[Figure 5] FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing an outline of a health hazard risk presentation system according to a second embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0011] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In this specification, the term "process" is not limited to an independent process, and therefore, even if a process cannot be clearly distinguished from other processes, the term "process" includes the process as long as the function of the process is achieved. The same applies to the term "step." Furthermore, in the contents shown in the drawings, the scale, shape, and length may be exaggerated for clarity.

[0012] The health hazard risk determined in one embodiment of the present invention is, for example, the risk of a health hazard occurring in an employee whose occurrence could directly lead to a serious accident, or in one embodiment, the risk of a health hazard that interferes with vehicle driving. In this case, one embodiment of the present invention is particularly suitable for employers who employ employees who drive vehicles, such as those in the transportation industry.

[0013] [Embodiment 1] <Health hazard risk presentation system> Overview The health hazard risk presentation system according to this embodiment (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as "this system"; the same applies hereinafter to other embodiments, etc.) a storage unit that stores employee health checkup information; A determination unit that determines the employee's health impairment risk based on a portion of the health checkup information; a presentation unit that presents a mark according to the determination when displaying the employee information; This makes it easy to understand the health hazard risks of employees.

[0014] 1 is a diagram showing an outline of the present system. In the diagram, the outline of the present system is represented by functional blocks. The present system 101 includes, for example, a storage unit 11, a control unit (discrimination unit) 12, and a presentation unit 13.

[0015] Each unit may be configured as one terminal or may be configured across multiple terminals. For example, in this system 101, access to the presentation unit 13 is restricted for the purpose of managing personal information, and the presentation unit 13 is configured as a terminal separate from the terminal including the storage unit 11 and the control unit (determination unit) 12. This type of terminal can be realized using various hardware resources such as a PC (personal computer), a smartphone, a tablet, etc.

[0016] ≪Storage section≫ The storage unit 11 is configured using, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory) or a RAM (Random Access Memory), and is capable of storing various programs executed by each unit in the system 101. The storage unit 11 may also be used as a working memory during the execution of various processes by the system 101.

[0017] (Health checkup information) The storage unit 11 stores employee health checkup information iH. The health checkup information iH includes, for example, 11 items specified in the Industrial Safety and Health Regulations: (1) Medical history and work history investigation (2) Examination of subjective and objective symptoms (3) Height, weight, waist circumference, vision, and hearing tests (4) Chest X-ray and sputum examination (5) Blood pressure measurement (6) Anemia test (hemoglobin level and red blood cell count) (7) Liver function tests (GOT, GliT, and γ-GTli) (8) Blood lipid test (LDL, HDL, and triglycerides) (9) Blood glucose test (10) Urine test (test for sugar and protein in urine) (11) Electrocardiogram It includes at least some of the items related to the above and their results.

[0018] There is no limitation on the means for storing the medical checkup information iH in the storage unit 11. The medical checkup information iH is provided by the medical institution or the like in paper format or digital format, and if provided in paper format, the information can be stored in the storage unit 11 by directly inputting it into the system or using known character recognition technology, or if provided in digital format, by using the digital data.

[0019] Only a portion of the health checkup information iH is used to determine the risk of health problems. In this regard, in order to save the time and effort of pre-sorting the information to be stored, the present system 101 employs a method in which the health checkup information iH is stored as is and then the portion required for determination is read out from it, which is a preferred embodiment.

[0020] At least a portion of such health checkup information iH is stored in the memory unit 11. Of the health checkup information stored in the memory unit 11, a further portion necessary for determining the risk of health problems is read out by the determination unit 12.

[0021] 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of health checkup information iH used to determine health impairment risk. Here, health checkup information iH includes, for example, test item 1, numerical result 2, which is the result of test item 1 and is expressed as a numerical value, judgment item 3, and category result 4, which is the result of judgment item 3 and is expressed as a graded category. Health checkup information iH may also include reference range 5 for test item 1 and the last date of the most recent health checkup 6 (May 1, 2025 in the figure).

[0022] In the figure, for example, Test item 1 shows "maximum blood pressure" and "minimum blood pressure", The numerical results 2 were "106mmHg" and "68mmHg", "Blood pressure" is shown as a judgment item 3 that includes multiple items, and The classification result 4 is shown as classification "A (no abnormalities)". (The "blood pressure" assessment item here includes at least one of the test items "systolic blood pressure" and "diastolic blood pressure.")

