Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
An information processing system to which the present invention is applied can be used in a service that provides various kinds of support for users regarding their jobs, taking into consideration not only the present but also a long period of time, for example, ten years or more from the past to the future.
Hereinafter, the information processing system of one embodiment of the present invention will be described as being used in a service (hereinafter referred to as "this service") whose users are women with children (hereinafter referred to as "mothers"), as an example of such a service.
In other words, this service provides support to the mother that is tailored to her lifestyle, which changes as her child grows.

First, before explaining an information processing system according to one embodiment of the present invention, an overview of this service will be explained with reference to Figures 1 to 3.

Figure 1 is a diagram explaining an overview of this service that is realized by applying an information processing system according to one embodiment of the present invention.

In Fig. 1, a series of multiple white arrows in the horizontal direction indicate the long-term changes in the lifestyle of the mother, who is a user of this service, over a period of more than 10 years from the past to the future. In other words, each of the multiple white arrows indicates one life event. The text inside each white arrow describes the name of the life event that the white arrow indicates.
Specifically, for mothers who are users of this service, Figure 1 shows how, starting from the past (before having children and becoming a mother), each of the life events of "employment,""marriage,""pregnancy,""childbirth,""child-rearing," and "graduating from motherhood" occurs in that order.

Here, the multiple small white arrows shown in the "child-rearing" life event indicate the stages of a child's development. In other words, FIG. 1 shows that a mother's "child-rearing" lifestyle needs to be divided into stages for each stage of a child's development. More specifically, as written as the characters inside the small white arrows, FIG. 1 shows that a mother's "child-rearing" lifestyle needs to be considered by dividing it into stages in one-year increments from "0 years old" to "5 years old," the "elementary school student" stage, and the "junior high school student, high school student, and university student" stages.
The small white arrows showing the child's "junior high school, high school, and college" stage are shown across the mother's "child-rearing" and "graduated mother" life events. This means that for the mother, who is the user of this service, the life event of "child-rearing" ends halfway through the child's "junior high school, high school, and college" stage, and transitions to the next life event of "graduated mother."
In the latter half of the mother's "graduated mother" life event, a small white arrow with "caregiving" written inside is shown. This small white arrow indicates the stage at which the mother cares for her parents (including her own parents and her husband's parents). In other words, Figure 1 shows that in the latter half of the mother's "graduated mother" life event, it is necessary to consider the stage of "caregiving" for parents.

For mothers who develop multiple lifestyles like this one after another, this service can provide each of the three support SUP1 to SUP3 shown in Figure 1.

Support SUP1 shows an example of support given to mothers whose children are in the infant stage before entering elementary school, that is, in the stages from "0 years old" to "5 years old", among the life events of "child rearing".
Each of the multiple frames drawn within the dotted line indicating the support SUP1 indicates a specific support represented by a character string inside. Note that, hereinafter, the support of each of these multiple frames will be described using only the character string inside each frame.
As shown in Figure 1, the support SUP1 mainly includes "Support for working near children." This "Support for working near children" is composed of four supports: "Mama Square (registered trademark),""Watching and childcare,""FC," and "Short-term dispatch."

"Support for working near children" included in Support SUP1 refers to the following support.
That is, in the past, mothers with infants and young children would usually work and leave their children in daycare centers or kindergartens.
However, the number of children who can be admitted to a nursery school is limited. Also, while the number of children who can be admitted to a kindergarten is not limited, there is an age limit for admission. For this reason, many mothers who have children who cannot be admitted to a nursery school or kindergarten, i.e., mothers with children aged 0 to 3 years, are unable to work as they would like because they have children. Furthermore, many mothers who wish to enroll their children in a kindergarten or nursery school would like to work in an environment where they can watch their children when necessary, rather than simply enrolling their children in a nursery school or kindergarten, but the current situation is such that such a request cannot be fully met.
In order to improve this situation, this service can provide various types of support to mothers with infants and young children, so that they can work without having to send their children to a nursery school or kindergarten, and can stay in an environment where they can watch over them when necessary. This type of support is called "support for working near children."

"Mama Square," one of the components of "support for working near children," is the following support: "Mama Square" is a method of support in which multiple mothers with infant children are divided into mothers who do desk work and mothers who do work that involves watching over and childcare, and they work in the same workspace.
The work, including so-called desk work, is composed of one or more tasks from other companies that are comprehensively entrusted to the provider of this service (hereinafter referred to as the "service provider"). Each of the mothers who perform the work, including so-called desk work, performs at least a part of the one or more tasks from other companies as their own work, working in shifts without being bound to other companies.
In addition, the so-called jobs that include watching over and childcare are jobs that involve watching over and childcare for children that accompany mothers who work at Mama Square. Each of the multiple mothers who do so-called jobs that include watching over and childcare is responsible for watching over and childcare for the children that accompany both the above-mentioned "multiple mothers who do so-called desk work" and the "mothers who do so-called jobs that include watching over and childcare."
A more detailed description of Mama Square will be provided below.

"Monitoring and childcare," one component of "supporting working near children," is the following type of support. That is, as mentioned above, many mothers whose children cannot enter nursery school are unable to work as they would like. For this reason, facilities that undertake "monitoring and childcare" near companies, or nurseries are established within companies, and mothers whose children cannot enter nursery school are referred to work there. "Monitoring and childcare" is support provided to such facilities by contracting out their operations (providing personnel and know-how).

One "FC" that constitutes "support for working near children" is the following support. That is, for example, the service provider enters into a franchise (hereafter abbreviated as "FC") contract with another company and provides the above-mentioned Mama Square signboard and operation know-how. The other company itself regards the mothers it employs as "mothers who do so-called desk work" and provides the same support as Mama Square in an environment that the other company itself provides. In that case, the mothers employed by the service provider are "mothers who do so-called monitoring and childcare". In other words, the service provider is entrusted with the operation of the "monitoring and childcare" space. In other words, "FC" is the support that another company other than the service provider incorporates the above-mentioned Mama Square system into its own company and provides a place for monitoring and childcare by treating the mothers employed by the company itself as "mothers who do so-called desk work".

One of the components of "supporting working near children" is "short-time dispatching," which is the following type of support. That is, as mentioned above, many mothers who have children who cannot enter nursery schools are unable to work as they wish. Therefore, facilities that undertake "childcare" near companies, or nursery schools within companies are established, and mothers who cannot enter nursery schools are brokered and dispatched to the dispatch destination as temporary employees. On the other hand, among mothers who do not leave their children in nursery schools or mothers who have children in kindergartens, there are many who wish to work short hours under the constraints of time contracts and being within the range of support. In other words, such mothers wish to work so-called "short hours." For this reason, service providers provide dispatch destinations that will accept them even for short hours, or combine short-time work and provide it to the dispatch destination. In other words, "short-time dispatching" is support provided by providing mothers with "dispatch" work or "short-time" work (so-called reduced hours work). In addition, in this case, the service provider is not limited to the function of simply being a dispatching source, but can also have the function of accepting the operation of childcare facilities.
By offering this type of "short-term dispatch" to mothers, even mothers who find it difficult to work near their children can enjoy an environment where they can work alongside their children, and mothers who want to work efficiently while their children are at kindergarten can work while ensuring that they have time to interact with their children.

Support SUP2 shows an example of support provided to mothers whose children are in the stage of entering elementary school and becoming children or students, that is, in the stage of "elementary school student,""junior high school student,""high school student," or "university student," among other life events of "child-rearing."
Each of the multiple frames drawn within the dotted line indicating the support SUP 2 indicates a specific support represented by the character string inside. Note that, hereinafter, the support of each of these multiple frames will be described using only the character string inside each of them.
As shown in Figure 1, Support SUP2 mainly includes "Supporting mothers'careers." This "Supporting mothers'careers" is composed of three supports: "Human resource services,""Education and training period," and "After-school care."

"Supporting mothers'careers" included in Support SUP2 refers to the following support.
In other words, in the past, mothers with children who had entered elementary school were no longer required to spend all their time with their children, and were able to have more time to work.
However, many mothers who get married or give birth have to quit their previous jobs and have to look for new jobs.Moreover, mothers want to utilize their previous work experience to build a second career and work, but the current situation is such that such requests cannot be fully met.
In order to improve this situation, this service can provide various kinds of support to mothers with children who have entered elementary school, so that they can work based on the skills and careers they have acquired in previous jobs, as well as the careers the mothers themselves wish to pursue. This type of support is called "Supporting Mothers'Careers."

One of the "human resource services" that make up "Supporting mothers' careers" is the following type of support. In other words, the "human resource service" is support provided by sending mothers with children who have entered elementary school to "general companies" or "daycare centers, etc."

Dispatching to "general companies" consists of three types of dispatch: "Mom dispatch,""Education/training + mom dispatch," and "Community monitoring + mom dispatch."
"Mom Dispatch" is a form of dispatch in which a service provider matches mothers who wish to register with the service provider with a general company, and then introduces or brokers the mother to the general company with which a match has been made.
"Education/Training + Mother Dispatch" is a type of dispatch in which the service provider provides support as an "education/training institution" (described below) in advance or in parallel with the "mother dispatch" mentioned above, depending on the mother's suitability based on her desired career path and past performance, etc.
"Community monitoring + mom dispatch" is a type of dispatch in which the service provider adds to the "mom dispatch" mentioned above by providing support in the form of community monitoring by "after-school care workers," which will be described later, based on the mother's own desired career, etc.

Dispatch to "daycare centers, etc." is a form of dispatch in which the service provider, based on the mother's desired career and past performance, for example, encourages an unqualified mother to obtain a childcare worker qualification, and then dispatches the mother to a childcare facility such as a daycare center as a childcare worker. In addition, when "dispatch to daycare centers, etc.", the service provider also provides support as an "educational and training institution," which will be described later.

Service providers can develop human resource businesses to provide "human resource services" consisting of these types of dispatch work.

