[Prior art]
In managing a company, it is very important to accurately grasp the labor costs in each business. Usually, when calculating labor costs, it is necessary to know the exact time that an employee has been engaged in the work, which requires very strict work management. By determining the approximate amount of time spent on the system and multiplying that time by the approximate unit cost of labor costs, the entire company was looking for labor costs spent on its operations.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional labor cost calculation method as described above, for example, the calculated labor cost may be significantly different from the actual labor cost, and misrecognition of the labor cost may be a major factor in management deterioration. Conceivable.
Even if each business is strictly managed, the management of the business content is often self-reported, so there is no guarantee that the reliability of the information itself is low and that accurate labor costs can be calculated. It was.
[0004]
In addition, in-house workers who stay in one place and perform their duties can be said to be relatively easy to manage because they are under the control of their supervisors, but in the case of outside employees such as sales departments who often go out, Since it is difficult for an administrator to grasp the work contents of each person, all the work contents in a day are declared by the employee himself / herself. For this reason, it must be said that the reliability of the reported information is extremely lower than that of office workers.
[0005]
In this way, in the past, it was extremely difficult to determine the exact time required for each job, especially for those who work at their own risk. It was extremely difficult to do and there was no effective hand.

It is a validity judgment unit that judges whether or not the information is legitimate information.
Further, each unit described above is connected to the bus 19 so that information of each unit can be transmitted and received.
[0014]
The business table 12 and the labor cost unit price table 13 include a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk device, a magneto-optical disk device, and a flash memory, a volatile memory such as a RAM (Random Access Memory), or the like. It is assumed to be composed of a computer-readable and writable recording medium by a combination of the above.
In addition, an input device, a display device, and the like (none of which are shown) are connected to the business management device 10 as peripheral devices. Here, the input device refers to an input device such as a keyboard and a mouse. The display device refers to a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) display device, a liquid crystal display device, or the like.
[0015]
Next, the operation of the business management apparatus 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. First, an employee carrying the information communication terminal 20 inputs business information or the like from the information communication terminal and transmits the information to the business management apparatus 10 at a predetermined timing.
Specifically, the employee performs an operation for displaying a work information input screen from the input unit of the information communication terminal 20 when the employee shifts to a predetermined time interval or a different work. Thereby, for example, an input screen as shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the display unit of the information communication terminal.
The employee inputs the contents of work he / she is currently performing while confirming the input screen. For example, if the employee is currently performing the business (1), the business (1) is selected and transmission processing is performed.
[0016]
When the above-described operation is performed by the employee, the information communication terminal 20 automatically acquires the position information from the GPS 40, the business information input by the employee earlier, the position information, the time information when the input operation was performed, And the identification information of the employee who handles the information communication terminal 20 are associated with each other and the information (information relating to the business) is transmitted to the business management device via the Internet network 30. The employee identification information is not particularly limited as long as it is information that can identify the employee in addition to the employee number of the employee.
[0017]
The information transmitted from the information communication terminal 20 in this way is received by the communication unit 11 of the business management apparatus 10 via the Internet network 30 and output to the update unit 14. First, the update unit 14 updates the position information table 17 based on the received information.
[0018]
In the position information table 17, the work information and the position information are stored in association with each employee. When the position information table 17 is updated, the validity determination unit 18 determines the validity of the information related to the job received this time by comparing the job information received this time with the position information.
[0019]
This determination is made by, for example, associating position information consisting of latitude and longitude with map information to determine the current location on the employee's map, comparing the calculated current location with the business information, and the business information is legitimate information. Judge whether there is.
For example, if the current location calculated from the location information is a bookstore despite receiving business information indicating that “negotiations at a specific location”, it is determined that the information is related to a lie business. To do.
In addition, even when business information indicating “moving” is received, the location information does not change from the previously received location information, that is, when the location information remains at the same position for a predetermined time. By determining that the employee has not moved, it is determined that the information relating to the received work is lie information.
[0020]
If it is determined that the received information is unfair information (lie information), a warning is issued to notify the administrator of the device and to the update unit 14 A signal indicating is output. Examples of the notification means include a method of displaying a message indicating that the information is largely illegal on a display unit (not shown) or generating a warning sound.