[0023] Also in the figure, for example, Test item 1 shows "fasting blood glucose level," "random blood glucose level," and "HbA1c." The fasting blood glucose value result 2 is "79 mg / dl", "Glucose metabolism" is shown as assessment item 3, which includes multiple items, and The classification result 4 is shown as classification "A (no abnormalities)". (The assessment items for "glucose metabolism" here include at least one test item of "fasting blood glucose level," "random blood glucose," and "HbA1c.")

[0024] Also in the figure, for example, "Electrocardiogram" is listed as assessment item 3, which includes the item of resting electrocardiogram, and The classification result 4 is shown as classification "A (no abnormalities)".

[0025] Also, in the figure, for the assessment item of "carbohydrate metabolism," no numerical result 2 is obtained for "casual blood glucose" and "HbA1c." Similarly, for the assessment item of "electrocardiogram," a finding of "normal range" is obtained, but no numerical result is obtained. In this regard, the diagnostic content will naturally vary depending on the type of health check and age, and the format and appearance of the health check information iH provided by the medical institution may also differ. These are acceptable, and when implementing this system 101, it is not necessarily necessary to obtain results in the form of numerical results or category results for all items.

[0026] Although not shown, for example, The test items shown are "BMI," "body fat percentage," and "waist circumference." The numerical results for BMI and waist circumference were 21.0 kg / m 2 " or "76.0cm" is displayed, "Physical measurements" is shown as a judgment item that includes multiple items, and As a result of the classification, a classification "A (no abnormality)" can be displayed. (The assessment items of "body measurement" here include at least one of the test items of "BMI," "body fat percentage," and "waist circumference," and particularly include the test item of "BMI.")

[0027] Although not shown, for example, The test items shown are "total cholesterol," "HDL cholesterol," "neutral fat," and "LDL cholesterol." The numerical results were "160mg / dl," "50mg / dl," "80mg / dl," and "100mg / dl." "Lipids" is shown as a judgment item that includes multiple items, and As a result of the classification, a classification "A (no abnormality)" can be displayed. (The "lipid" assessment item here includes at least one test item of "total cholesterol," "HDL cholesterol," "triglycerides," and "LDL cholesterol," and particularly includes at least one, preferably two, and more preferably three test items of "HDL cholesterol," "triglycerides," and "LDL cholesterol.")

[0028] (Test items and their numerical results) The storage unit 11 preferably includes at least a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 from the health checkup information iH. This makes it easy to understand the employee's health impairment risk based on a comparison with a predetermined reference range 5. In one embodiment, the storage unit 11 can store at least one of a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to BMI, a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to blood pressure, a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to blood glucose level, a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to triglycerides, a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to HDL cholesterol, and a test item 1 and its numerical result 2 related to LDL cholesterol. This makes it easy to understand health impairment risks that should be particularly predicted.

[0029] The reference range 5 to be compared with the numerical result may refer to a known range, and may be, for example, The standard range for "BMI" is 18.5 to 24.9 kg / m 2 is within the range of The standard range for "systolic blood pressure" is 129 mmHg or less. The standard range for "diastolic blood pressure" is 84mmHg or less. The standard range for "fasting blood glucose level" is 99 mg / dl or less. The reference range for "casual blood glucose" is within the range of 70 to 139 mg / dl. The standard range for "HbA1c" is 5.5% or less. The standard range for triglycerides is 30 to 149 mg / dl. The reference range for HDL cholesterol is 40 mg / dl or greater, and The normal range for LDL cholesterol is between 60 and 119 mg / dl.

[0030] Various reference ranges may be stored in the storage unit 11. By storing the reference ranges in the storage unit 11, the determination unit 12 can read them out from the storage unit 11.

[0031] (Judgment items that give classification results) The storage unit 11 preferably includes at least the assessment items 3 and their classification results 4 from the health checkup information iH. This makes it easy to understand the employee's level of health impairment risk based on the results expressed in graded classifications. In one embodiment, the storage unit 11 can store at least one of the assessment items 3 related to physical measurements and their classification results 4, the assessment items 3 related to blood pressure and their classification results 4, the assessment items 3 related to lipids and their classification results 4, the assessment items 3 related to glucose metabolism and their classification results 4, and the assessment items 3 related to electrocardiograms and their classification results 4. This makes it easy to understand health impairment risks that should be particularly predicted.