The "educational and training institutions" that make up "Supporting mothers'careers" are the following types of support: In other words, "educational and training institutions" provide support to mothers who wish to build their careers by providing education in line with the needs of the times, as well as personal computers (hereafter abbreviated as "PCs"), IT-related qualifications, and by coordinating with educational and training institutions for obtaining the above-mentioned childcare worker qualifications.
As shown in Figure 1, the "educational and training institutions" included in the support SUP2 are implemented appropriately according to the mother's abilities and thoughts on career formation. For example, in preparation for receiving support from the above-mentioned "human resource services," after the mother has started working and has the time to think about her own career, she can receive career counseling as necessary and then receive support from the "educational and training institutions."
Service providers can develop education and training businesses to provide such "educational and training institutions."

"After-school care," one of the components of "Supporting mothers'careers," is the following support: "After-school care" is support for mothers who wish to build their careers but are not at home during the day, by providing a place for their children (elementary school children) to play and live after elementary school classes are over, and by providing childcare (providing so-called after-school care).
For example, a mother who wants to work full-time until the evening may have her working hours limited because her child returns home before the end of her evening shift. Conversely, mothers have a desire to use after-school care facilities that look after their elementary school-aged children until they return home. Furthermore, mothers have a desire for their children to study by doing homework, etc., while spending their time at after-school care facilities, but the current situation is such that such a desire cannot be fully met. Some mothers also have a desire to continue working while watching over their children even after they enter elementary school. Therefore, as a support to meet the needs of such mothers, "after-school care" is provided by service providers. Furthermore, service providers can employ mothers who leave their children at "after-school care" as "multiple mothers who do so-called desk work, etc." and can accept mothers who wish to work at "after-school care.""After-schoolcare," where local children gather, is a support that contributes to watching over the local area, and is also a support for mothers who have children in elementary school or above and wish to work near their children.

Support SUP3 shows an example of support given to a mother during the mother's life events from "pregnancy" to "caregiving."
Each of the multiple frames drawn within the dotted line indicating the support SUP 3 indicates a specific support represented by the character string inside. Note that, hereinafter, the support of each of these multiple frames will be described using only the character string inside each frame.
As shown in Figure 1, Support SUP3 mainly includes "Supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind." This "Supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind" is composed of three types of support: "Initiatives with pharmaceutical companies,""Product development (protecting family safety, IoT technology, wearable devices, etc.)," and "Grassroots movements to change the world."

The "support for creating an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind" included in Support SUP3 refers to the following support:
In other words, in the past, mothers had various anxieties about working as mothers throughout the entire lifestyle, from pregnancy, through childbirth, and child-rearing, to graduation from motherhood.
Therefore, this service can provide various kinds of support to remove the anxiety of mothers who want to work and enable them to work with peace of mind throughout their lifestyle. This kind of support is called "Support for creating an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind."

One of the "Initiatives with Pharmaceutical Companies" that constitutes "Supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind" is the following support. In other words, in anticipation of the Society 5.0 era, it will be important to build a system that acquires individual data, analyzes big data with AI, and based on that data, returns the necessary information to individuals through IoT, including smartphones and wearable devices. However, in the past, it was not possible to collect end-to-end data on the life course attributes of mothers and children because mothers were reluctant to give out their children's information. Therefore, in collaboration with pharmaceutical companies, a system was built to list mothers from the pregnancy stage, and data was accumulated in a database, and data on children and mothers was collected from around 1 year old, providing support toward Society 5.0, which is the "Initiatives with Pharmaceutical Companies."
Service providers can develop healthcare businesses to provide "initiatives with pharmaceutical companies" as part of "supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind."

"Product development (protecting family safety, IoT technology, wearable devices, etc.)" is one of the components of "Supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind" and is the following type of support:
In the past, working mothers were sometimes worried about whether something was wrong with their children or families. Therefore, facilities and devices that allow mothers to check the status of their children and families, such as monitoring and childcare facilities, after-school care facilities, and children's mobile phones with GPS (Global Positioning System) functions, have been prepared. However, these facilities and devices are not sufficient for mothers to understand the status of their children and families (including the mother herself or her husband's parents who are caring for them), and conversely, there is a demand to obtain information in various ways. In order to meet such demands, support is provided by developing products such as wearable devices using IoT technology to protect the safety of families, which is called "product development (protecting family safety, IoT technology, wearable devices, etc.)". As mentioned above, it is important to have a mechanism for returning life course data through wearable devices as a source of collection and a destination of analysis data for Society 5.0. It is therefore important to design how to collect data on the "family" - that is, the mother, the child, the child's father (the mother's husband), the mother's own parents, and the husband's parents.
Service providers can launch development businesses (Mom's Lab) to provide "product development (protecting family safety, IoT technology, wearable devices, etc.)".

One of the "grassroots movements to change the world" that constitutes "Supporting the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind" is the following support. Traditionally, there has been a social problem of morning and evening rush hours. On the other hand, there have been reported incidents where mothers who bring baby strollers onto trains during morning or evening rush hours have been yelled at. In other words, for mothers who work in workplaces with childcare facilities, the mere act of heading to work with their children during the rush hour was a cause for concern. In other words, there was a demand to create public opinion that supports mothers raising children and to take fundamental measures to prevent the above-mentioned social problems from occurring. In response to such demands, support is provided by lobbying for the introduction of childcare cars on trains that mothers with children can easily use, which is the "grassroots movement to change the world (childcare support cars on subways)."
Service providers can develop education and training programs to provide a "grassroots movement for world change."

In addition, although not shown in the figure, in order to "support the creation of an environment where mothers can work with peace of mind," the service provider also provides the following support to prevent the occurrence of family members who require care. In the past, it was sometimes difficult for mothers to find time to work because they had to care for their parents (including not only their own parents but also their husband's parents). Therefore, the service provider also provides support such as nursing care prevention to prevent the occurrence of family members who require care.
By implementing this type of support, service providers can develop preventive care projects to prevent family members from becoming dependent on care.

Next, three systems for realizing this service will be briefly explained with reference to FIG. 2 and FIG.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an overview of various systems that can be applied to the present service of FIG.
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the relationships between the various systems in FIG.

As mentioned above, the users of this service are typically mothers with children. This service provides such mothers with a variety of services to help them solve various work-related issues, such as the content of work and working style, in accordance with the growth of their children and the situation at home.
The first to third services described below are representative examples of support services for mothers, and this service can comprehensively provide a variety of services including the first to third services.

The first service is a service to build and provide a database (hereinafter, simply called "Mamask DB") with the objective of "providing the foundation for various systems that take into account past, present, and future information and the future of mothers and children." The system applied in the first service is called "Mamask DB System SYS1."
In the first service, in order to achieve the goal of "providing the foundation for various systems that include information on the past, present, and future, and take into account the future of the mother and child," various information is acquired to build a database, which can be used to provide various services, including the second and third services described below.
That is, in the first service, the user can have various information about himself/herself and his/her children comprehensively managed in the Mamask DB, and can receive various services using this information. As described below, the Mamask DB stores not only the user's own information, but also various information related to "mothers," such as information about the user's work and information about the child. Therefore, the user can receive various services that take into account the child's growth and home environment, which are inseparable from the position of "mother."
Details of the various information stored in the MASK DB and the MASK DB system SYS1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

The second service is aimed at "providing a shift management system suitable for working mothers who are raising children."
That is, the shift management system SYS2 applied in the second service is a service providing a system related to attendance management (hereinafter referred to as "shift"). Specifically, for example, the shift management system SYS2 is a system that appropriately manages the shifts of a user so that the user can easily manage attendance and work even if the user is a mother raising a child.
Furthermore, the shift management system SYS2 can create a shift in which the mother who can produce the best results is assigned based on the characteristics of the case and the mother's past results (history). In addition, the shift management system SYS2 can adjust the number of staff involved in so-called "monitoring and childcare" as necessary based on the information on the children associated with the assigned mother. In other words, the shift management system SYS2 makes it possible to operate a safe monitoring space while maximizing the results of the case. In other words, by using the shift management system SYS2 in the second service, the user can enable "mothers" to easily and conveniently manage their attendance, and the service provider can maximize the results of the case and ensure the safety of the space for watching over children.
Details will be described with reference to Figs. 12 to 19, but the working schedule of a "mother" who is raising a child and working is inevitably different from that of a worker who is not a "mother". For example, if a user has a small child, the user must take care of that child, and if the user has multiple children, the user must pick up the children other than the one being taken care of. For this reason, the second service employs a shift management system to appropriately manage shifts while taking into account the unique circumstances of such "mothers" and the characteristics of each "child".

The third service is a service aimed at "providing a matching service for a mother who is a user with a company that takes into consideration the future, such as the mother's career development and the growth of her children." The system applied in the third service is called a "matching system SYS3."
The matching system SYS3 in the third service can match users seeking employment with companies while taking into consideration the development of children, family circumstances, etc.
That is, in the third service, the user can receive job matching results that take into consideration not only the user's own information, but also information about the user's children, home environment, and the like.
The important point here is that the Mamask DB in the first service described above stores not only information about current users and their children, but also past information and predicted future information, and the third service provides a matching system SYS3 that takes into account the various information stored in this Mamask DB.
Details of the matching system SYS3 will be described later with reference to Figures 20 to 25. In this way, the first to third services do not necessarily need to be provided independently, and may be provided in association with the user's lifestyle, for example.

In FIG. 3, the upper part shows a typical mother's lifestyle, and the lower part shows the relationships between the various systems shown in FIG.
First, a mother's lifestyle will be described in the case where she has a child from "0 years old" to "5 years old."
Mothers with children at this age need to look after them constantly. For this reason, when mothers with children at this age consider entering the workforce, various problems arise, such as "how will I look after my children?" and "what will I do if my children suddenly become ill?" In the past, there were many mothers who could not realistically overcome such problems and had no choice but to choose not to enter the workforce.
The above-mentioned first and second services are widely used by users so that they can overcome such problems and find employment. That is, for users with children between the ages of "0" and "5", there are actually needs for working styles such as wanting to leave their children with someone else and wanting to work while working short shifts or flexibly responding to accidents, and it is important that these needs are met. The above-mentioned first and second services are the services that can meet such needs.
Support for users with children between the ages of "0" and "5" is so-called "As-Is" support, and is the primary focus of this service.

