  Since the management server 100 automatically generates authentication information and transmits it to the transmission destination when the employee inputs a transmission destination corresponding to the family, the employee himself / herself does not need to transmit the authentication information. , Authentication information is less likely to be misused by third parties.

(Second Embodiment)
The safety confirmation system S according to the present embodiment performs a process for confirming the operation of the family terminal 20 in addition to the process of the first embodiment. Thereby, it can be checked whether the family terminal 20 authenticated in the first embodiment is still used by a family. Other configurations and processes are the same as those in the first embodiment.

[Configuration of Management Server 100]
FIG. 8 is a block diagram of the management server 100 according to the present embodiment. The control unit 110 of the management server 100 according to the present embodiment further includes an operation confirmation unit 116 in addition to the configuration of FIG.

  The operation confirmation unit 116 transmits an operation inquiry message to the family terminal 20 authenticated in the first embodiment, for example, when a predetermined time has elapsed since the authentication of the family terminal 20 or the previous inquiry. . As the transmission destination of the inquiry message, transmission destination information acquired by the transmission destination acquisition unit 112 may be used, or terminal information acquired by the information reception unit 115 may be used. The inquiry message includes a link to the safety confirmation system S.

  When using destination information as a destination, the operation confirmation unit 116 transmits an inquiry message to, for example, an email address, a telephone number, or an SNS account indicated by the destination information. When using terminal information as a transmission destination, the operation confirmation unit 116 transmits an inquiry message to an application installed in the family terminal 20 associated with the terminal information, for example.

  The family who has received the inquiry message accesses the safety confirmation system S in response to the inquiry message at the authenticated family terminal 20. At this time, the family terminal 20 transmits its terminal information (second identification information) to the management server 100.

  The information receiving unit 115 of the management server 100 receives the terminal information transmitted from the family terminal 20 via the communication unit 120. When the information reception unit 115 receives the terminal information from the family terminal 20 within a predetermined time from the transmission of the inquiry message, the operation confirmation unit 116 determines that there is a response from the family terminal 20.

  If the information receiving unit 115 does not receive the terminal information from the family terminal 20 even after a predetermined time has elapsed since the inquiry message is transmitted, the operation confirmation unit 116 determines that there is no response from the family terminal 20. When it is determined that there is no response from the family terminal 20, the operation confirmation unit 116 notifies the employee terminal 10 of the employee ID associated with the family terminal 20 that there is no response from the family terminal 20. .

  When it is determined that there is no response from the family terminal 20, the operation confirmation unit 116 may transmit an inquiry message to the family terminal 20 again. At this time, when the operation confirmation unit 116 determines that there is no response from the family terminal 20 even if the transmission of the inquiry message is repeated a predetermined number of times, there is no response from the family terminal 20 to the employee terminal 10. Notification of.

  The employee who has received the notification inputs the transmission destination information regarding the family again at the employee terminal 10. Thereafter, the management server 100 authenticates the family terminal 20 as in the first embodiment.

[Effects of Second Embodiment]
According to the present embodiment, it is possible to periodically check the operation of the family terminal 20 authenticated from the safety confirmation system S, and to prompt the employee to authenticate the family terminal 20 again if there is no response. Can do. Therefore, even if the terminal used by the family is changed, the new terminal can be quickly authenticated as the family terminal 20. With such a configuration, when the safety confirmation by the safety confirmation system S actually becomes necessary, it is possible to reduce the situation where the family terminal 20 cannot access the safety confirmation system S.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated using embodiment, the technical scope of this invention is not limited to the range as described in the said embodiment, A various deformation | transformation and change are possible within the range of the summary. is there.
