Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cafeteria plan management system that manages a cafeteria plan that allows each employee to select and set various menus for benefit programs. The present invention relates to a cafeteria plan setting device that creates a cafeteria plan for each member.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, companies and organizations are provided with various facilities to improve employee welfare. Companies and organizations that employ more than a certain number of employees have employee cafeterias, stalls, company homes, single dormitories, clinics and recreation facilities in tourist areas. In addition to the above facilities directly operated by companies and organizations, contracts are made with general hotels, inns, recreational facilities and hospitals, and if their own employees use these facilities, they will be subsidized in full. ,
Half-price assistance is provided. Furthermore, in order to promote the health management and self-development of employees, the company will pay a part of the cost of going to a gym or language school.

[0003] When each employee uses a facility other than a facility that is regularly used, such as an employee cafeteria, a dormitory, or a company house, the employee's welfare department in advance receives, for example, a use ticket, and This use ticket is presented to the facility staff. In addition, there is a case where the payment for the use of the facility is paid once, the receipt is taken home, and a subsidized charge is provided by the welfare department at a later date.

[0004]

However, as described above, there is the following problem in the welfare management method in which each employee can use each facility.

[0005] That is, even for companies and organizations, there is a certain upper limit to the annual welfare budget. Therefore, if each employee can use each facility at their own discretion when they come up with the idea, if a particular employee intensively uses many facilities early in the fiscal year, it will be near the end of the year. In other words, there is a concern that the budget will be insufficient and other employees will not be able to use the facility. If this happens, unfairness will occur between employees.

In addition, which facilities are used and to what extent are
It is up to each employee to determine the benefit budget accurately. In particular, in each of the facilities that the company directly manages, it is necessary to estimate the approximate number of passengers annually, draft a business plan, and carry out efficient management. It was difficult to implement such efficient management.

In order to solve such inconvenience, each employee is required to make a plan for using his or her own welfare facilities, that is, a plan for his or her own cafeteria prior to the start of the fiscal year. It is conceivable that a staff member of a section in charge of the welfare program collects and registers the cafeteria plan of each employee in a computer or the like. However, it took a great deal of time and clerical work for the staff in the welfare department to input each data of the cafeteria plan of all employees belonging to the company or the organization.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and allows each employee to enter a cafeteria plan created by himself / herself with a simple operation, and also allows the employee welfare department to use the staff member's staff. An object of the present invention is to provide a cafeteria plan setting device capable of accurately grasping the cafeteria plan of each employee without increasing the burden of paperwork.

[0009]

According to the present invention, each employee is given in advance a point which can be used for a certain period in a welfare program, and is used every time the employee uses each facility of the welfare program. Incorporated into the cafeteria plan management system that gradually reduces the points specified in the menu from the points given, and prior to the start of a certain period, each employee will use the registered menu and the corresponding menu This is a cafeteria plan setting device that creates a cafeteria plan consisting of registered points.

[0010] In order to solve the above problem, in the cafeteria plan setting device of the present invention, a registration menu is provided for each benefit type when each employee is classified according to the type of benefit used by the employee. An initial setting memory for storing initial data consisting of a registered menu and a corresponding registration point; a setting menu screen on which a plurality of data input areas for operating and inputting a cafeteria plan registration menu and a registration point; In response to the input of the employee number and the benefit type by the user, the initial data corresponding to the entered benefit type stored in the initial setting memory is written to each data input area of the setting menu screen in the display state. Each initial written in each data entry area of the setting menu screen based on the means and the operation of the corresponding employee Edit the over data, and a cafeteria plan registration means for registering the respective initial data edited as cafeteria plan over a period of time of this time.

[0011] In the cafeteria plan setting device configured as described above, the initial setting memory stores a registration menu for each benefit type when each employee is classified according to the type of benefit used by the employee. And initial data including the registration point of the corresponding menu.

That is, when employees of a company or a group use benefits provided by the company or the group, for example, if they are classified into single men, single women, married men, married women, etc., they are similar. Show behavior patterns. Therefore, each employee is referred to as a single man, single woman, married man,
Classify into multiple benefit types such as married women, and for each benefit type, set the initial data consisting of the greatest common denominator registration menu and the registration points of the corresponding menu in the initial setting memory, and register this initial setting memory Write the menu and the registration point into the data input area of the setting menu screen.

