In some arrangements, the control system is configured to receive data relating to workers present at the set of production equipment from the worker detection system and perform one or more control processes to optimize operation of one or more sets of production equipment and / or evaluate safety risks faced by the worker during the work shift based on data received from the wearable devices.

A system and method for evaluating safety risk of workers is presented. The system includes wearable devices configured to be attached to or carried by workers during a work shift and a monitoring system. The wearable device includes sensors configured to sample sensor data indicative of working conditions and work performed by workers. The wearable device is configured to record an audio recording and communicate a set of data including the audio recording and / or sensor data to the monitoring system in response to an event trigger being engaged. In one or more arrangements, the monitoring system is configured to facilitate creation of a workflow for performance of a task described in the audio recording in response to receiving the set of data.

To reduce a burden on a user when creating a work shift.SOLUTION: A work shift generation system includes a shift generation unit (15) that generates a work shift, a shift presentation unit (11) that presents the work shift generated by the shift generation unit (15), a correction request acquisition unit (12) that receives a content and an importance of a correction request from a shift target person for the presented work shift, and a constraint parameter weighting unit (14) that sets a weight of a setting value of a parameter corresponding to the correction request based on the content and the importance of the correction request.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

To provide a worker assigning device capable of automatically preparing an optimized shift plan and work plan.SOLUTION: A work plan determination variable generation section configured to generate a work plan determination variable for determining whether or not the link is actually used, corresponding to the link of the work plan graph structure, a work plan constraint expression generation section configured to generate a work plan constraint expression for constraining a relationship between the shift determination variable and the work plan determination variable, and an optimization solver execution section configured to execute an optimization solver of integer programming, A work shift plan and a worker allocation plan as optimum solutions are created by setting a shift determination variable, a work plan determination variable, a work plan constraint expression, and a preliminarily created evaluation function in an optimization solver of an integer programming method, and executing them by an optimization solver execution part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

To provide an UNDO processing execution program for making a computer execute UNDO processing for efficiently returning tabular data which can be updated by an arbitrary operation to a state before update.SOLUTION: The UNDO processing execution program 10 includes a recording step for recording pre-update information when the work shift table 30 is updated by manual operation, an UNDO processing reception step for receiving a cancellation request, and an UNDO processing execution step for executing restoration operation corresponding to the pre-update information on the basis of the pre-update information and the cancellation request. In the recording step, when the first information is input to the input region 31 by the manual operation, the pre-update information of the input region 31 to which the first information is input is recorded, and when the second information corresponding to the first information is input to another input region 31 by the auto-complete operation, the pre-update information of the input region 31 to which the second information is input is recorded together with the pre-update information of the input region 31 to which the first information is input.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

A computerized-method for distributing workload of a working-shift of a source-location to working-shifts in target-locations, via a WFM-application in a multiple-locations contact center. The computerized-method comprising: (i) receiving a rebalancing-request and workload-information of the working-shift of the source-location; (ii) parsing the workload-information to extract affected-SUs, target-SUs and critical-skills; (iii) for each parallel time-interval in a parallel working-shift of each target-location and for each critical-skill: retrieving staffing-plans of the target-SUs, and marking the parallel time-interval as overstaffed for the critical-skill based on a net-staffing calculation; (iv) operating agents-distribution for each parallel time-interval and for each critical-skill based on the parallel time-intervals marked as overstaffed; and (v) configuring WFM-application to: update staffing-plans of parallel working-shift of each target-location, based on the operated agents-distribution; generate new-schedules for agents in the target-SUs based on the updated staffing plans of parallel working-shift of each target-location; and remove existing schedules of the affected-SUs of parallel working-shift.

To provide an automatic shift generation device, an automatic shift generation method, and an automatic shift generation program capable of preventing or suppressing the need for a user to greatly correct a generated work shift table by manual work.SOLUTION: The shift automatic generation device 200 has a shift condition setting part and a label arrangement part. The shift condition setting unit sets a plurality of shift conditions for generating the shift table. The label arrangement part performs pre-arrangement processing for arranging the labels in advance in the shift table on the basis of a priority shift condition to be preferentially satisfied among the plurality of shift conditions prior to final arrangement processing for finally arranging the labels in the shift table by the genetic algorithm so as to satisfy the plurality of shift conditions.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6

To reduce the load of adjusting a work shift by visually displaying a time zone when a predetermined qualified person is absent in the case of setting the work shift of an employee when the predetermined qualified person needs to stand by during business hours in a store.SOLUTION: A work shift setting system according to the present embodiment includes shift setting means for setting a shift of an employee and registering shift data in a storage area for a designated store and a target month in response to an operation of an operator at the store, and shift adjusting means for displaying the employee, the presence or absence of a predetermined qualification, and a working time zone for the store and a target day with reference to the shift data and an employee master in response to an operation of the operator at the store on an adjustment screen, checking whether there is a time zone in which the employee having the predetermined qualification is absent, displaying a warning for the absent time zone if there is the absent time zone, and adjusting the shift of the employee if possible for the absent time zone.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
