ) for providing content (e.g., training video providing unit 51 in FIG. 4 ) including the content necessary for engaging in the prescribed work (e.g., daily wage part-time work such as vehicle traffic volume surveys) starting from a prescribed date and time to the terminal (e.g., worker terminal 2) of the employee candidate (e.g., worker W candidate) at a prescribed timing (e.g., 48 hours before) before the prescribed date and time when a first condition (e.g., application operation) including at least that an employment contract has been established between employer K and employee candidate (e.g., worker W candidate) is satisfied; a viewing end information acquisition means (such as the viewing end information acquisition unit 52 in FIG. 4) that acquires viewing end information (such as operation of the link button 82b of "Go to My Page" in FIG. 10(A)) indicating that the employee candidate (such as a candidate for worker W) has finished viewing the content (such as a training video), from the employee candidate's terminal (such as the worker terminal 2); a work availability information providing means (such as the work control unit 53 in FIG. 4) that generates work availability information (such as work schedule) indicating that the employee candidate (such as a candidate for worker W) is able to engage in the predetermined work (such as traffic volume survey) when a second condition (such as passing a test with a certain accuracy rate after watching the training video) that includes at least the acquisition of the viewing completion information (such as a trigger for operating the link button 82b of "Go to My Page" in FIG. 10(A)) is met, and provides the information to the terminal of the employer K (such as the employer terminal 3) and the terminal of the employee candidate (such as the worker terminal 2); Equipped with. In this way, when the first condition for the scheduled work (such as application operations) is met, content (such as training videos) containing the details necessary for performing the scheduled work (such as traffic volume surveys) is provided to the employee candidate's terminal (such as worker terminal 2) at a predetermined timing (for example, 48 hours in advance) before the specified date and time. This allows the employee candidate (such as a potential worker W) to watch the content (such as training videos) and experience the work involved in the scheduled work (such as traffic volume surveys) through their movements, giving them a good understanding of what they will be doing and allowing them to approach the job with confidence. Furthermore, because employees come to the site with an understanding of the work content in advance, they are able to learn the work quickly and become a valuable asset at an early stage. Furthermore, when a trigger indicating that a candidate employee (candidate for worker W, etc.) has finished watching content (for example, a training video, etc.) (such as operating the "Go to My Page" link button 82b in Figure 10(A)) is obtained from the candidate employee's terminal (for example, worker terminal 2, etc.), only when a second condition (such as passing a job comprehension test with a certain accuracy rate or higher after watching the training video, etc.) that at least includes the acquisition of the trigger is met, work availability information (work schedule, etc.) indicating that the candidate employee (candidate for worker W) is now able to engage in scheduled work (traffic volume surveys, etc.) as an employee (worker W) is provided to both employer K's terminal (for example, employer terminal 3, etc.) and the candidate employee's terminal (for example, worker terminal 2, etc.). As a result, only those who have actually acquired the knowledge of the job will see the work schedule and come to the site, and they can be used as a valuable asset at an early stage in the field. In other words, a potential employee (such as a potential Worker W) who applies for a job can be prepared for work (job, etc.) before being employed as an employee (such as Worker W).

[0079] The information processing device (e.g., server 1 in FIG. 4) The content management system further includes a viewing time limit setting unit (e.g., the viewing time limit setting unit 54 in FIG. 4) that sets a viewing time limit for the content (e.g., a training video) designated by an operation of the employer K on the terminal (e.g., the employer terminal 3), The second condition (e.g., watching a training video before work) includes at least the condition that the viewing completion information (e.g., a trigger for operating the "Go to My Page" link button 82b in Figure 10(A)) is obtained by the deadline (48 hours before work starts). In this way, by setting the second condition to be that viewing completion information (such as a trigger for operating the "Go to My Page" link button 82b in Figure 10(A)) is obtained by a specified deadline (such as 48 hours before the start of work), potential employees (such as potential Worker W) will be sure to view the content (such as a training video), since those who do not view the content (such as a training video) will not have their work schedule confirmed.