Next, we will explain the lifestyle of a mother who has children in elementary school or older.
Mothers with children in this age no longer need to constantly look after their children, and can work relatively freely. However, mothers with children in this age are usually of a certain age, and often have problems finding the job they want, depending on their career and work history. In particular, as mentioned above, the environment is very difficult for mothers to work in when their children are between "0" and "5 years old," and users who do not find work during this period will have a gap in their career, making it even more difficult for them to find work. Furthermore, for mothers who give birth to a second or third child, the gap in their career will be considerable.
In order to overcome such problems and enable the user to find a job, the second and third services described above are utilized by the user.

In addition, with this service, various information about the present, past, and future (future plans, etc.) of users with children is stored and accumulated, for example, in a Mommask DB. The third service is provided based on such long-term accumulated information, making it possible to realize optimal matching for users.

In summary, as part of the service, the provider of this service will provide various services, primarily the first to third services, as appropriate, to suit the lifestyles of users with children, for example.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, a brief description will be given of an example of the configuration of an information processing system that can be applied to the above-mentioned first to third services among the present services, that is, an information processing system according to one embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a configuration of an information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The information processing system shown in FIG. 4 is configured by connecting a database management server 1, a mother mask DB 2, a shift management server 3, a matching server 4, a manager terminal 5, mother terminals 6-1 through 6-n (n is an integer equal to or greater than 1), and company terminals 7-1 through 7-m (m is an integer equal to or greater than 1) to each other via a predetermined network N such as the Internet.

In this embodiment, the database management server 1, the mom mask DB 2, the shift management server 3, the matching server 4, and the manager terminal 5 are managed by the service provider M of this service. In other words, the service provider M is the business entity that provides this service. However, the term "management" as used here refers not only to direct management by the service provider M itself, but also to indirect management, such as by entrusting management to another party, such as a server operating company.

In addition, in providing this service, the service provider M is responsible for coordinating with mothers who use this service and companies that provide work. The service provider M uses the administrator terminal 5 when inputting and outputting information in the course of work related to coordinating with mothers who use this service and companies that provide work.

The mother terminals 6-1 to 6-n are used by the mothers U1-1 to U1-n, who are users of this service. However, hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between the mothers U1-1 to U1-n and the mother terminals 6-1 to 6-n, they will be referred to as "mother U1" and "mother terminal 6", respectively.

Furthermore, each of the corporate terminals 7-1 to 7-m is used by a corporate employee U2-1 to U2-m who belongs to a company and is a user of this service. However, hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between the corporate employees U2-1 to U2-m and the corporate terminals 7-1 to 7-m, they will be referred to as "corporate employee U2" and "corporate terminal 7", respectively.

Removable media 21, such as a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a magneto-optical disk, or a semiconductor memory, is appropriately loaded into the drive 20. A program read from the removable media 21 by the drive 20 is installed in the storage unit 18 as necessary.
Further, the removable medium 21 can store various data stored in the storage unit 18 in the same manner as the storage unit 18 .

Although not shown, the shift management server 3, matching server 4, manager terminal 5, mother terminal 6, and company terminal 7 of the information processing system in FIG. 5 have basically the same hardware configuration as that shown in FIG. 6. Therefore, a description of the hardware configuration of the shift management server 3, matching server 4, manager terminal 5, mother terminal 6, and company terminal 7 will be omitted.

The functional configuration of the database management server 1 shown in FIG. 7 will be described below using a specific example of various information managed by the database management server 1 shown in FIG.
FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram illustrating an example of the functional configuration of the database management server of FIG.
FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of various information included in the MASK DB managed by the database management server of FIG.

For simplicity's sake, in the explanation of Figure 7, it will be assumed that there is only one mother's terminal 6 and one company's terminal 7.

In the CPU 11, when the execution of the storage process of the first service, i.e., the service that constructs and provides a mother mask DB, is controlled, the mother information acquisition unit 111, the child information acquisition unit 112, the storage unit 113, and the quantification evaluation unit 114 function.

The mother information acquisition unit 111 acquires various information regarding the job of the mother U1.
Here, the mother information acquisition section 111 is provided with a mother invariant information acquisition section 121 and a mother variable information acquisition section 122 .

The mother invariant information acquisition unit 121 acquires information on the occupation of the mother U1 that cannot be changed by the mother U1 as the mother invariant information DMI.
Here, the mother invariant information DMI refers to objective information about the mother U1 that cannot be changed by the will or thoughts of the mother U1.

The mother unchanging information acquisition unit 121 includes a mother resume information acquisition unit 131 and a mother company input information acquisition unit 132.

The mother resume information acquisition unit 131 acquires various information related to the resume of the mother U1 as mother resume information DMIB, which is a type of mother immutable information DMI.
The mother's resume information DMIB is various information that is usually written on a resume, such as the mother U1's profile, work history, and qualifications. This information is typically input by the mother U1 herself via the mother's terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the mother's resume information acquisition unit 131 acquires various information related to the resume of the mother U1 transmitted from the mother terminal 6 as mother's resume information DMIB.

Here, an example of the contents of the mother's resume information DMIB will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
In the example of Fig. 8, the specific contents of the mother's resume information DMIB are shown as four items: "Name, Date of Birth, Blood Type,""Work History (Occupation, Working Condition, Position, Years of Experience),""Qualifications," and "Annual Household Income." In other words, the resume information is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1, and includes, for example, various information related to the career of the mother U1.

The mother's resume information DMIB is basically entered when the mother U1 uses this service for the first time (at the time of registration). Furthermore, the content contained in the mother's resume information DMIB is not normally rewritten by the mother U1 except in cases of clerical errors, etc., and therefore becomes the mother's immutable information DMI. Information such as the employment history and qualifications acquired by the mother U1 after she begins using this service is acquired as the mother's company input information DMIC, etc., which will be described later.

The mother's company input information acquisition unit 132 acquires various information about the mother U1 at the company where the mother U1 works as mother's company input information DMIC, which is a type of mother invariant information DMI.
The mother's company input information DMIC is various information related to the mother U1's job, such as the personnel evaluation and attendance status of the mother U1 at the company where the mother U1 works, that can be input by the company where the mother U1 works. This information is typically input by a person in charge at the company or a provider of this service, and is transmitted from the company terminal 7 to the server 1.
Therefore, the mother company input information acquisition unit 132 acquires various information related to the mother U1 at the company where the mother U1 works, transmitted from the company terminal 7, as the mother company input information DMIC. The mother company input information acquisition unit 132 may acquire the mother company input information DMIC via the administrator terminal 5 based on the input of the service provider M.

Here, an example of the contents of the mother company input information DMIC will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
8, five items are shown as specific contents of the mother company input information DMIC: "Personnel evaluation score,""Project KPI achievement status,""Work attendance status,""Promotion, salary increase, and advancement data," and "Training provided by the company." In other words, the mother company input information DMIC is information among the mother invariant information DMI that includes, for example, various information related to evaluations from companies, etc., regarding the job of mother U1.
In addition, this information may be input to the company terminal 7 periodically by a person in charge at the company, for example, when a personnel evaluation is conducted at the company.

In contrast to the mother invariant information acquisition unit 121, the mother variable information acquisition unit 122 acquires information that can be changed by the mother U1 in relation to the mother U1's occupation as mother variable information DMM.
Here, the mother variable information DMM refers to subjective information about the mother U1 that can change according to the mother U1's will and thoughts. Note that among objective information such as newly acquired qualifications, qualifications acquired by the mother's will may also be included in the mother variable information DMM.

The mother variable information acquisition unit 122 includes a mother base information acquisition unit 141, a mother career development information acquisition unit 142, and a mother mindset information acquisition unit 143.

The mother base information acquisition unit 141 acquires information including information such as the job and workplace preferences of the mother U1 in the future as mother base information DMMB, which is one type of mother variable information DMM.
The mother base information DMMB is, for example, various information related to the employment conditions that the mother U1 herself would like to work under, the location conditions of the workplace, etc. Typically, this information is input by the mother U1 herself via the mother terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the mother base information acquisition unit 141 acquires information including information such as the job and workplace preferences of the mother U1 that are to be worked in the future, transmitted from the mother terminal 6, as the mother base information DMMB.

As before, an example of the contents of the mother base information DMMB will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
In the example of Fig. 8, the specific contents of the mother-based information DMMB are shown as four items, namely, "Dependent or non-dependent,""Whether or not the mother wishes to enroll in a nursery school,""Available work area," and "Available work hours." In other words, the mother-based information is information that can be changed by the mother U1, for example, information that contributes to the mother U1's choice of job and work system, and includes various information that can easily change depending on the mother U1's will and the surrounding circumstances (the circumstances of her husband and children).

The mother career development information acquisition unit 142 acquires information including information such as what kind of work mother U1 wants to do in the future, what qualifications she wants to obtain for that, and any new qualifications she has actually obtained, as mother career development information DMMC, a type of mother variable information DMM.
The mother's career development information DMMC is, for example, various information related to the mother U1's own future career development aspirations. This information is typically input by the mother U1 herself via the mother's terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the mother career development information acquisition unit 142 acquires various information regarding the future career development aspirations of the mother U1 herself transmitted from the mother terminal 6 as mother career development information DMMC.

An example of the contents of the mother's career development information DMMC will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
8, two items, "newly acquired qualifications" and "future hopes (job type, working style, place of work, etc.)," are shown as specific contents of the mother career development information DMMC. In other words, the mother career development information DMMC includes, among information that can be changed by the mother U1, various information related to the future career development of the mother U1, for example.

The mother's thinking information acquisition unit 143 acquires information on what kind of thinking the mother U1 has based on information input by the mother U1 herself, as mother's thinking information DMMT, a type of mother's variable information DMM.
The mother's thinking information DMMT is, for example, various information related to the answers of the mother U1 to a predetermined questionnaire, etc. The mother's thinking information DMMT may include information on the thinking of the mother U1 that has been processed or evaluated based on a predetermined questionnaire, etc. These pieces of information are typically input by the mother U1 herself via the mother's terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the mother's thinking information acquisition unit 143 acquires the mother's thinking information DMMT based on the information of the questionnaire responses transmitted from the mother's terminal 6. The mother U1 may be able to directly input the mother's thinking information DMMT.