An employee who prepares his / her own cafeteria plan using this cafeteria plan setting device is required to use a registration menu with the greatest common denominator of the welfare type to which he / she belongs and a registration menu if the registration point of the menu is sufficient. There is no need to input the registration points. It is only necessary to input an operation that is different from the cafeteria plan prepared by the user. Therefore, for each employee, the efficiency of setting a cafeteria plan can be greatly improved.

Another aspect of the present invention is the cafeteria plan setting device according to the above invention, wherein the employee inputs the employee number and the welfare type, and the employee has a cafeteria plan for a certain period last time. Instead of the initial data in the initial setting memory, the registration menu and the registration points of the previous cafeteria plan are written into each data input area of the setting menu screen in the display state.

[0015] In the cafeteria plan setting apparatus configured as described above, an employee who has been enrolled for a plurality of periods needs to reset his or her own cafeteria plan every fixed period. In many cases, there is no significant difference from the cafeteria plan set during the period of, and the operability has been improved by inputting only the changes to the previous cafeteria plan.

According to another aspect of the invention, in the cafeteria plan setting device of the invention described above, the employee number and the welfare type are previously stored and held in a card possessed by the employee. Further, the cafeteria plan registration means writes the edited cafeteria plan on the card of the corresponding employee.

In the cafeteria plan setting device thus configured, each employee has a card storing his / her employee number and his / her benefit type and his / her own cafeteria plan. When each employee sets a new cafeteria plan with the cafeteria plan setting device or updates the cafeteria plan at regular intervals, the employee reads the stored information of this card into the cafeteria plan setting device, and Operability can be improved.

FIG. 4 shows the cost sharing ratio table 30.
As shown in (b), for each menu that can be provided (used) at each facility, of the fees (expenses) generated when employees use the corresponding menu, the expenses paid by the company or organization in the welfare budget Is stored. For example, a medical checkup indicates that all expenses (companies) are borne, while sports clubs and culture
0% indicates the expense (company) burden, and the remaining 70% indicates the individual (employee) burden.

In the menu master table 27, FIG.
As shown in (1), the details of the menu of each facility that can be provided to the employee by the company or organization in which the cafeteria plan management system is installed are stored. Specifically, a section 27a indicating a classification and an item 27b indicating details are set. The categories 27a include "medical care", "housing", "recreation (recreation) activities", "self-development", "vacation", "living assistance", and the like.
7A shows the specific support contents and the subsidy amount belonging to 7a. For example, in the category 27b of “medical”, item 2 of “Ningen Dock (person) Allocation (subsidized) amount once 8340 yen”
7b is set. In addition, category 27 of "rek activity"
b, "Sports gym distribution (subsidized) amount once 3
The item 27b of "500 yen" is set.

As shown in FIG. 6A, in the initial setting memory 31, the above-mentioned "single men", "single women",
For each benefit type 22 of "married men" and "married women"
An initial setting table 33 corresponding to each of the employee categories 21 of “regular employee (1)”, “regular employee (2)”, “part-time employee”, and “partner employee” is stored. Therefore, a total of 16 initialization tables 33 are stored. Note that the initial setting memory 31 also stores each upper limit point for each employee category 21.

For example, "married man" and "full-time employee (1)"
As shown in FIG. 6B, in the initial setting table 33, an item 27b of medical checkup (person) is set in the medical category 27 as a registration menu, and a registration point of "10" is set. . In addition, a housing loan assistance item 27b is set in the house category 27, and a registration point of “40” is set. Further, an accommodation facility (contract) item 27b is set in the recreation activity category 27, and a registration point of "30" is set.

Which item 27b is set in which class 27a depends on the welfare type 22. For example, in the case of "single men", the sports gym assisting item 27 is set in the recreation activity class 27.

In each of the initial setting tables 33,
If only the employee category 21 is different for the same benefit type 22, the registration menu is basically the same and only the registration points are different.

In the cafeteria plan DB 28, FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, the cafeteria plan table 23 described with reference to FIG. 2B is formed for all employees who use the benefits menu of this company or organization. Each cafeteria plan table 23 has an employee number 20, which identifies each employee, a name, an employee category 21, a welfare type 22, and an upper limit point.