[0080] The information processing device (for example, the server 1 in FIG. 4) a viewing history acquisition unit (e.g., the viewing history management unit 55 in FIG. 4 ) for acquiring viewing history information indicating the viewing history of the content (e.g., training videos) by the employee candidate and providing the information to the terminal (e.g., the employer terminal 3) of the employer K; Further provided are: In this way, by acquiring viewing history information of content (such as training videos) by the employee candidate and providing it to employer K's terminal (such as employer terminal 3), employer K can also know in advance from the viewing history information of the employee candidate what work skills the employee candidate has acquired in the past, and can allow the employee candidate to work with peace of mind as an employee.

[0081] The information processing device (for example, the server 1 in FIG. 4) a notification control means (such as the notification control unit 56 in FIG. 4 ) that determines whether a predetermined third condition (such as the passage of 48 hours) is met after the second condition (such as the viewing of a training video before work) is presented, and if the viewing end information (such as a trigger for operating the link button 82b of "Go to My Page" in FIG. 10(A)) has not yet been acquired at the time the third condition is met (when 48 hours have passed), provides an alert (such as a notification email or a screen alert) to the terminal (such as the worker terminal 2) of the employee candidate (such as a candidate for worker W) to encourage viewing of the content (such as the training video); Further provided are: In this way, if viewing end information (such as a trigger for operating the "Go to My Page" link button 82b in Figure 10(A)) has not yet been acquired when a specified third condition (such as 48 hours has passed) is met after presenting the second condition, an alert (such as a notification email or screen alert) urging the candidate employee (candidate for worker W) to view the content (such as a training video) can be output to the candidate employee's (candidate for worker W's) terminal (such as worker terminal 2), thereby preventing the candidate employee from forgetting to view the content and missing work appointments.

[0082] The information processing device (for example, the server 1 in FIG. 4) a content comprehension detection means (e.g., test unit 57 in FIG. 4 ) for detecting the degree to which the employee candidate (e.g., a candidate for worker W) has understood the content (e.g., a training video) by a predetermined method (e.g., conducting a test using questions from the training video); Furthermore, The second condition further includes a condition that the degree of understanding of the job (such as the rate of correct answers on a test) after watching a training video before the job is above a certain level (for example, 70% or above). In this way, by checking the level of understanding of the work after viewing the content (e.g., training video, etc.), it is possible to eliminate those who simply play the content (e.g., training video, etc.) but do not view it. In other words, only potential employees (e.g., potential Worker W) who have viewed the content (e.g., training video, etc.) and understood the work can confirm their work schedule and engage in work as an employee (e.g., Worker W). Furthermore, Employer K can hire motivated and positive employees (e.g., Worker W, etc.).

[0083] The information processing device (for example, the server 1 in FIG. 4) a retention control means (such as the retention control unit 58 in FIG. 4 ) for retaining, for a predetermined period (such as two years), the fact that the second condition (such as watching a training video before work and passing a test) has been satisfied once for the employee candidate (candidate for worker W) who has viewed the content (such as a training video); Furthermore, If the content (e.g., a training video, etc.) contains content necessary for engaging in another scheduled work (e.g., a people traffic survey, etc.) (of the same type as the previous work) that will begin within the specified period, the work availability information providing means (e.g., the work control unit 53 in Figure 4, etc.) will further generate work availability information (confirmed new work schedule, etc.) indicating that the employee candidate (e.g., a candidate for worker W, etc.) is now able to engage in the other scheduled work (e.g., a people traffic survey, etc.) without imposing any new conditions, when the storage means (e.g., the storage control unit 58 in Figure 4, etc.) stores that the second condition (e.g., watching a training video before work and passing a test, etc.) is satisfied. When a potential employee (such as a potential Worker W) applies for a different scheduled job (such as a people traffic survey) of the same type as the job they have previously performed (such as a vehicle traffic survey), if the second condition (such as watching a training video and passing a test before starting work) is met, work availability information (such as a confirmed new work schedule) indicating that the potential employee (such as a potential Worker W) is now available to perform the different scheduled job (such as a people traffic survey) can be generated without imposing any new conditions, allowing the potential employee (such as a potential Worker W) to perform the different job without having to watch a training video with similar content. As a result, the hassle for the potential employee (such as a potential Worker W) in the process from application to engagement (confirming the work schedule) can be reduced.