An example of the contents of the mother's thinking information DMMT will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
In the example of FIG. 8, five items, namely, "celebrity type,""organictype,""career woman type,""balancedtype," and "family first type," are shown as specific contents of the mother thinking information DMMT.
Here, the lifestyle-related thinking items can be freely adopted by providers of this service, but each thinking ability will be briefly explained below.
The "celebrity type" is a type of mindset regarding work and life. Users classified as the celebrity type tend to spend a lot of money, and would prefer to work in a nice office in a city, for example.
The "organic type" is a type of mindset regarding work and life. Users classified as organic types tend to spend relatively little money, and are interested in the social compliance of the companies they work for (taking care of the environment, taking care of the work environment, etc.).
The "career type" is a type of mindset regarding work. Users who are classified as career type tend to have a strong desire to work, prefer jobs that allow them to make the most of their skills and abilities, and tend to place less importance on family life than on work, and would be happy to supplement their role as a mother by outsourcing some of it.
The "balanced type" is a type of mindset mainly regarding work. Users classified as the balanced type tend to have a good balance between work and family. That is, users in this category cannot tolerate overtime work until late at night, but are likely to tolerate moderate overtime work if it is for valuable work.
The "family first type" is a type of mindset regarding work. Users who are classified as family first tend to not tolerate overtime, for example, as a rule. In such cases, the presence or absence of overtime can be a very important condition for the user when choosing a job.

To summarize, the mother variable information acquisition unit 122 acquires information including the mother base information DMMB acquired by the mother base information acquisition unit 141, the mother career development information DMMC acquired by the mother career development information acquisition unit 142, and the mother thinking information DMMT acquired by the mother thinking information acquisition unit 143 as mother variable information DMM.
As described above, the mother base information DMMB, the mother career formation information DMMC, and the mother mindset information DMMT are information related to the mother's future hopes and the nature of her thoughts. This information should be input by the mother U1 herself, or should be extracted by asking the mother U1 herself, or by a questionnaire or the like. In other words, the mother base information DMMB, the mother career formation information DMMC, and the mother mindset information DMMT are treated as mother variable information DMM because they can be changed by the mother U1.

As described above, the mother information acquisition unit 111 acquires the mother information by combining the mother immutable information DMI and the mother variable information DMM.

The child information acquisition unit 112 acquires various information related to the child of the mother U1.
Here, the child information acquisition unit 112 is provided with a child immutable information acquisition unit 151 and a child variable information acquisition unit 152 .

The child immutable information acquisition unit 151 acquires, from among information relating to a mother's child, information that cannot be changed by the mother UI or the child as child immutable information DKI.
Here, the child invariant information DKI refers to objective information, among information about the mother U1's child, that cannot be changed by the will or thoughts of the mother U1 or her child.

The child unchanging information acquisition unit 151 includes a child basic information acquisition unit 161 and a child company input information acquisition unit 162.

The child basic information acquisition unit 161 acquires various basic information about the mother U1's own child as child basic information DKIB, which is one type of child immutable information DKI.
The child basic information DKIB is various basic information about the child, such as the mother U1's own child profile and information about childcare (monitoring and care). This information is typically input by the mother U1 herself via the mother terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the child basic information acquisition unit 161 acquires various basic information about the mother U1's own child transmitted from the mother terminal 6 as child basic information DKIB.

An example of the contents of the child basic information DKIB will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
8, three items are shown as specific contents of the child basic information DKIB: "Name, Date of Birth, Blood Type,""Basic Data (Height, Weight, Allergies)," and "Childcare Data (Time of Weaning, Medical History, Current Medical History, Presence or Absence of Allergies, Characteristics, What Mother U1 Can Do, What Mother U1 Can't Do)." In other words, the child basic information DKIB is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1's own child, including, for example, various kinds of information related to the basic information of the mother U1's own child.

The child company input information acquisition unit 162 acquires information such as the child's characteristics and points to note obtained when actually caring for the child (supervising and caring for the child) at the company where the mother U1 works, as child company input information DKIC, a type of child invariant information DKI.
The child company input information DKIC is, for example, various information related to the child being watched over and cared for by the mother U1, such as information on characteristics and points to note in watching over and caring for the child, which may be input by the company or the service provider M where the child is being watched over and cared for. This information is typically input by a person in charge at the company or the service provider M, and is transmitted from the company terminal 7 or the administrator terminal 5 to the server 1.
Therefore, the child company input information acquisition unit 162 acquires information such as the child's characteristics and points to note obtained when actually caring for the child (supervising and caring for the child) at the company where the mother U1 works, sent from the company terminal 7, as child company input information DKIC.

An example of the contents of the child company input information DKIC will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
8, one item, "child characteristics (safety indicators: biting, crying loudly, compatibility with teachers/friends)," is shown as the specific content of the child company input information DKIC. In other words, the child company input information DKIC is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1 or her child, including various information about the child being watched over or cared for, such as the safety characteristics of the child and other children being watched over or cared for, from the company or the like that provides the child care.
In addition, this information may be entered into the company terminal 7 or the administrator terminal 5 by a person in charge of the company where the child is being watched over or cared for, or by the service provider M, for example, when an event occurs such as the child being watched over or cared for crying loudly under specified conditions while the child is being watched over or cared for.

In contrast to the child immutable information acquisition unit 151, the child variable information acquisition unit 152 acquires, from among information relating to the child of the mother U1, information that can vary depending on the mother U1 or the child, as child variable information DKM.
Here, the child variable information DKM refers to subjective information about the child that can be changed according to the will and thoughts of the mother U1, among information about the child of the mother U1.

The child variable information acquisition unit 152 includes a child base information acquisition unit 171 and a child thinking ability information acquisition unit 172.

The child base information acquisition unit 171 acquires information such as updated physical measurement results of the child and evaluations by kindergartens and nursery schools other than those provided by this service as child base information DKMB, a type of child variable information DKM.
The child base information DKMB is, for example, various information such as updated physical measurement results of the child, evaluations by kindergartens and nursery schools other than this service, etc. This information is typically input by the mother U1 herself via the mother terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the child-based information acquisition unit 171 acquires information such as the child's updated physical measurement results sent from the mother's terminal 6, evaluations by kindergartens and nursery schools other than this service, and school enrollment status (scheduled enrollment) as child-based information DKMB.

An example of the contents of the child base information DKMB will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
8, two items, "Weight and height updates (once every six months)" and "Evaluations at kindergarten and nursery school," are shown as specific contents of the child-based information DKMB. In other words, the child-based information DKMB is information that includes various information related to the changing situation (so-called profile) of the child of the mother U1, among information that can vary depending on the mother U1 and her child.

The child thinking ability information acquiring section 172 acquires information on what kind of thinking ability a child has as child thinking ability information DKMT, which is a type of child variable information DKM.
The child thinking ability information DKMT is, for example, various information related to the answers of the mother U1 to a checklist or the like related to a specific child. The child thinking ability information DKMT may include information on the thinking ability of the child of the mother U1 that has been processed or evaluated based on a checklist or the like related to a specific child. Typically, this information is input by the mother U1 herself via the mother terminal 6 and transmitted to the server 1.
Therefore, the child thinking information acquisition unit 172 acquires the child thinking information DKMT based on the answer information of the checklist etc. transmitted from the mother terminal 6. The mother U1 may directly input the child thinking information DKMT.

An example of the contents of the child thinking ability information DKMT will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
In the example of Fig. 8, one item "Characteristics (simple checklist)" is shown as the specific content of the child thinking information DKMT. In other words, the child thinking information DKMT is information that includes various information related to the usual personality, characteristics, behavior, etc. of the child of the mother U1, among information that can be changed by the child of the mother U1.

In summary, the child immutable information acquisition unit 151 acquires information including the child basic information DKIB acquired by the child basic information acquisition unit 161 and the child company input information DKIC acquired by the child company input information acquisition unit 162 as the child immutable information DKI. Furthermore, as described above, the child basic information DKIB is not rewritten by the mother U1. Furthermore, the child company input information DKIC is not entered by the mother U1. In other words, the child basic information DKIB and the child company input information DKIC cannot be changed by the mother U1. In other words, the child immutable information acquisition unit 151 acquires unchangeable information related to the child of the mother U1 as the child immutable information DKI.

In summary, the child variable information acquisition unit 152 acquires information including the child base information DKMB acquired by the child base information acquisition unit 171 and the child mindset information DKMT acquired by the child mindset information acquisition unit 172 as child variable information DKM. As described above, the child base information DKMB and the child mindset information DKMT are information relating to the child's future hopes and the nature of his or her thoughts. This information should be input by the mother U1 or extracted by a checklist for the mother U1, or the like. In other words, the child base information DKMB and the child mindset information DKMT are treated as child variable information DKM because they can vary depending on the mother U1 or the child.

As described above, the child information acquisition unit 112 combines the child immutable information DKI and the child mutable information DKM to acquire the child information DK.

The storage unit 113 stores the mother information (mother invariant information DMI and mother variable information DMM) and the child information DK (child invariant information DKI and child variable information DKM) in the mother mask DB2 by linking them together for each mother U1 and each child.
The storage unit 113 can provide various information to the digitization evaluation unit 114 described later, thereby digitizing and evaluating the various information. Furthermore, the storage unit 113 can further link the evaluation digitized by the digitization evaluation unit 114 to the various information and store it. In other words, the digitized evaluation of the various information is linked to the various information and stored in the Mamask DB 2. The digitization of the various information will be described later.

The quantification evaluation unit 114 quantifies and evaluates any one of the mother invariant information DMI, the mother variable information DMM, and the child information DK. That is, the quantification evaluation unit 114 can quantify and evaluate any one of the mother invariant information DMI acquired by the mother invariant information acquisition unit 121 and the mother variable information DMM acquired by the mother variable information acquisition unit 122.
The digitized information is used in the matching system SYS3 described below when matching mother U1 with companies.