The card information memory 39 contains a card R /
The card information of the ID card 13 read in W14 is written. The menu master table 27 and the initial setting memory 31 are stored in the storage unit 26 of the server 1 shown in FIG.
And the same contents as the menu master table 27 and the initial setting memory 31 of the server 1 are stored.

The setting menu screen memory 40 stores a setting menu screen 42 shown in FIG. 9 which is used when each employee sets his or her own cafeteria plan. In the setting menu screen 42, the employee number 2 is displayed.
Area 43a where 0 is displayed, area 43b where employee category 21 is displayed, area 43 where welfare type 22 is displayed
c, an area 44 for displaying the upper limit point, a data input area 45 for inputting each section 27a of each registered menu,
A data input area 46 for inputting the item 27b of the corresponding section 27a and a data input area 47 for inputting a registration point of each registration menu are formed. Further, a total point is displayed in the setting menu screen 42. Region 48
, An end button 49, a point excess mark 50, and an area 51 where an unset point is displayed.

Each data input area 4 in the registration menu
5, 46 and the data input area 47 of the registration point adopt a method of selecting necessary data with a mouse in a drop-down method. For example, when the arrow of the data input area 45 of the section is clicked with the mouse, a list of each section 27a of the menu master table 27 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the setting menu screen 42, and the operator (employee) is displayed. If one section 27a is clicked with the mouse from the list, the corresponding section 27a moves to the data input area 45.

Similarly, in the data input area 46 of the item 27b, when the arrow is clicked with the mouse, a list of the items 27b belonging to the corresponding section 27a of the menu master table 27 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the setting menu screen 42. Then, the operator (employee) clicks one item 27b from the displayed list with the mouse, and the corresponding item 27b is clicked.
Moves to the data input area 46.

In the data input area 47 of the registered point, if the up and down arrows are clicked with the mouse, the value of the registered point initially set in the data input area 47 moves up and down.

Next, each setting terminal 5 of the cafeteria plan management system to which the plurality of setting terminals 5 and the plurality of facility terminals 7 are connected to the server 1 via the transmission path 4 as described above. The processing operation will be described with reference to a flowchart.

The data processing unit 34 of each setting terminal 5 is configured as shown in FIG.
0, a cafeteria plan setting process is performed for each employee according to the flowchart shown in FIG. When an employee who wants to newly set or change his / her own cafeteria plan inserts (attachs) his / her ID card 13 into the card R / W 14 (R1), the card R / W 14 stores the ID card 13 in the memory 18 of the ID card 13. The stored card information is read and written into the card information memory 39 (R2). When the employee designates the operation mode to the new setting mode using the operation unit 36 (R3, R4), the setting menu screen 42 shown in FIG.
Is read out and displayed on the display unit 35 (R5).

Next, the employee classification 21 and the welfare type 22 in the card information written in the card information memory 39 are read (R6). Next, the initialization table 33 corresponding to the employee group 21 and the benefit type 22 is read from the initialization memory 31 shown in FIG. 6 of the storage unit 38 (R7). Then, the read-out initial setting table 33 displays the registered menu sections 27a, items 27b, and registered points in the corresponding data input areas 45, 46, and 47 of the display state setting menu screen 42 (R8). . At the same time, each area 43a, 43b, 4
The employee number 20, the employee class 21, and the benefit type 22 read from the card 13 are displayed in 3d, and the upper limit points obtained from the employee class 21 are displayed in the area 44.

In this state, the employee operates the operation unit 3 such as a mouse.
6, the operation of changing the initial data already displayed in the data input area 45 of the section 27a, the data input area 46 of the item 27b, and the data input area 47 of the registration point in the registration menu on the setting menu screen 42 is performed. When the above method is performed (R9), the total points of the registration points displayed in all the data input areas 47 on the setting menu screen 42 at this time are calculated and displayed in the total point area 48 ( Write). Further, the total points are subtracted from the above-mentioned upper limit points to obtain the unset points, which are displayed (written) in the unset point area 51 (R10). At this point, if the total points exceed the upper limit point (R11), a point excess mark 50 is displayed as a warning (R12).

Since the processing for setting (changing) one registration menu and registration point has been completed, the process returns to R9 and waits for the operation for setting (changing) the next registration menu and registration point.