[0032] The classification results expressed in stages for the evaluation items may refer to known classifications, and for reference purposes only, examples are as follows: A: No abnormalities B: Mild abnormalities C: Re-examination required D1: Treatment required D2: Detailed examination required E: Under treatment

[0033] (Other items) If there is a judgment item in the health checkup information iH that gives a classification result corresponding to the category "E (under treatment)", the storage unit 11 may store such judgment item. This is not limited to the judgment items of "physical measurement", "blood pressure", "lipids", "glucose metabolism", and "electrocardiogram" described above.

[0034] ≪Judgment section≫ The determination unit 12 is configured using, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or the like, and is capable of controlling the entire system 101 by executing a program prepared in advance. In other words, the determination unit 12 also functions as a control unit of the system 101.

[0035] The discrimination unit 12 discriminates the employee's health impairment risk based on part of the health checkup information. It focuses only on specific items that are closely related to the health impairment risk and their results, and discriminates the health impairment risk based on these, so that the risk of such health impairment that may cause acute disorders (e.g., myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, subarachnoid hemorrhage, etc.) can be easily grasped.

[0036] For example, the discrimination unit 12 can determine that the employee is at high risk of health problems based on the fact that at least one of the numerical results of the test items related to BMI, blood pressure, blood glucose level, triglyceride, HDL cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol is outside the reference range. This makes it possible to grasp the employee's risk of acute disorders caused by obesity, abnormal blood pressure (high blood pressure, etc.), diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.

[0037] Furthermore, for example, the discrimination unit 12 can determine that the employee has a high risk of health problems based on the fact that the classification result of at least one of the judgment items related to physical measurements, the judgment item related to blood pressure, the judgment item related to lipids, the judgment item related to glucose metabolism, and the judgment item related to an electrocardiogram corresponds to classification D1 (treatment required) or classification D2 (detailed examination required). This makes it possible to grasp the employee's risk of acute disorders caused by obesity, abnormal blood pressure (high blood pressure, etc.), diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and arrhythmia.

[0038] Furthermore, for example, the discrimination unit 12 can determine that the risk of health problems is high based on the presence of a judgment item in the health checkup information iH that gives a classification result corresponding to classification E (under treatment). Even if a worker is under treatment, there are cases where the worker's health condition is still unstable, and according to this embodiment, it is possible to determine that the worker is in such a situation.

[0039] Furthermore, for example, the discrimination unit 12 can determine that the risk of health problems is high based on the number of days that have passed since the last medical checkup exceeds a predetermined reference number of days. If an employee has not had a medical checkup for a long period of time, it is difficult to grasp their current health condition, and indifference to medical checkups may itself be a factor that increases the risk of health problems. According to this embodiment, it is possible to determine whether an employee is in a situation that puts them at risk. The predetermined reference number of days is, for example, 365 days (one year), but is not limited to this.

[0040] Information relating to health hazard risk determined by the determination unit 12 is transmitted to the presentation unit 13. As described above, in this system 101, for the purpose of managing personal information, only the business manager is allowed to access the presentation unit 13. From the perspective of the business manager, it is easy to easily grasp the health hazard risk of employees while understanding and managing employee information on a daily basis.

[0041] ≪Presentation section≫ When displaying the employee information, the display unit 13 also displays a mark according to the above determination. This makes it easier to identify at a glance which employees are at risk of health problems, and ultimately makes it easier to understand the health problems risks of each employee.

[0042] The presentation unit 13 can be configured to include, for example, a known display device. As described above, the presentation unit 13 may be configured as a terminal separate from the storage unit 11 and the determination unit 12, and for example, a manager's smartphone may perform this function. This allows the manager to more easily grasp the health hazard risks of employees on the smartphone.

[0043] On the other hand, there are various modes of presentation, including not only visual presentation (marks, colors, lamp displays, etc.), but also auditory presentation (issuance of announcements or warning sounds, etc.), simple action presentation (popping out or rotating a simple bar or tag, etc.), and even digital notification (notification via app or email). These presentations may be combined as appropriate. Therefore, the presentation unit 13 can be configured by using various known devices, including a device for generating warning sounds, alone or in appropriate combination according to the mode of presentation.