Above, using Figures 7 and 8, we have explained the functional blocks that function when the database management server 1 executes the process of linking and storing the mother immutable information DMI, mother variable information DMM, child immutable information DKI, and child variable information DKM.
Hereinafter, a specific example of various information included in the master mask DB 2 managed by the database management server 1 of FIG. 7 will be described with reference to FIG.

Figure 9 shows an example of mother information that changes with the lifestyle of a mother who uses each of the various types of support provided by this service shown in Figure 3.

The example in Fig. 9 shows an example in which the mother information DM1 of the mother U1-1 (Ms. Tanaka) changes with changes in her lifestyle when the mother U1-1 (Ms. Tanaka) uses each of the various types of support provided by the service shown in Fig. 3. Here, in Fig. 9, the mother information DM1 of the mother U1-1 is shown as mother information DM1-1 to DM1-3 in three stages, respectively.
Incidentally, the mother resume information DMIB1-1 to DMIB1-3 and the mother company input information DMIC1-1 to DMIC1-3 included in the mother invariant information DMI1-1 to DMI1-3 respectively have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Similarly, the mother base information DMMB1-1 to DMMB1-3, the mother career formation information DMMC1-1 to DMMC1-3, and the mother thinking information DMIT1-1 to DMIT1-3 included in the mother variable information DMM1-1 to DMM1-3 respectively have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Although not shown in the figure, in the explanation of Fig. 9, various information will be explained by assigning the above-mentioned symbols.

Here, mother U1-1 with a one-year-old child has the following feelings and desires: "I would like to return to work as a full-time employee, but I am worried about the gap in my work history (related to pregnancy and childbirth)," and she would like to register with Mama Square as a user who will be in charge of work including so-called desk work at Mama Square as described above.
Specifically, for example, mother U1-1 wishes to "become a permanent employee with stability and social trust,""but because I am worried about this while raising my child, I would like to start by working at Mama Square," and "want an environment where I can work safely even if my children are small, within a 15-minute train commute."

The mother information DM1-1 is information about the mother U1-1 at the stage (first stage) when the use of this service is started. Here, among the mother information DM1-1, the mother invariant information DMI1-1 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-1, and the mother variable information DMM1-1 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-1.

Specifically, the information stored as mother's resume information DMIB1-1 in the mother's information DM1-1 is "accounting clerk at a trading company for 5 years (full-time employee, no job changes)", "English proficiency test score 800", and "management experience".
Furthermore, in the mother's information DM1-1, the mother's company input information DMIC1-1 stores information on "joined LD."
Here, "LD" is the title of leader. In other words, the mother U1-1 has been employed as a leader since the beginning when she registered with this service. The service provider M can determine the title and treatment of the mother U1-1 based on the mother resume information DMIB.

Moreover, the mother base information DMMB1-1 of the mother information DM1-1 stores information such as "preferred to be within dependent status" and "available work area within 15 minutes."
Moreover, in the mother's career development information DMMC1-1 of the mother's information DM1-1, information "permanent employment preferred" is stored.
Moreover, the mother's mindset information DMMT1-1 in the mother's information DM1-1 stores information on the "career woman type." That is, as described above, the mother U1-1 who is the "career woman type" has a strong desire to work and tends to prefer a job where she can make the most of her skills and abilities.

Next, let us assume that mother U1-1, whose child has now turned "2 years old," wishes to "increase her workload a little more since she has been promoted to supervisor (hereinafter abbreviated as "SV")."
Specifically, for example, mother U1-1 may wish to "find her administrative duties very rewarding,""increase the number of days she is deployed and achieve her goals," and "obtain qualifications to do higher level work."

The mother information DM1-2 is information about the mother U1-1 whose child has turned "2 years old" at the stage (second stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM1-2, the mother invariable information DMI1-2 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-1, and the mother variable information DMM1-2 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-1.
The mother resume information DMIB1-2 and the mother mentality information DMMT1-2 of the mother information DM1-2 are the same as the mother resume information DMIB1-2 and the mother mentality information DMMT1-2 of the mother information DM1-1, respectively.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI1-2 has not been changed by the mother U1. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM1-2 has items that have been changed by the mother. The points that have been changed in the mother information DM1-2 will be described below.

Furthermore, the mother company input information DMIC1-2 of the mother information DM1-2 stores information such as "SV promotion,""personnel evaluation score xx," and "perfect attendance."
Furthermore, in the mother base information DMMB1-2 of the mother information DM1-2, in addition to the information stored in the mother base information DMMB1-1, information on "employment insurance/social insurance enrollment" and "5 days a week full-time" is stored.
Furthermore, in the mother career development information DMMC1-2 of the mother information DM1-2, information on "office software certification obtained" is stored in addition to the mother career development information DMMC1-1.

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM1-2 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-1. That is, in this example, the mother's company input information DMIC1-2 is updated based on the input of the company representative U2 and the service provider M, and the mother's base information DMMB1-2 and the mother's career development information DMMC1-2 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-1.

Next, assume that mother U1-1, whose child has now entered "elementary school," wishes to "work as a full-time employee now that her child has entered elementary school and childcare has settled down," and "return to her previous job before pregnancy and childbirth."
Specifically, for example, mother U1-1 may wish to think, "My job is going well, and I'm gaining confidence in working while raising my child, so I'd like to aim for full-time employment," and "If I were to return to full-time employment, I would like to work in accounting at my previous trading company."

The mother information DM1-3 is information about the mother U1-1 whose child has become an "elementary school student" at the stage (third stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM1-3, the mother invariable information DMI1-3 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-1, and the mother variable information DMM1-3 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-1.
In the mother information DM1-3, the mother resume information DMIB1-3, the mother base information DMMB1-3, and the mother mentality information DMMT1-3 of the mother information DM1-2 which are left blank are the same as the respective information in the mother information DM1-2.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI1-3 has not been changed by the mother U1. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM1-3 has items that have been changed by the mother U1. The points that have been changed in the mother information DM1-3 will be described below.

In addition, the mother company input information DMIC1-3 of the mother information DM1-3 stores information such as "base achieved profitability" and "personnel evaluation XXX."
Moreover, in the mother base information DMMB1-3 of the mother information DM1-3, information "available work area within 1 hour" is stored in place of the information in the mother base information DMMB1-2. Moreover, in the mother career development information DMMC1-3 of the mother information DM1-3, information "preferred same industry as previous job" is stored in place of the information added in the mother career development information DMMC1-2.

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM1-3 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-1. That is, in this example, the mother's company input information DMIC1-3 is updated based on the input of the company representative U2 and the service provider M, and the mother's career development information DMMC1-3 is updated based on the input of the mother U1-1.

Details will be given later, but by using the matching system SYS3, mother U1-1 can receive the following support:

That is, to the right of the mother's information DM1-3, the result of the matching system SYS3 is displayed, which shows that "based on her experience in SV work at the base (client and customer relations and base P&L management), it has been determined that she is more capable in sales administration than in accounting."
That is, the matching system SYS3 can determine that "mother U1-1 can demonstrate her abilities in sales administration" based on various information including the mother invariant information DMI1-3 and mother variable information DMM1-3 shown in FIG.

Here, Figure 9 shows examples of human resources that companies are looking for. Specifically, Figure 9 shows "experienced office worker," "office software certification, bookkeeping qualification," "job type: sales office worker," "workplace: business office," and "work style: five days a week (Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays off)." In other words, the matching system SYS3 stores information on human resources that are sought by multiple companies, and can match the above jobs shown in Figure 9 as jobs suitable for mother U1-1.

The white arrow shown to the right of the mother information DM1-3 is drawn with "assistance in obtaining bookkeeping qualifications." That is, when providing support through the matching system SYS3, the service provider M can assist the user, mother 1-1, in obtaining bookkeeping qualifications based on her desire to "perform accounting work." Moreover, the company matched by the above-mentioned matching system SYS3 also has a request for bookkeeping qualifications. In other words, bookkeeping qualifications are qualifications that will contribute to the career development of mother U1-1. In this way, the matching system SYS3 can suggest obtaining qualifications that will contribute to appropriate career development by matching with the human resources that companies are looking for based on the mother information DM1-3.

Specific examples of various information included in the master mask DB 2 managed by the database management server 1 of FIG. 7 have been described above with reference to FIG.
Hereinafter, examples of various information contained in the master mask DB2 managed by the database management server of FIG. 6 will be described with reference to FIG.

Figure 10 is a diagram showing an example of various information contained in the mother mask DB managed by the database management server in Figure 6, which is different from the example shown in Figure 8. Note that the mother information DM and child information DK in the example shown in Figure 10 are shown in the form of an ER diagram.

In FIG. 10, mother information DM is shown on the right side, and child information DK is shown on the left side. Here, mother information DM and child information DK are linked as shown in the relationship RMK and stored in the mother mask DB2.

First, we will explain an example of the configuration of mother information DM stored in Mamask DB2.

In the mother information DM shown in FIG. 10, the mother invariant information DMI is shown on the left side. The mother variable information DMM is shown on the right side. Here, the mother invariant information DMI and the mother variable information DMM are linked as shown in the relationship RIMM, etc., and stored in the mother mask DB2.

Next, we will explain the specific contents of the Mother Information DM.

The Mother Immutable Information DMI is made up of four databases: "Mama Master," "Existing Career DB," "Internal Personnel Evaluation DB," and "Matching DB."

The "Mom Master" that constitutes the mother immutable information DMI is the basic database when various information is stored in the database for each mother U1. Specifically, for example, the Mom Master stores information corresponding to the items "Mom ID", "Employee ID", "Name", "Date of Birth", "Address", "Telephone Number", "Email Address", and "Work History". In other words, the Mom Master stores basic information for each mother U1 and IDs that link various databases.

The "existing career DB" that constitutes the mother immutable information DMI is a database that stores the existing career (career history) of mother U1. That is, the existing career DB stores detailed information on mother U1's work history to date, which is written in what is known as a resume or job history. Specifically, for example, the existing career DB stores information corresponding to items such as "Mom ID," "Employee ID," "Work History A," "Employment Type/Position," "Period," "Implementation Content ID," "Work History B," and "Employment Type/Position." The existing career DB is classified as mother resume information DMIB, which is part of the mother immutable information DMI.