In R13, when the setting end button 49 is clicked, a cafeteria plan table 23 is created in the work memory 41 using the cafeteria plan setting data set on the setting menu screen 42. That is, each remaining point is set as a registered point,
Each used point is set to 0. The ID card 13 into which the created cafeteria plan table 23 is inserted.
Is written to the memory 18. Specifically, the cafeteria plan table 23 in the memory 18 is updated with the newly created cafeteria plan table 23 (R14).

Then, the new cafeteria plan table 23 is written and the ID card 13 is ejected (R1
5). Further, the newly created cafeteria plan table 23 is transmitted to the server 1 together with the employee number 20 stored in the card information memory 34 (S16).

When the employee designates the operation mode as the yearly update mode using the operation unit 36 (R3, R17), a cafeteria plan setting menu screen 42 is displayed on the display unit 35 (R18). Next, the ID being inserted from the card information memory 39
Each registered menu and each registered point of the cafeteria plan table 23 of the card 13 are displayed in each data input area 45, 46, 47 of the setting menu screen 42 (R1
9). Further, the total of the current remaining points in the cafeteria plan table 23 of the card information memory 39 is calculated (R20), and the total of the remaining points is compared with 1/2 of the upper limit point (R21).

The sum of the remaining points is の of the upper limit point
In the following cases, the total of the remaining points is added to the upper limit point to obtain a new upper limit point, and this upper limit point is written in the upper limit point area 44 of the setting menu screen 42 (R22). On the other hand, when the total of the remaining points exceeds １ ／ of the upper limit point, １ ／ of the upper limit point is added to the upper limit point to obtain a new upper limit point. Writing to the area 44 (R23).

When the employee changes or deletes the previous year's registration menu or registration point displayed on the setting menu screen 42, or performs an operation to add a new registration menu or registration point. (R24) The total points of the registered points set at this point are calculated and displayed (written) in the total point area 48. further,
An unset point is obtained by subtracting the total point from the upper limit point described above, and is displayed (written) in the unset point area 51 (R25).

Since the processing for changing, deleting, and adding one registered menu and registered point has been completed, the process returns to R24 to change, delete, and change the next registered menu and registered point.
Wait for the add operation.

When the end button 49 for ending the change, deletion, and addition is clicked in R26, the cafeteria plan table 23 is stored in the work memory using the cafeteria plan setting data set on the setting menu screen 42. 41. That is, each remaining point is set as a registration point, and each used point is set to 0 (R27). The created cafeteria plan table 23 is written into the memory 18 of the ID card 13 being inserted. Specifically, the cafeteria plan table 23 in the memory 18 is updated with the newly created cafeteria plan table 23 (R28).

Then, the new cafeteria plan table 23 is written and the ID card 13 is ejected (R2
9). Further, the newly created cafeteria plan table 23 is transmitted to the server 1 together with the employee number 20 stored in the card information memory 39 (S30).

In FIG. 1, each facility terminal 7 installed in a stand 6, a cafeteria 8, a dormitory 9, and each facility 12 has a point designated by a menu using the facility by the employee. In addition, the amount is reduced from the remaining points of the corresponding registration menu in the cafeteria plan table 23 stored in the ID card 13 and the updated information of the remaining points is transmitted to the server 1.

Further, the data processing unit 24 of the server 1 in FIG. 3 performs an updating process on the cafeteria plan DB 28 according to the flowchart shown in FIG. Each setting terminal 5
When the cafeteria plan table 23 specifying the employee number 20 is input (S1), the cafeteria plan table 23 of the corresponding employee number in the cafeteria plan DB 28 of the storage unit 26 is updated with the input cafeteria plan table 23 (S2). .

Further, the employee number 20 is input from each facility terminal 7.
When the user inputs a request for updating the remaining points and used points specifying the registration menu (S3), the remaining points and usage of the corresponding registration menu in the cafeteria plan table 23 of the corresponding worker number in the cafeteria plan DB 28 of the storage unit 26. The updated points are updated (S4).

Further, for example, when the employee of the welfare department in charge of the operation inputs a totaling instruction at the end of one fiscal year (S5), each registration stored in the cafeteria plan DB 28 shown in FIG. The results of the used points in the menu are totaled (S6). More specifically, the "single men", "single women"
For each benefit type 22 of "married men" and "married women"
Each employee belonging to the pertinent welfare type 22 statistically totals which item 27b of which category 27a of the menu master table 27 has actually been used and writes it to the usage result statistical information memory 32.