[0044] Here, the presentation unit 13 can present different types of marks depending on the basis of the above-mentioned determination, which makes it easier to easily grasp the details of the health hazard risk. Specifically, the presentation unit 13, for example, Marks related to the test items and / or assessment items that served as the basis for the determination (e.g., test item names, assessment item names, names or abbreviations of acute disorders that may be caused, etc.): Signs to encourage people to undergo health checkups (for example, information such as the period during which they have not undergone a health checkup or a message saying "Please undergo a health checkup"): and A mark to indicate that the target endpoint is currently being treated (e.g., the word "currently being treated," the endpoint name, or the name or abbreviation of the acute disorder that may be caused): For these marks, one mark may also serve as another mark.

[0045] 3 is a diagram showing an example of a mark according to the basis for the above-mentioned determination. As shown in the figure, the presentation unit 13 displays a list of employee information in a format organized by employees W1 to W5.

[0046] Now, let us assume that employee W1 is prone to high blood pressure, and therefore the numerical results of the blood pressure test items are determined to be outside the reference range. In this case, the presentation unit 13 displays the employee information by adding a yellow mark 13a with the characters "high blood pressure."

[0047] Furthermore, it is assumed that employee W2 has arrhythmia, and therefore the classification result of the determination item related to the electrocardiogram is determined to correspond to classification D1. In this case, the presentation unit 13 displays the employee information by adding a yellow mark 13a having the characters "arrhythmia."

[0048] Furthermore, suppose that employee W3 has not had a medical checkup for one year and six months, and therefore it is determined that the period since the last medical checkup exceeds a predetermined reference number of days (for example, one year). In this case, the presentation unit 13 displays a blue mark 13b with the characters "one year and six months," which is the period without a medical checkup, attached to the employee information.

[0049] Furthermore, suppose that employee W5 has undergone a brain scan in addition to a regular health checkup and is currently undergoing treatment for a cerebrovascular disease (e.g., cerebral infarction) that he or she had in the past, and therefore the classification result for the assessment item related to cerebrovascular disease is determined to correspond to being under treatment. In this case, the presentation unit 13 displays a white mark 13c with the text "Under treatment: cerebrovascular disease" next to the employee information.

[0050] No health hazard risk was determined for another employee W4. Therefore, in the figure, no presentation is made by the presentation unit 13. On the other hand, the presentation unit 13 may display a mark indicating "no health hazard risk" on the employee information for employee W4.

[0051] Although not shown, it is assumed that the numerical results of the BMI test items for an obese employee are determined to be outside the standard range. In this case, the presentation unit 13 can display the employee information by adding a yellow mark 13a with the word "obesity."

[0052] Although not shown, it is assumed that the numerical results of at least one, preferably two, and more preferably three of the test items of triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol of an employee with a tendency toward high lipids are determined to be outside the standard range. In this case, the presentation unit 13 can display the employee information by adding a yellow mark 13a with the characters "high lipids."

[0053] <How to present health risk> The method for presenting health hazard risks according to this embodiment (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as "this method"; the same applies hereinafter to other embodiments, etc.) determining a health impairment risk of an employee based on a portion of the employee's health examination information; a step of displaying a mark according to the determination when displaying the employee information; The method may further include storing employee medical examination information.

[0054] FIG. 4 is a flow diagram showing an example of the flow of this method. In step S1, at least a part of the medical checkup information iH provided by the medical institution is stored (storage step). Step S1 may be performed only when there is new addition or update of the medical checkup information.

[0055] In step S2, a portion of the stored health checkup information is read out, and the employee's health impairment risk is determined based on this (determination step). For details of this step, please refer to the above explanation of the system 101. Since the system focuses only on specific items that are closely related to the health impairment risk and their results, and determines the health impairment risk based on these, the health impairment risk can be easily grasped.

[0056] In step S3, the employee information is displayed and a mark corresponding to the above determination is presented (presentation step). The above explanation of the system 101 can also be referred to for the content of this step.

[0057] One aspect of the present invention has been described above. According to this aspect of the present invention, it is possible to easily grasp the risk of health problems. The technical concept of the present invention can be widely applied to various aspects (systems, methods, business models, etc.) of managing the health of employees whose health problems could directly lead to serious accidents.

[0058] One aspect of the present invention is simpler than conventional approaches, such as comprehensive health management methods or methods requiring robotic devices, and therefore can address needs that cannot be met by such conventional approaches. The benefits of this aspect of the present invention are particularly significant for small and medium-sized enterprises and sole proprietors who are managing limited management resources to fulfill their employee health management responsibilities. However, this aspect of the present invention can also be implemented by various corporations, associations, organizations, and groups, including large corporations, that are responsible for employee health management.