On the other hand, as a result of the above determination, if the validity of the information related to the business received this time is recognized, a signal indicating that fact is output to the updating unit 14.
[0021]
When the update unit 14 receives a signal from the validity determination unit 18 that the information related to the business is invalid, the update unit 14 deletes the information related to the business.
On the other hand, when a signal indicating that the information related to the business is valid is received from the validity determination unit 18, the business table 12 is updated based on the information related to the business.
For example, with reference to the business table 12 shown in FIG. 3, the information related to the business whose validity has been recognized is information such as “employee A, business (2), 13:00”. In this case, the business content of the employee A in the business table 12 is set to the business (2) at the time of “13:00”.
The update unit 14 updates the work table 12 based on the information each time the validity of the information related to the work received from the information communication terminal 20 is confirmed.
As a result, a table describing the work contents of the employee in one day as shown in FIG. 3 is created, thereby clarifying the work contents of the employee day and day.
[0022]
In this way, when information on which work has been performed and how much has been accumulated in each employee, the individual labor cost calculation unit 15 refers to the work table 12 and the labor cost unit price table 13 to For each task, calculate the labor cost for each task.
Specifically, first, the individual labor cost calculation unit 15 determines, for each employee, how much time is spent for each job.
For example, taking employee A in the business table 12 shown in FIG. 3 as an example, business service (1) is 4 hours from 9:00 to 13:00, business service (2) is from 13:00 to 17:00. 4 hours, 4 hours from 17:00 to 21:00 for work (3).
[0023]
Subsequently, the individual personnel cost calculation unit 15 reads out the personnel cost unit price of the employee A from the personnel cost unit price table 13 shown in FIG. 4, that is, reads out 800 yen, and the personnel cost unit price of 800 yen at the time described above. By multiplying, labor costs in each job are calculated.
As a result, for the employee A, the labor cost of 4 hours × 800 yen = 3200 yen for the business (1), similarly, 3200 yen for the business (2) and 3200 yen for the business (3) is calculated.
Then, the individual personnel cost calculation unit 15 performs the processing performed on the employee A for all the employees registered in the business table 12.
[0024]
Then, when the individual labor cost calculation unit 15 calculates the labor cost in each job for all employees, the labor cost calculation unit 16 calculates the sum of the labor costs for each job based on the calculation result. To do.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 6, the time spent in the entire company for the work and the labor cost are calculated for each work.
[0025]
Note that the individual labor cost calculation unit 15 and the labor cost calculation unit 16 may calculate the labor cost and the like, for example, periodically when the employee finishes working, for example, at midnight every day. Alternatively, it may be performed every other week or every other month. The execution timing is not particularly limited, and a person who handles the business management apparatus can arbitrarily set and change the execution timing.
[0026]
As described above, according to the business management apparatus 10 in the present embodiment, the validity of information received from the information communication terminal is determined based on the position information, and based on the information related to the business for which the validity is recognized, Since the business table 12 is updated, the information held in the business table 12 is always accurate and highly reliable information.
Since the labor cost for each task is calculated based on the information in the highly reliable task table 12, the calculated labor cost becomes extremely accurate information.
[0027]
In the present embodiment, an example of acquiring position information from GPS has been described. For example, when a mobile phone, PHS (registered trademark) (Personal Handyphone System) or the like is used as an information communication terminal, a wireless line is used. The location information may be determined based on the base station information that establishes the location information, or may be location information obtained by a wireless communication standard such as Bluetooth.
Moreover, the structure of the various tables shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4 is an example, and is not limited to this structure.
[0028]
In the above-described embodiment, the case where information related to work is acquired from an information communication terminal via the Internet network has been described. Of course, when performing work management of a so-called office worker working in the company, an internal LAN is used. Information may be transmitted and received via (Local Area Network) or an intranet.
Further, the input screen data displayed on the information communication terminal may be configured to be automatically transmitted from the business management device via the communication line network when the employee operates the information communication terminal. It is good also as a structure previously recorded in the memory of an information communication terminal. Further, the input screen is not limited to the input screen shown in FIG. 5, and any screen configuration may be used as long as it is possible to input which business is currently performed.
[0029]