As described above, in the cafeteria plan table 23 for each employee constituting the cafeteria plan DB 28 formed in the storage unit 26 of the server 1 installed in the welfare section of the company or organization, The latest cafeteria plan and the implementation status of this cafeteria plan are always stored. Therefore, the employee in the welfare section can easily and in real time know the cafeteria plan that each employee has set using the setting terminal 5 and the implementation status of this cafeteria plan.

Further, at the start of the new fiscal year, each employee arbitrarily sets his or her benefit cafeteria plan using the setting terminal 5 as a cafeteria plan setting device provided in his or her workplace. You can arbitrarily change, delete or add each registration menu and each registration point of the previous year's cafeteria plan.

The remaining points of each menu, which could not be used in the previous year, can be carried over to the next year up to 1/2 of the upper limit point.

In this case, in the setting terminal 5, a representative registration menu and a cafeteria plan including registration points statistically obtained for each benefit type 22 and employee category 21 are initially set as an initial setting table 33. Setting memory 3
1 is stored. When the employee newly sets a cafeteria plan at the setting terminal 5, the initial setting data of the cafeteria plan optimal for the welfare type 22 and the employee category 21 to which the employee belongs is a setting menu screen shown in FIG. 42 data input areas 455, 4
Displayed at 6, 47.

Accordingly, the employee looks at the setting menu screen 42 and, if the displayed statistically determined representative cafeteria plan is acceptable, clicks the setting end button 49 on the setting menu screen 42 as it is. You only need to do it. In addition, the section 27a and the item 27b of the registered menu in the displayed representative cafeteria plan are displayed.
Alternatively, if the user wants to change the registration point, the user can click the arrow of the corresponding data input area 45, 46, or 47 to display the target section 27a, item 27b, or registration point.

When the cafeteria plan for the previous year is updated, the cafeteria plan for the previous year can be updated in the same manner by first displaying the cafeteria plan for the previous year on the setting menu screen 42. Therefore, since each employee does not need to input characters of the new registration menu section 27a and item 27b using a keyboard or the like, the operability of the setting terminal 5 can be greatly improved.

As described above, since each employee can easily set his or her own cafeteria plan at each setting terminal 5 installed in the workplace, the probability that each employee will abandon the input operation of his or her own cafeteria plan on the way. And the reliability and stability of the cafeteria plan management system can be improved.

A representative registration menu statistically obtained and a cafeteria plan including registration points are displayed on the setting menu screen 42 as initial data (default data).
It is displayed as. There is a high probability that the employee does not have to change the registered menu and the registered points that do not have a clear request, especially if there is a particularly strong desire for the division 27a, the item 27b, and the registered points. Therefore, compared to the case where the employee inputs all registration menus and registration points, the statistics for the registration menu and registration points intended by the welfare department are more likely to be obtained. Budget management (point distribution) is easy.

As described above, by having each employee input his / her own cafe plan using the setting terminal 5, the setting terminal 5 can be used not only by each employee but also by a staff member of the welfare section. The convenience of the built-in cafeteria plan management system can be greatly improved.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. In the system of the embodiment, the cafeteria plan table 23 is written in the ID card 13 owned by each employee. However, it is also possible to store only the card number 19, the employee number 20, the employee class 21, and the welfare type 22 in the ID card 13.

In this case, when the server 1 updates its own cafeteria plan DB 28, the server 1 immediately sets each terminal 5
Then, the cafeteria plan DB 28 is downloaded to each facility terminal 7, and the latest cafeteria plan DB 28 is constantly stored and held in each setting terminal 5 and each facility terminal 7. Therefore, each setting terminal 5 and each facility terminal 7 can specify the cafeteria plan table 23 of the corresponding employee only by reading the employee number 20 from the inserted ID card 13. Therefore, it is possible to obtain substantially the same operation and effect as the above-described embodiment system.

[0073]

As described above, in the cafeteria plan setting device according to the present invention, each employee is caused to plan a cafeteria plan relating to welfare, and this feteria plan is input using the setting menu screen.

Therefore, each employee can input the cafeteria plan created by himself / herself by simple operation, and the department in charge of the welfare can increase the cafeteria of each employee without increasing the administrative burden of the staff. The plan can be grasped, and the convenience of the cafeteria plan management system incorporating the cafeteria plan setting device can be greatly improved.