[0059] One aspect of the present invention is simple, including the logic for deriving health hazard risk, making it easy to understand the causal relationship between the derived health hazard risk and health checkup information. Therefore, from the user's perspective, it is easy to understand the derived health hazard risk and to draw up specific strategies for reducing health hazard risk. This aspect of the invention has the potential to increase employees' motivation to improve their health management and avoid neglecting poor health, and even contribute to society by further increasing health awareness, making it a highly innovative approach.

[0060] [Other embodiments] One aspect of the present invention is not limited to the above-described first embodiment, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the technical idea of ​​the present invention as defined in the claims.

[0061] For example, in the above-described first embodiment, each unit of the present system is realized using hardware resources, and the presentation unit is configured as a separate terminal. However, the configuration example of the present system is not limited to this, and for example, at least a part of the system may be cloud-based.

[0062] Furthermore, for example, in the above-described first embodiment, the risk of developing a health problem that interferes with driving a vehicle has been assumed as an example of a health problem risk. However, examples of health problem risks determined in one aspect of the present invention are not limited to this, and the present invention is widely applicable to any health problem risk that affects employees engaged in work in which the occurrence of a health problem could directly lead to a serious accident. In this regard, industries suitable for one aspect of the present invention are diverse, including not only the transportation industry but also the construction industry, forestry and logging work, fishing and seafood processing, electrical and equipment installation work, mining, demolition work, cleaning and sewerage work, etc.

[0063] For example, in the first embodiment, the health checkup information is stored as a whole and then the part necessary for the determination is read out from it. However, the configuration example of the present system is not limited to this, and the information necessary for determining the health impairment risk from the health checkup information may be pre-sorted and stored in the storage unit.

[0064] Furthermore, for example, in the first embodiment, information that can be obtained through so-called periodic health checkups has been described as an example of health checkup information. However, the term "health checkup" in this specification includes not only periodic health checkups but also various health checkups such as health checkups at the time of employment, health checkups for specific occupational workers, health checkups for overseas dispatched workers, health checkups for full-time employees, and health checkups for short-term workers. The concept of "health checkup" in this specification also includes checkups for the presence or absence of specific diseases, such as cancer screenings and brain scans.

[0065] As mentioned above, the diagnostic content will naturally differ depending on the type of health checkup, age, etc., and the format and appearance of the health checkup information provided by the examination institution may also differ. These are acceptable, and when implementing this system, it is not necessary to obtain results in the form of numerical results or category results for all items.

[0066] Just to be clear, the machine gun range shown above to be compared with the numerical results is merely an example, and a range different from the range shown above may be selected based on known values. For example, the reference range for BMI is 18.5 to 24.9 kg / m 2 However, the range is not limited to this range, and from the viewpoint of capturing only excessive obesity that may cause health problems, for example, third-grade obesity (BMI 35 or more but less than 40: unit kg / m 2 ) or Grade 4 obesity (BMI 40 or more: kg / m 2 ) may be set as a reference range.

[0067] In the past, there has been a need for a system that takes into account employee health checkup attendance status, medication information, etc., and has management functions that allow for easy understanding of health hazard risks.In any of the embodiments, one aspect of the present invention makes it possible to easily and clearly understand such risks.

[0068] One aspect of the present invention can be operated as a stand-alone service, and can also be linked not only to the roll call system and alcohol concentration detection system described below, but also to employee management systems (for example, systems for managing employee arrival and departure times and working hours), making it easy to use in improving management standards.

[0069] Among the health checkup information, items that are preferably focused on are, for example, items related to obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, or diabetes, which are known as the "deadly quartet." According to one embodiment of the present invention, the employee's risk of health problems can be determined from at least one of these items. Depending on the content of the health checkup information, the possibility of SAS (Sleep Apnea Syndrome) can also be identified, and specific treatment can be recommended. One embodiment of the present invention makes it easy to know whether an employee has undergone regular health checkups, is receiving ongoing treatment, and has not discontinued treatment. Furthermore, by linking with other systems, it can also easily know whether an employee has forgotten to take their medication.

[0070] [Embodiment 2] One aspect of the present invention can be linked to a roll call system or method for employees of a user, or a system or method for detecting alcohol concentration of employees. One aspect of the present invention can also determine the risk of health problems by further using part of the employee's medication information. In the following, parts that are the same as in the first embodiment will be omitted as appropriate, and the explanation will focus on the parts that are different.