The "internal personnel evaluation DB" that constitutes the mother immutable information DMI is a database that stores personnel evaluations by the company of mother U1. Specifically, for example, the internal personnel evaluation DB stores information corresponding to the items "Mom ID", "Employee ID", "Personnel evaluation results", "Individual KPI achievement status", and "Attendance status". The internal personnel evaluation DB is classified as part of the mother immutable information DMI, in the mother company input information DMIC.

The "matching DB" constituting the mother immutable information DMI is a database that stores various information of the mother information DM as various numerical values to be used by the matching system SYS3 described below. Specifically, the matching DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "Mom ID", "Employee ID", "Numerical data on thinking", "Numerical data on working conditions", and "Numerical data on career".

The mother variable information DMM is composed of three databases: "thinking DB,""working conditions DB," and "future career DB."
The "thinking ability DB" constituting the mother variable information DMM is a database that stores information such as what kind of thinking ability the mother U1 has. Specifically, for example, the thinking ability DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "mom ID", "employee ID", "lifestyle-related thinking ability", "child-rearing-related thinking ability", and "work-related thinking ability". The thinking ability DB is classified as the mother thinking ability information DMMT in the mother variable information DMM.
The "working conditions DB" constituting the mother variable information DMM is a database that stores information on the future job and working conditions that mother U1 wants to have. Specifically, for example, the working conditions DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "mom ID", "employee ID", "available working area", "support (domestic/external)", and "desired annual income". The working conditions DB is classified as the mother career development information DMMC in the mother variable information DMM.
The "future career DB" that constitutes the mother variable information DMM is a database that stores information on qualifications that mother U1 currently has or is considering obtaining in the future. Specifically, for example, the future career DB stores contents corresponding to the items "Mom ID", "Employee ID", and "Obtaining new qualifications". The future career DB is classified as the mother career formation information DMMC of the mother variable information DMM.

10, the mother information DM includes the mother invariant information DMI and the mother variable information DMM. The mother invariant information DMI and the mother variable information DMM are stored in a linked manner as shown in the association RIMM.
As described above, the various databases related to the mother information DM store a unique mother ID for each mother U1. That is, the ER diagram in Fig. 10 is merely an example, and the various databases related to the mother information DM can be linked by the mother ID.

Next, an example of the structure of the child information DK stored in the mother mask DB 2 will be described.
The "child information DK" shown in FIG. 10 includes a "child master" and a plurality of "child individual DBs".
The "child master" constituting the child information DK is a database for storing a mother's children (one child or two or more multiple children) as a group of related children.
The "child individual DB" is a database that stores various information for each child.
That is, the child master is linked to the mother information DM by the above-mentioned relevance RMK. The child master is also linked to a plurality of child individual DBs as shown in Fig. 10. The plurality of child individual DBs are also linked to the child master.

FIG. 10 shows various databases linked to one of a plurality of child individual DBs.
The child invariant information DKI is made up of three databases: "child individual DB", "child care DB", and "company input child characteristics DB".

As described above, the "child individual DB" constituting the child immutable information DKI is a database for storing various data for each child as a group of data for each child. Specifically, the child individual DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "child individual ID", "name", and "date of birth". The child individual DB is classified as the child basic information DKIB of the child immutable information DKI.
The "child care DB" constituting the child immutable information DKI is information on the living conditions and the like prepared when the child of mother U1 enters a nursery school or the like. Specifically, the child care DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "child individual ID,""employee ID (mother ID),""time of weaning,""medicalhistory,""current medical history,""presence or absence of allergies," and "characteristics." The child care DB is classified as child basic information DKIB, part of the child immutable information DKI.
The "company input child characteristic DB" constituting the child invariant information DKI is a database that stores information such as the characteristics and points to note of children that are input by companies and the like and that are obtained when actually caring for children (watching and childcare). Specifically, the company input child characteristic DB stores contents corresponding to the items of "child individual ID", "employee ID (mom ID)", "biting habit", "crying habit", "compatibility with friends", and "compatibility with KS (kids staff)". Here, the kids staff refers to the mother U1 who works in the above-mentioned Mama Square, including so-called watching and childcare. The company input child characteristic DB is classified as child company input information DKIC, which is part of the child invariant information DKI.

The child variable information DKM is made up of two databases: a "child growth DB" and a "child thinking ability DB."
The "child growth DB" constituting the child variable information DKM is a database that stores information about the child's growth, such as physical condition and school progression, input by the mother U1. Specifically, the child growth DB stores information corresponding to the items of "child individual ID,""employee ID (mother ID),""height (updated every six months),""weight (updated every six months)," and "school attendance status." The child growth DB is classified as child base information DKMB, part of the child variable information DKM.
The "child thinking DB" constituting the child variable information DKM is a database that stores information on the type of thinking a child has, based on information entered by the mother U1 or the child himself/herself. Specifically, the child thinking DB stores contents corresponding to the items "child individual ID", "employee ID (mother ID)", and "child thinking". The child thinking DB is classified as child thinking information DKMT, which is part of the child variable information DKM.

10, the child information DK includes each of the child immutable information DKI and the child variable information DKM. The child immutable information DKI and the child variable information DKM are stored while being linked by the relation RIMK.
As described above, the various databases related to the child information DK store a unique child individual ID for each child of the mother U1. In other words, the ER diagram in Fig. 10 is merely an example, and the various databases related to the child information DK can be linked by the child individual ID.

As described above, the child master is linked to the mother information DM by the above-mentioned relationship RMK. The child master is also linked to multiple individual child DBs as shown in FIG. 10. The multiple individual child DBs are also linked to the child master. In other words, the mother information DM and the child information DK are linked as shown in the relationship RMK, etc., and stored in the mother information DB2.

In this way, the mother immutable information DMI, the mother variable information DMM, the child immutable information DKI, the child variable information DKM, and the databases that constitute each of them are linked and stored in the Mother Mask DB2.

FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of a process for storing mother information and child information, which is executed by a database management server having the functional configuration of FIG.
Here, the "storage process" of the MASK DB system SYS1 is a process of storing data to be accumulated in the MASK DB2 in FIG.
When data to be stored and managed in the mother mask DB2 (new mother immutable information DMI or mother variable information DMM, updated mother variable information DMM, etc.) is generated, the storage process is started and the following steps S11 to S16 are executed.

That is, in step S11, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 121 acquires information about the mother U1's occupation that cannot be changed by the mother U1 (for example, mother resume information DMIB and mother company input information DMIC) as mother invariant information DMI.

In step S12, the mother variable information acquisition unit 122 acquires information that can be varied by mother U1 in her occupation (e.g., mother base information DMMB, mother career development information DMMC, and mother mindset information DMMT) as mother variable information DMM.

In step S13, the child immutable information acquisition unit 151 acquires, as child immutable information DKI, information about the child of mother U1 that cannot be changed by the mother or the child (e.g., child basic information DKIB and child company input information DKIC).

In step S14, the child variable information acquisition unit 152 acquires, from among the information about the child of mother U1, information that can be changed by the mother or the child (e.g., child base information DKMB and child thinking information DKMT) as child variable information DKM.

In step S15, the quantification evaluation unit 114 quantifies and evaluates the mother invariant information DMI acquired in step S11, the mother variable information DMM acquired in step S12, and the child information DK acquired in steps S13 and S14, respectively.

In step S16, the storage unit 113 links the mother invariant information DMI acquired in step S11, the mother variable information DMM acquired in step S12, the child information acquired in step S13, and the quantified evaluation results of step ST15, etc., and stores them in the Mother Mask DB2 for each mother and child.
This completes the storage process.

The MASK DB system SYS1 has been described above with reference to FIGS.
The shift management system SYS2 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 12 to 19.

As described with reference to Fig. 3, the shift management system SYS2 is a system for managing shifts suitable for working mothers U1 who are raising children. In particular, the shift management system SYS2 is suitable for use in shift management at the above-mentioned Mama Square.
First, MAMA SQUARE will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

As described above, Mama Square is a support system in which multiple mothers U1 with infants and young children are divided into mothers U1 who do work that includes so-called desk work and mothers U1 who do work that includes so-called supervision and childcare, and then have them work in the same workspace.
Moreover, the work including so-called desk work is composed of one or more tasks from other companies that are comprehensively entrusted to the service provider M. Each of the multiple mothers U1 who perform work including so-called desk work takes on at least a part of the one or more tasks from other companies as their own work, working in shifts without being bound to other companies.
Moreover, the so-called job including monitoring and childcare is a job of watching over and caring for the children accompanied by U1 who works at Mama Square. Each of the multiple mothers U1 who do the so-called job including monitoring and childcare undertakes to watch over and care for the children accompanied by both the above-mentioned "multiple mothers U1 who do the job including so-called desk work" and the "mother U1 who does the job including so-called monitoring and childcare."

In the following description of Mama Square, mothers U1 who work in jobs that include desk work will be referred to as "working staff." Mothers U1 who work in jobs that include watching over and childcare will be referred to as "kids staff."
In the following description, the working staffs are assigned reference numbers beginning with WS. When multiple working staffs are to be individually distinguished, an integer of 1 or more is added after WS to distinguish them from one another.
Similarly, the kids staff will be described with reference numbers beginning with KS. When multiple kids staff members are to be distinguished from one another, an integer of 1 or more will be added after KS to distinguish them from one another.
Furthermore, when there is no need to distinguish between the multiple working staff and the multiple kid staff, they will be collectively referred to as "working staff WS" and "kid staff KS", respectively.

Below, using Figure 12, we will explain how the working staff WS and the kids staff KS work at Mama Square, where shifts are managed by the shift management system SYS2.

FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of an outline of a service to which the shift management system of FIG. 3 is applied.
FIG. 12 shows two rooms, a working room WR and a kids room KR, arranged side by side.
Here, the working room WR is a room where the working staff WS performs work including so-called desk work.
The Kids Room KR is a room where the kids' staff carry out their work, including supervision and childcare.
"Adjacent" here means that the Working Room WR and the Kids Room KR are adjacent rooms separated by a transparent or semi-transparent window. In other words, the Kids Room KR at Mama Square is a monitoring facility with a different concept from a nursery school simply provided in another building or on another floor on the same premises.

