Benefits of technology

The invention allows for evaluating risks based on changes in users' mental information.

Problems solved by technology

If a member engaged in a business operation suffers from mental damage such as stress, a leave of absence and troubles may result in seriously affecting productivity and / or continuity of the business operation.
Depending on a circumstance of the business operation, it may cause serious mental damage to members who are engaged in the business operation.
Although measures have been taken to mitigate the above risk by measurement of mental information such as stress of employees and / or members who are engaged in a business operation, absolute evaluation is difficult to obtain because mental information depends on the personality and temperament of subjects and is susceptible to a situation at the time of measurement.
Accordingly, it is difficult to predict a risk based on the mental stress of each subject, which is based on mental information at one point.
However, this method may not determine whether a current business operation is good or poor.
Also, business inspection is often carried out subsequently, which does not necessarily enable risk evaluation in real time.

Embodiment Construction

[0031]With reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, one embodiment according to the present invention will now be described. The present embodiment will be described as a risk evaluation system for use in evaluating a risk in each member and a business operation by obtaining mental information of members (or individuals in charge) who carry out the business operation collectively. For example, description will be made on the assumption that a group made of an aggregation of individuals shares a target business operation to carry out in such a case as system development. Then, a mental value of a party (which is an individual or a group playing a specific role) is used for risk evaluation. In order to realize this, the present embodiment uses a stress management system 20 connected to a plurality of measurement devices 10 as shown in FIG. 1.

[0032]The measurement devices 10 are measurement means (or measurement units) for measuring the stress of each person in charge as mental information of th...

Abstract

Disclosed is a risk evaluation system that uses people as sensors, wherein a control unit (21) in a stress management system (20) obtains mental health information and records same in a measurement information database (25). The control unit (21) then specifies a pattern in a reference pattern database (24) and obtains the measurement information relating to this pattern from the measurement information database (25). The control unit (21) in the stress management system (20) then revises a standard pattern based on individual attributes or work attributes. Next, the control unit (21) performs pattern matching and determines whether or not attention is required. If the determination is that attention is required, the control unit (21) presents an alert and an advice. This enables work, organization, and member risks to be appropriately evaluated based on changes in mental health information for a user.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is the U.S. National Stage of International Patent Application No. PCT / JP2011 / 060225 filed on Apr. 27, 2011, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-105882 filed on Apr. 30, 2010, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a risk evaluation system for perceiving the risk status of business operations, organizations and members by using each person as a sensor through observation of transition made in mental metrics such as the stress level of members involved in an organization and / or a business operation.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The measurement of stress has been carried out in order to understand health and mental conditions as well as for other medical purposes. There has been a technique studied to realize reduction of mental stress by collecting data such as physiological quantity, subject...