[0071] <Health hazard risk presentation system> 5 is a diagram showing an outline of the present system. In the diagram, the outline of the present system is represented by functional blocks. The present system 101A includes, for example, a memory unit 11A, a control unit (discrimination unit) 12A, and a presentation unit 13A. The present system 101A may also include an authentication unit 14, an alcohol concentration detection unit 15, and an acquisition unit 16.

[0072] The memory unit 11A stores employee information iW in addition to the medical examination information iH. Examples of employee information iW include, but are not limited to, name, identification ID, facial photograph, age, affiliation, and driver's license number. Information about employees other than that stored in the memory unit 11A is also broadly treated as employee information iW. For example, the employee information iW may further include medical history, accident and violation history, roll call status, breath alcohol concentration, etc.

[0073] In relation to this, the storage unit 11A can store the employee's medication information iM acquired by the acquisition unit 16. This enables the determination unit 12A to read this from the storage unit 11A.

[0074] The memory unit 11A may also store various drugs that require caution when working (drugs requiring caution when driving), drugs that require prohibition of work (drugs that prohibit driving), diseases that require continued medication and drugs for treating such diseases, and guidelines for when discontinuing medication is dangerous, which allows the discrimination unit 12A to read these from the memory unit 11A.

[0075] The driving caution drugs and driving prohibition drugs may be known drugs, for example: Antiallergic / antihistamine drugs (e.g., chlorpheniramine maleate, diphenhydramine hydrochloride): Anti-anxiety / anti-hypnotic drugs (e.g., etizolam, triazolam) Antihypertensive drugs (e.g., doxazosin mesylate): Eye drops (e.g., tropicamide phenylephrine hydrochloride): Antispasmodics (e.g., butylscopolamine bromide): These include (all general names).

[0076] Diseases requiring continued medication, drugs for treating such diseases, and indicators of danger when medication is discontinued may also be known, for example, Cerebrovascular disease (warfarin; the risk of stopping administration is 1-2 days) Schizophrenia (quetiapine fumarate: the risk of stopping administration is 5 to 6 days) (All of these are general names.) However, the present invention is not limited to these examples.

[0077] (Linkage with roll call system) The authentication unit 14 authenticates the employee. Specifically, the authentication unit 17 reads the employee information and refers to the employee information iW stored in the storage unit 11A. Then, the authentication result can be returned as authentication OK or an error.

[0078] The authentication unit 14 can be configured using, for example, a known face authentication device or reader device. The face authentication device can acquire a face photograph of the employee and perform face authentication. The reader device can read personal information stored in an IC chip in the employee's identification card (e.g., a driver's license or My Number card) and perform authentication.

[0079] This system 101A cooperates with a roll call system 102. The roll call system 102 here is a known system that is obligated to a user (for example, a transportation company) to support roll calls with employees (drivers).

[0080] In a cooperative configuration between the present system 101A and the roll call system 102, for example, the roll call system 102 may be provided with a control system for managing the roll call. In one aspect, according to the present system 102, when the presentation unit 13A presents the roll call status as employee information, it can also present a marker according to the assessment of the employee's health impairment risk.

[0081] (In cooperation with alcohol concentration detection systems) The alcohol concentration detection unit 15 detects the alcohol concentration in the breath. Such an alcohol concentration detection unit 15 can be configured using, for example, a known alcohol concentration detection device for detecting whether the driver is not in an intoxicated state that would prohibit driving.

[0082] This system 101A is linked to an alcohol concentration detection system 103. The alcohol concentration detection system 103 here is a known system for detecting whether an employee (driver) is not under the influence of alcohol based on the breath of the employee before driving or between driving intervals.

[0083] In a cooperative configuration between the present system 101A and the alcohol concentration detection system 103, for example, the alcohol concentration detection system 103 may be provided with a control system for detecting the alcohol concentration of an employee. In one aspect, according to the present system 102, when the presentation unit 13A presents the breath alcohol concentration of the employee as employee information, it can also present a marker according to the employee's health impairment risk assessment.

[0084] (Use in conjunction with medication information) The acquisition unit 16 acquires medication information iM of the employee. For example, the acquisition unit 16 receives information from a medical institution, a pharmacy, or an electronic medication record service company, and thereby can acquire the medication information iM. The medication information iM includes the name of the prescribed drug, and may further include the prescribed amount and the prescription date.

