  Here, in recent years, due to the increase in health consciousness, many people go to facilities such as a gym, and many people purchase exercise equipment and exercise personally. Along with this, measuring instruments such as heart rate and blood pressure are prevalent in various places such as sports gyms and homes, and it is possible to easily perform health checkups at regular health checkups or in places other than medical facilities such as hospitals. It has become like this.

  However, at present, measurement results and diagnosis results obtained at various places are managed in a distributed manner. For this reason, there is currently only a method for each person to manage the latest data on the diagnosis results and measurement results of each person, in other words, the health information that most reflects the current health status of each person. is there.

  In order to collectively manage health check results in individual facilities such as hospitals and sports clubs, it is necessary to construct a network between these facilities to realize a system for collectively managing health information. It is practically difficult to construct such a system.

  It is also conceivable to always record health information on an IC card used in the health diagnosis management system disclosed in Patent Document 1. However, if the IC card is lost, the health information is completely lost, which makes it impossible to properly manage the health, which is extremely inconvenient.

  In view of these points, the problem of the present invention is that employee health information that can efficiently manage employee health information on a company-by-company basis by effectively utilizing the facilities for employee authentication provided in each company. To propose a management method and system.

In order to solve the above problems, the employee health information management method of the present invention is:
Issue an employee ID card with an ID storage area for storing employee identification information and a health information storage area for storing health information to each employee,
An employee ID card writing device is installed at the health checkup location where equipment for measuring health conditions is installed,
Write the measurement results obtained at each health check location to the health information storage area of the employee ID that the subject owns using the employee ID writing device,
Read employee health information stored in the health information storage area at the time of reading employee identification information in the employee ID card reader installed in the company's facility.
The health information read by the employee ID reader is sent to the health management server for managing employee health information along with employee identification information.
In the health management server, register the received health information with the employee identification information in the health management database,
The health management database is characterized by backing up the health information of each employee stored and held in each employee ID card.

  Here, as the employee ID card, an IC card having a larger storage capacity than a magnetic card or the like can be used.

  Examples of the health check location include a hospital facility where a measurement device for health check is installed, a clinic, and a sports gym where various measuring instruments are installed. If the employee's home is equipped with a measuring device such as a sphygmomanometer or a pulse meter, the home may be used. An employee ID writing device such as a card reader / writer that can write the measurement results of these measuring instruments to the employee ID may be connected to each measuring instrument.

  Furthermore, as the employee ID reading device, for example, an attendance system for managing employee attendance, an entrance / exit management system for managing employee entry / exit, an employee cafeteria ticket vending machine, an in-house store POS system, etc. An employee card reader such as a card reader / writer for employee authentication used in the present invention can be used.

  In the employee health information management method of the present invention, the health information of each employee is centrally managed by using an employee ID card. In other words, health checkup results in a hospital or the like are accumulated on the employee ID card. In addition, measurement results such as heart rate and blood pressure measured in facilities such as sports gyms are also stored in the employee ID card. Accordingly, health information representing the health status of each employee is centrally managed by the employee ID. As a result, information indicating the current health status of the employee is always accumulated in the employee ID card, so that the health status of the employee can be accurately determined based on this health information, and appropriate for employee health management. Will also be able to provide guidance.

  The health information stored in the employee ID is read by the employee ID reader, registered in the company health management database, and backed up. The employee ID card is generally used at the time of going to and from work, entering and leaving a room, employee cafeteria, employee shop, and the like. Therefore, in a normal working state, the employee ID is read by the system installed in the company several times a day, and the employee authentication is performed. Therefore, when the health information stored in the employee ID is updated, the backup data is generally registered in the health management database on the updated date or on the next day. As a result, even when the employee loses the employee ID card, the health information indicating the latest health status of the employee can be known.

  Here, when the health management database is updated, it may be performed based on the writing date and time of the health information stored in the employee ID card. That is, in the employee ID writing device, the writing date / time information is written into the health information storage area of the employee ID when each health information is written. The employee ID reader reads the health information and the writing date / time information from the employee ID, and the health management server registers each health information in the health management database in a form associated with the employee identification information and the writing date / time information.

  When the health management server receives the information from the employee ID reading device, the health information writing date / time information is compared with the corresponding health information writing date / time information registered in the health management database. Only when it is newer than, the corresponding registration content is updated with the received health information.