Here, three working staff members WS1 to WS3 exist in the working room WR in the example of Fig. 12. That is, the three working staff members WS1 to WS3 are engaged in work that includes so-called desk work.
Furthermore, three kids' staff members KS1 to KS3 are present in the kids' room KR in the example of Fig. 12. That is, the three kids' staff members KS1 to KS3 are engaged in work that includes so-called watching over the kids.

Here, the two children KWS1-1 and KWS1-2 shown in the kids' room KR are the children of working staff WS1. Also, the children KWS2 and KWS3 shown in the kids' room KR are the children of working staff WS2 and WS3, respectively. Similarly, the two children KKS1-1 and KKS1-2 are the children of kids staff KS1. The children KKS2 and KKS3 shown in the kids' room KR are the children of kids staff KS2 and KS3, respectively.
That is, the children shown in the kids' room KR are the children of the working staff WS and the kids' staff KS.

Here, groups G1 to G3 are shown in the kids' room KR, indicated by dotted lines. The groups G1 to G3 are not boundaries such as walls in the kids' room, but groups that indicate the children who are supervised and cared for by the kids' staff KW. Hereinafter, when there is no need to distinguish between the groups, they will be collectively referred to as "groups G."
In the description of this embodiment, the number of groups G is determined by dividing the number of children by the safety placement standard number to determine the number (and placement) of kids staff KS. Here, the safety placement standard is the number of kids staff KS that is set by the service provider and serves as a standard for the placement of kids staff KS to ensure the safety of children during supervision. In the following description of this embodiment, an example will be described in which the safety placement standard is "one kids staff KS for a maximum of four children."
Group G1 is a group of five people in total, consisting of one kids staff member KS1 and four children KWS1-1, KWS1-2, KKS1-1, and KKS1-2. That is, kids staff member KS1 is in charge of watching over the four children KWS1-1, KWS1-2, KKS1-1, and KKS1-2, which includes a job of watching over them.
Similarly, the kids staff member KS2 is in charge of watching over three children KWS2, KKS2, and KKS3, which includes the job of watching over them. Looking at group G2, one child is indicated by a dotted line. In other words, based on the safety placement criteria, the kids staff member KS2 can watch over yet another child.

Here, for example, child KWS3 has the characteristic of "biting habit" described in the above-mentioned Mama Mask DB2, that is, the characteristic of sometimes biting other children in the kids room KR, and therefore requires careful supervision. For this reason, from the viewpoint of safety, the kids staff KS must pay constant attention to child KWS3 to ensure his safety. In this case, the number of kids staff KS is increased by one compared to the number of kids staff KS calculated simply based on the number of children and the safety placement standard. This allows the kids staff KS to pay constant attention to child KWS3.
Therefore, the shift management system SYS2 performs shift management so as to assign a larger number of kids staff KS compared to the number of kids staff KS calculated simply based on the number of children and the safety assignment standard.

Group G3 is a group of two people in total, consisting of one kids staff member KS3 and one child KWS3. That is, kids staff member KS3 is in charge of watching over the child KWS3, which includes a job of watching over the child.
12, an arrow is shown from one child in group G2, indicated by a dotted line, to child KWS3 in group G3. This arrow indicates that, compared to the number of kids staff KS calculated simply based on the number of children and the safety placement standard, as described above, the number of kids staff KS3 has been increased, making it possible to pay constant attention to child KWS3.
In this way, the shift management system SYS2 can manage the shifts of the kids staff KS based on the number of children, the number of children who need attention, and the safety placement standard. This allows the service provider M to ensure the safety of children.

Thus, according to Mama Square, working staff WS work in the working room WR, and kids staff KS work in the kids room KR attached to the working room WR.
The children of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS are all looked after and cared for by the kids staff KS in the kids room KR.
This allows the working staff WS or the kids staff KS to easily check how their own children are being watched over and cared for.

In addition, in Mama Square, the Kids Room KR, which is attached to the Working Room WR, is not a so-called nursery school (daycare center). For this reason, the Kids Staff KS who work watching over the children in the Kids Room KR do not need to have a nursery school teacher qualification or a kindergarten teacher license. Furthermore, it is easier for the service provider M to find candidates for Kids Staff KS than to hire a nursery school teacher or kindergarten teacher. There are also no government restrictions regarding facility standards. In other words, there are certain standards that are in line with the standards of the service provider M and other government standards, but as long as they are met, it is possible to set up the facility anywhere. In other words, it is possible to solve the problem of waiting lists, where mothers U1 who want to work and leave their children in nursery schools cannot find vacancies in nursery schools.

In addition, working staff WS at Mama Square undertake one or more tasks from other companies that have been collectively accepted by service provider M. In other words, the entirety of one or more tasks from other companies that have been collectively accepted by service provider M is carried out by multiple working staff WS, whose shifts are appropriately organized. Therefore, when viewed on an individual basis among multiple working staff WS, each working staff WS can work during the time periods that he or she prefers.

In this way, by adopting Mama Square, service provider M can offer work, including so-called desk work, to mother U1 who finds it difficult to work full-time. Service provider M can also provide a monitoring and childcare facility to mother U1 who finds it difficult to enroll her child in a nursery school or the like. Furthermore, by providing a kids' room KR in addition to the working room WR, service provider M can provide a workplace that includes a "monitoring facility" where children are monitored but no notification is required, rather than a childcare facility that is difficult to obtain approval for and difficult to secure childcare workers. Furthermore, mother U1 can work in an environment where she can keep an eye on her child when necessary, unlike simply enrolling her child in a nursery school.

The shift management system SYS2 is a shift management system that is suitable for application to Mama Square as described above.

FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a configuration related to a shift management system in the configuration of the information processing system of FIG. 4 .
As shown in FIG. 13, the shift management system SYS2 is configured by connecting a shift management server 3, a mother mask DB 2, a manager terminal 5, mother terminals 6-1 to 6-n, and company terminals 7-1 to 7-m to each other via a predetermined network N such as the Internet.

The functional configuration of the shift management server 3 shown in FIG. 14 will be explained below using a specific example of shifts for working staff WS and kids staff KS managed by the shift management server 3 shown in FIG. 15.

FIG. 14 is a functional block diagram showing an example of a functional configuration of the shift management server of FIG. 13 .
FIG. 15 is a diagram showing an example of a flow of determining shifts for a certain time period for working staff WS and kids staff KS managed by the shift management server 3 having the functional configuration of FIG.

14, for the sake of simplicity, the mother terminal 6 used by the working staff WS and the candidate mother U1 is referred to as the mother terminal 6-WS. Also, the mother terminal 6 used by the kids staff KS and the candidate mother U1 is referred to as the mother terminal 6-KS.
The horizontal arrows in Fig. 15 have "shift decision flow" written inside the arrow. That is, the shift decision is made by performing steps ST1 to ST7 shown in Fig. 15 in order from the left. Here, below each arrow of steps ST1 to ST7, an overview of the process performed in step STk (k is an integer value from 1 to 7) corresponding to the arrow is shown.

In the CPU 31, when the execution of the shift decision process of the second service, i.e., the service that provides the shift management system SYS2, is controlled, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311, the WS child information acquisition unit 312, the KS shift information acquisition unit 313, the KS child information acquisition unit 314, and the shift decision unit 315 function.

First, as described above, a job including so-called desk work is composed of one or more tasks from other companies comprehensively accepted by the service provider M. The process of determining the number of working staff WS required according to the volume of tasks accepted in this way is steps ST1 and ST2 in Fig. 15.
In steps ST1 and ST2, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 and the shift decision unit 315 function.

Specifically, for example, as shown in Fig. 15, in the process of "constraint factor 1" in step ST1, "case volume" is written. That is, as a constraint on the contents of the shift (constraint factor 1), there are one or more amounts of work and contents of work from other companies (hereinafter referred to as "case volume").
Therefore, in order to grasp the number of working staff WS required for this case volume, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 acquires information regarding the work schedule related to desk work of the working staff WS as WS shift information.
More specifically, for example, a mother U1 who is a candidate for the working staff WS uses the mother terminal 6-WS to input information including the time period during which she would like to work as the working staff WS. The mother terminal 6-WS transmits the information thus input to the shift management system SYS2.
Therefore, in the “constraint factor 1” process of step ST1, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 acquires, as WS shift information, information transmitted from the mother terminal 6-WS, i.e., information including the time periods during which mother U1 wishes to work as working staff WS.

In the process of "Result 1" of step ST2, the shift decision unit 315 decides the working staff WS based on the WS shift information acquired by the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 and the amount of cases. For example, the shift decision unit 315 assigns the working staff WS based on information on whether each of the candidates for the working staff WS is available to work a shift and on the information on past performance stored in the Mamask DB2. That is, for example, if there are 5 hours of work A and 5 hours of work B as the amount of cases, the shift decision unit 315 can assign a working staff member who is determined to be efficient in work A based on the information on past performance to work A. Note that the shift decision unit 315 may calculate the required time for each working staff member WS by managing the amount of work in other units (for example, the amount of documents) instead of time. That is, the shift decision unit 315 can assign the working staff member WS who can work efficiently to the shift for the required time based on the information on the past performance of the working staff WS.
Specifically, for example, in FIG. 15, in the process of "Result 1" in step ST2, there are written working staff WS1 to WS3 and "WR staff determination."
That is, in the “Result 1” process of step ST2 in the example of FIG. 15, the shift determination unit 315 determines the working staff WS to work in the working room WR by selecting working staff WS1 to WS3 as a result (Result 1) based on the amount of cases (Constraint factor 1) and the WS shift information.

Once the working staff WS have been determined in steps ST1 and ST2 in this manner, the number of children that the working staff WS will have (the number of children to be watched over and cared for) is determined in step ST3.
In the process of step ST3, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 and the shift decision unit 315 function.