[0085] If the My Number Portal where the employee registers is linked to the medicine notebook app, it may be possible to obtain the employee's medication information iM by reading the personal information on the My Number card using the authentication unit 14. In this case, the authentication unit 14 can also serve as the acquisition unit 16, that is, the acquisition unit 16 can be omitted.

[0086] The discrimination unit 12A discriminates the risk of a health problem using a portion of the medical checkup information and a portion of the medication information. The discrimination unit 12A focuses only on specific details of both the medical checkup information and the medication information that are closely related to the risk of a health problem, and discriminates the risk of a health problem based on these details. This ensures ease of grasping the risk of a health problem while also enabling a multifaceted evaluation of the risk of a health problem.

[0087] For example, the determination unit 12A can determine that the employee has a high risk of health problems based on whether the medication information includes a prescription history of drugs that require caution when driving or drugs that prohibit driving. This makes it possible to identify the risk of a worker developing a problem due to the side effects of the drugs.

[0088] Furthermore, for example, the discrimination unit 12A can determine that the employee has a high risk of health problems based on the fact that although there is a history of prescription of medicine for the treatment of a disease that requires continued medication, a predetermined period has passed since the most recent last prescription date. This makes it possible to grasp the risk of the employee developing a problem due to the recurrence or worsening of a disease or illness.

[0089] The presenting unit 13A can present different types of landmarks depending on the basis of the above-mentioned determination. Specifically, the presenting unit 13A can, for example, Signs to encourage driving caution or to warn against driving (e.g., messages such as "Drive carefully" or "Do not drive"); and Indicators to indicate that a given treatment has been suspended (e.g., a message such as "Treatment Suspended"): For these marks, including the marks described in the first embodiment, one mark may also serve as another mark.

[0090] The manner of presentation by the presentation unit 13A will be described more specifically. Suppose now that it has been determined that a certain employee is taking a prescribed drug that prohibits driving. In this case, the presentation unit 13A displays the employee information by adding a red mark with the text "Prohibited Driving." Also, suppose it has been determined that a certain employee has a disease that requires continued medication, and has a history of discontinuing medication for that treatment, but a prescribed period has passed since the most recent prescription date. In this case, the presentation unit 13A displays the employee information by adding a purple mark with the text "Discontinued Treatment."

[0091] <How to present health risk> The method for presenting health hazard risks according to this embodiment is basically the same as the method described in the embodiment, but further includes the following: authenticating the employee; acquiring employee medication information; a step of presenting the roll call status as employee information together with a mark according to the determination; a step of displaying the breath alcohol concentration of the employee as the employee information and also presenting a mark according to the determination; It may have at least one of:

[0092] In step S11, similar to step S1 in the first embodiment, the system stores at least a part of the medical checkup information iH provided by the medical institution (storage step). Step S11 may be performed only when new or updated medical checkup information is added.

[0093] In step S12, the employee is authenticated (authentication step), and in step S13, the employee's medication information iM is acquired (acquisition step). As described above, if the Mynaportal with which the employee registers is linked to the medicine notebook app, it may be possible to acquire the employee's medication information iM by reading personal information from the Mynacard in the authentication step. In this case, the authentication step can also serve as the acquisition step, i.e., step S13 can be omitted.

[0094] In step S14, the employee's health impairment risk is determined based on part of the employee's health check information and further part of the employee's medication information (determination step). Note that during the flow up to this point, the user can appropriately obtain the roll call status of the employee and detect the alcohol concentration in the employee's breath.

[0095] In step S15 after the above, the employee information is displayed and a mark corresponding to the above determination is presented (presentation step). In this method, a mark corresponding to the above determination can be presented together with the employee's roll call status and the alcohol concentration in their breath.

[0096] One aspect of the present invention has been described above. Even with Embodiment 2, which is one aspect of the present invention, it is possible to obtain the same effects as those of Embodiment 1. In particular, according to Embodiment 2, which is one aspect of the present invention, it is possible to link with a roll call system and an alcohol concentration detection system, and further to determine the risk of health problems using part of medication information in addition to part of health checkup information. This makes it possible to evaluate the risk of health problems from multiple perspectives while ensuring ease of use.

[0097] Regarding embodiment 2, each of the aspects of linking with a roll call system, linking with an alcohol concentration detection system, and determining the risk of health problems using part of the medication information in addition to part of the health check information can be implemented independently, and the system is not necessarily limited to linking with all of them. [Industrial Applicability]