  In addition, if the writing date and time information is the same date and time as the writing date and time information registered in the health management database, whether or not the received health information matches the health information registered in the health management database. If they match, it is determined that the health information is normally backed up, and if they do not match, a process of determining that an abnormality has occurred may be performed. Based on this determination, it is possible to quickly perform a recovery process when an abnormality has occurred.

  Here, there is writing location information as attribute information of health information. By recording the writing location information, it is possible to know where the health information was measured. For example, when measured by a professional inspector in a hospital, it can be determined that the reliability of the measurement information is high. On the contrary, when the employee measures at home, it can be determined that the reliability of the measurement information is not high.

  On the other hand, the present invention relates to a health information management system for employees, and is characterized by managing the health information of each employee by the above method.

  In the employee health information management method and system according to the present invention, health information of each employee is collectively managed for each employee by using an employee ID card formed of a storage medium such as an IC card. Since companies have established a system for employee authentication based on employee ID cards, simply installing an ID card writing device such as a card reader / writer in a facility or place where medical examination equipment and measuring equipment are installed. Inventive methods and systems can be implemented. Therefore, according to the present invention, a practical method and system capable of centrally managing the health information of each employee can be obtained for the first time.

  In addition, backup data of each employee's health information is stored in the health management database of each company, and the backup data is updated every time the employee ID is used without the employee being aware of it. Therefore, the update work of the backup data is not bothered and the update work is performed substantially in real time. Therefore, for example, even when the employee ID is lost, the latest health status of the employee can be known from the backup data.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of an employee health information management system to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to the drawings.

(overall structure)
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing an employee health information management system according to the present embodiment. The health information management system 2 for employees, whose main part is installed in the company's facility 1, is used to manage the entrance and exit of each facility in the company company by performing employee authentication using the employee ID card 3. It is constructed using the hardware and software of an in-house management system that manages computer equipment, access to each database, management of each employee's attendance, and sales management of in-house stores.

  The employee ID card 3 is made from, for example, an IC card. In this example, the employee ID card 3 is provided with a plastic rectangular card body 3a and an IC chip 3b embedded therein, and an employee ID 30 for employee authentication is stored in the storage area of the IC chip 3b. ID storage area 3c, health information storage area 3d for storing health information, and the like are included. The health information includes items such as blood pressure value, heart rate, blood sugar level, body fat percentage, physical strength and endurance. These items 31, test values or measured values 32, writing date and time 33, etc. Are stored in the health information storage area 3d in a correlated form.

  The employee health information management system 2 is mainly composed of a company health management server 4 including peripheral devices such as a computer and an input device, an output device, and an external memory. The in-company health management server 4 includes a health management database 5 constructed in, for example, an external memory, and the health information of each employee is registered and managed centrally. In the health management database 5, employee information 50 including an employee ID of each employee, an item 51 representing each health information, an inspection value or a measured value 52, and a writing date and time 53 are registered in association with each other. .

  A plurality of computer terminals, information processing terminals 7 (1), 7 (2)... Such as a copy machine are connected to the in-house health management server 4 via an in-house LAN 6. In addition, devices and terminals that need to use the employee ID card 3 are connected. These include, for example, employee attendance management devices 8a arranged at one or a plurality of locations, entrance / exit management devices 9a installed at the entrances and exits of material rooms where confidential documents are stored, and cash registers at employee shops. POS terminal 10a and the like. The attendance / exit management device 8a, the entrance / exit management device 9a, and the POS terminal 10a are equipped with card reader / writers 8b, 9b, and 10b (employee card reading devices) for writing and reading information on the employee card 3, respectively. Or it is connected.

  As is well known, the attendance and attendance management apparatus 8a reads the employee ID card 3 by the card reader / writer 8b and manages attendance and attendance time of each employee. The entrance / exit management device 9a permits entry of only employees who are allowed to enter based on the employee ID card 3. The POS terminal 10a performs, for each employee, processing such as charging / settlement of merchandise sales based on the employee ID. The processing information at each terminal is transmitted to the in-company management server functioning as the in-company health management server 4 and registered in each database constructed by the in-company management server.

  On the other hand, the employee health management system 2 includes a card reader / writer (employee card writing device) disposed in a facility outside the company, in addition to a part constructed using the in-company management system. For example, one or more card reader / writers 11b are installed in the hospital 11 facility. One or a plurality of card reader / writers 12b are also installed in the facility of the sports gym 12. Further, for example, one card reader / writer 13b is also installed at each employee's home 13.

(Management of health information)
The operation of processing the health information of each employee by the employee health information management system 2 configured as described above will be described. First, an employee ID 3 in which an employee ID 30 is written is issued to each employee from the company. Each employee ID card 3 is provided with a health information storage area 3d (block B1).

  For example, when an employee goes to the hospital 11 to receive a health check (block B2), the health check result is written on the employee ID card 3 by the card reader / writer 11b installed there (block B3).

  When this employee goes to the company 1 on the next day and passes the employee card 3 through the card reader / writer 8b of the attendance management device 8a, the health information written therein is read in parallel with the employee authentication operation. It is transmitted to the in-company health management server 4 (block B4). The in-company health management server 4 registers the received health information in the health management database 5 in a form associated with the employee ID and the writing date (block B5). As a result, backup data of health information written in the employee ID card 3 is held in the health management database 5.

  Next, it is assumed that the same employee uses a lunch break on another day to go to the gym 12 and measures blood pressure, heart rate, etc. before training (block B2). Also in this case, the measured value is written in the employee ID card 3 by the card reader / writer 12b installed in the sports gym 12 (block B3). Here, since the examination information at the hospital has already been written in the health information storage area 3d of the employee ID card 3, these examination items and the date and time of writing are updated to new ones.

  After this, it is assumed that this employee returns to the company, for example, enters the data room and does business. In this case, it is necessary to pass the employee ID card 3 through the card reader / writer 9b of the entrance / exit management device 9b in order to enter the room. When the employee ID 3 is passed, along with the employee authentication operation, the health information written therein is read and transmitted to the company health management server 4 (block B4). The in-company health management server 4 confirms that the date and time of writing the health information of the employee registered in the health management database 5 is older than the received update date and time. After that, the health information that has been examined, in this case, the blood pressure value and heart rate items are updated, and the date and time of writing are also updated (block B5).

  In this way, the latest health information is accumulated in the employee ID card 3 every time each employee receives a health examination and measurement. Further, the latest health information accumulated in the employee ID card 3 is read and transmitted to the in-company health management server 4 every time the employee ID is used in the company for the employee authentication. Therefore, the health information stored in the employee ID card 3 is always backed up in the health management database 5.

  The health status of each employee is centrally managed by the employee ID 3, and the latest information reflecting the current health status is always accumulated. Therefore, each employee can connect his / her card reader / writer 7b to the computer terminal 7 (1) in the company 1 and read the health information stored in the employee ID card 3 and display it on a monitor or the like. You can check your health as needed.

  In addition, the person in charge of health management on the company side can check the registered information in the health management database 5 to see the latest health information reflecting the current health status of each employee. Management can be performed appropriately. Furthermore, even when the employee loses the employee ID card 3, the latest health information is always backed up in the health management database 5, so that the loss of the employee ID card does not hinder the health management.

  In the information management process of this example, the health information of the employee ID card 3 and the health management database 5 is updated based on the writing date. Along with the date and time of writing, the health information writing location, that is, the facility information indicating whether the health information was written on the employee ID card 3 in each place such as a hospital, a gym, or at home is also the employee ID as attribute information of the health information. 3 may be written, and update processing may be performed based on this. For example, the result of a test performed by a professional inspector at a hospital is highly reliable, but the reliability and accuracy of a measurement result performed at home or the like are generally low. Therefore, it may be desirable to store and hold the test results of the same item separately if the location where the test is performed is different. In such a case, it is desirable to write facility information indicating examination and measurement locations, and manage the storage and update of health information based on the facility information.

  If health information is managed by adopting a common language such as XML, health information written on the employee ID card can be easily confirmed at various places using a general-purpose information processing device such as a personal computer.

  Further, in the above example, the health information stored in the employee ID card 3 in the health management database 5 is backed up. The employee ID 3 may be updated by overwriting the health information, and the health management database 5 may store the past health information history together with the backup information. In this way, it is possible to know the transition of the health condition of each employee, and based on this, guidance such as improvement of lifestyle can be appropriately given from the company side.