That is, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires information about the child who accompanies the working staff WS when performing desk work as WS child information.
More specifically, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires, as WS child information, information on children accompanied by the working staff WS determined based on the WS shift information acquired by the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 from the child information DK of the mom mask DB 2. The WS child information includes information on whether or not each child requires attention when being watched over or cared for.

15, in the process of "linking factor 1, constraint factor 2" in step ST3, there is a description of each of the children of working staff WS1 to WS3 and "Determining the number of children on the WR side." That is, in the stage of step ST3, there is linking factor 1, which is the number of children, which can be obtained from each of the child information DK linked to each of the mother information DM of each of the working staff WS1 to WS3.
More specifically, in the example of FIG. 15, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires information indicating that there are two children KWS1-1 and KWS1-2 as children of working staff member WS1 as WS child information (linking factor 1).
Similarly, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires, as WS child information (linking factor 1), information indicating that children KWS2 and KWS3 exist as children of working staff WS2 and WS3, respectively.
The number of children (linking factor 1) of the multiple working staff WS obtained in this manner becomes a constraint factor 2 for the provisional determination of the kids staff KS described below.

In the “Result 2” process of step ST4, the shift determination unit 315 determines the kids staff KS based on the KS shift information acquired by the KS shift information acquisition unit 313 and the number of children of the multiple working staff WS (constraint factor 2), etc.
Specifically, for example, in the process of "Result 2" in step ST4 in FIG. 15, there are entries for kids staff KS1 and KS2 and "KR staff provisionally determined."
That is, in the "Result 2" process of step ST4 in the example of Figure 15, the shift determination unit 315 determines the kids staff KS to work in the kids room KR by selecting kids staff KS1 and KS2 as a result (Result 2) based on the number of children (constraint factor 2) of multiple working staff WS and the KS shift information.

Once the kids staff KS have been determined in steps ST1 to ST4 in this manner, the number of children (the number of people to be watched over and cared for) that the kids staff KS will have is determined in step ST5.
In the process of step ST5, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 and the shift decision unit 315 function.

That is, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information about the child that the kids staff KS accompanies when watching over and caring for the child as KS child information.
More specifically, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires, as KS child information, information on the children accompanied by the kids staff KS determined based on the KS shift information acquired by the KS shift information acquisition unit 313 from the child information DK in the Mom Mask DB 2. The KS child information includes information on whether or not each child requires attention when being watched over or cared for.

15, in the process of "linking factor 2" in step ST5, there is a description of each of the children of the kids staff KS1 and KS2 and "Determining the number of children on the KR side." In other words, in the stage of step ST5, there is linking factor 2, which is the number of children, which can be obtained from each of the child information DK linked to each of the mother information DM of the kids staff KS1 and KS2.
More specifically, in the example of FIG. 15, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information indicating that children KKS1-1 and KKS1-2 exist as children of the kids staff member KS1 as WS child information (linking factor 2).
Similarly, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information indicating that a child KKS2 exists as a child of the kids staff member KS2 as KS child information (linking factor 2).
The number of children of the multiple kids staff KS obtained in this manner (linking factor 2) becomes a constraint factor 3 related to the final decision on the kids staff KS described below.

In this way, once the number of children (the number of people to be watched over and cared for) of the kids staff KS provisionally determined in steps ST1 and ST5 has been obtained, the constraints for the final determination of the kids staff are determined in step ST6.
In the process of step ST6, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 and the shift decision unit 315 function.

That is, the shift determination unit 315 determines the number of kids staff KS required based on the number of children of the working staff WS (linking factor 1) and the number of children of the kids staff KS (linking factor 2).
More specifically, the shift determination unit 315 determines the number of kids staff KS required based on information about the children accompanied by the working staff WS acquired by the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 and information about the children accompanied by the kids staff KS acquired by the KS shift information acquisition unit 313.

Specifically, for example, as shown in Fig. 15, in the "linking factor 3" process of step ST6, the children of working staff WS and kids staff KS are entered, along with "determining the number of children at the entire base." Also, in the "linking factor 3" process of step ST6, in group G3, a "child requiring attention" is entered for working staff WS3's child KWS3. That is, in the stage of step ST6, there exists a constraint factor 3 based on linking factor 1, the number of children of working staff WS, linking factor 2, the number of children of kids staff KS, and the factor included therein, whether or not each child requires attention when being watched over or cared for.
15, in step ST3, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires information about each of the children of the working staff WS1 to WS3 as WS child information (linking factor 1), as described above. Similarly, in step ST5, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information about each of the children of the kids staff KS1 and KS2 as KS child information (linking factor 2), as described above. In addition, the WS child information (linking factor 1) and the KS child information (linking factor 2) include factors regarding whether or not each of the children requires attention when being watched over or cared for.
The shift decision unit 315 decides the number of kids staff KS required for the final decision on the kids staff KS based on the WS child information and the KS child information.
Here, for example, one kids staff member KS may watch over and care for up to four children. Also, one kids staff member KS may watch over and care for up to one child who needs attention. Also, in the example of FIG. 15, child KWS3 is a child who needs attention.
In this case, the shift decision unit 315 divides the children of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS into three groups, G1 to G3, as shown in the example of Fig. 15. That is, the shift decision unit 315 determines that the children need to be divided into three groups by the three kids staff KS and watched over and cared for based on the WS child information (linking factor 1) and the KS child information (linking factor 2).
The number of groups involved in child supervision and care, determined based on the number of children of the working staff WS and kids staff KS (linking factor 1 and linking factor 2), becomes constraint factor 3 in the final decision on the kids staff KS described below.

In the “Result 3” process of step ST7, the shift determination unit 315 makes a final determination of the kids staff KS based on the number of groups (constraint factor 3) involved in child monitoring and care determined based on linking factor 1 and linking factor 2.
Specifically, for example, in FIG. 15, in the process of "Result 3" in step ST7, there are entries for kids staff KS1 to KS3 and "Final decision of KS."
That is, in the "Result 3" process of step ST7 in the example of Figure 15, the shift decision unit 315 further selects kids staff KS3 as a result (Result 3) based on the number of groups involved in watching over and caring for children (Constraint Factor 3) and the KS shift information, thereby making a final decision on the kids staff KS who will work in the kids room KR.

At this time, the shift decision unit 315 makes the final decision on the kids staff KS based on whether or not there is a change in the number of groups involved in watching over and caring for children (constraint factor 3) due to the number of children of the kids staff KS3 added in the final decision in step ST7. That is, in the example of Figure 15, the kids staff KS is finally decided based on whether or not four groups are required due to the number of children of the kids staff KS3.

Although not shown in FIG. 15, the shift decision unit 315 can transmit information about the decided work schedule to the manager terminal 5, the mother's terminals 6-WS and 6-KS, and the company terminal 7 as appropriate.

The functional configuration of the shift management server 3 shown in FIG. 14 has been described above using a specific example of the shifts of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS managed by the shift management server 3 shown in FIG.
In the explanation of FIGS. 13 to 15, an example has been given of determining the work schedule of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS in a certain time period.
An example of determining work schedules (shifts) for the working staff WS and the kids staff KS during various time periods on a certain day will be described below with reference to Figs. 16 to 18.

In the explanation of Figures 16 to 18, the number and characteristics of children of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS are assumed to be the same as those in the explanation of Figure 12. However, the working staff WS4 not shown in Figure 12 is assumed to have one child.
That is, working staff member WS1 has two children, children KWS1-1 and KWS1-2. Working staff member WS2 and working staff member WS3 have two children, children KWS2 and KWS3. Kids staff members KS1 to KS3 have two children, children KKS1 to KKS3. Child KWS3 is a child who requires special attention in terms of supervision and care. For example, child KWS3 is a child with a "biting habit" as described in the above-mentioned Mama Mask DB2.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of determination of a working staff member in charge of an item in each time period managed by the shift management server in FIG.
FIG. 17 is a diagram showing an example of provisional determination of children's staff in charge of watching over and caring for children during each time period, based on the determination of the working staff in FIG.
FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of determination of kids staff in charge of watching over and caring for children during each time period, based on the determination of working staff and provisional determination of kids staff in FIGS. 16 and 17. In FIG.

The table shown in FIG. 16 is a table in which the vertical axis indicates "time" and the horizontal axis indicates "WS person in charge" and "number of WS children."
The "Time" column on the vertical axis lists the times from 9:00, which is the start time of Mama Square's work day, to 18:00, which is the end of the work day, in three-hour increments.

In the "Workshop Personnel" column on the horizontal axis, there are three cases listed: "Case A (9 hours)", "Case B (4 hours)", and "Case C (6 hours)". Here, "Case A (9 hours)" means that Case A is a case that requires 9 hours of work by one person. In other words, this indicates that on this day, service provider M comprehensively accepted the three cases "Case A", "Case B", and "Case C", for working hours of 9, 4, and 6 hours respectively.

The horizontal axis, "WS Children Count" column, lists the total number of children of working staff WS, as well as important points to note. The WS Children Count column will be explained later.

First, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 acquires information on the work schedule related to the desk work of the working staff WS for the three cases, Case A to Case C, as KS shift information.
The shift decision unit 315 decides which working staff WS will be in charge of each case during each time period, as shown in FIG. 16, based on the KS shift information acquired by the WS shift information acquisition unit 311.

16, the time period from 9:00 to 15:00 for Case A is indicated as "WS1." This indicates that the working staff WS1 is the working staff WS in charge of Case A from 9:00 to 15:00.
Similarly, when looking at the time slot from 11:00 to 15:00 for Case B, it says "WS2." This shows that the working staff member WS2 is the working staff member WS in charge of Case B from 11:00 to 15:00.
Similarly, looking at the time slot from 11:00 to 17:00 for Case C, "WS3" is listed. This listing indicates that the working staff member WS3 is the working staff member WS in charge of Case C from 9:00 to 17:00.
Similarly, when looking at the time slot from 15:00 to 18:00 for Case A, "WS4" is written. This indicates that the working staff member WS4 is the working staff member WS in charge of Case A from 15:00 to 18:00.

In this way, the working staff (WS) who will be in charge of the case during each time period are determined.

Next, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires information about the children who accompany the working staff WS when they perform desk work in each time period as WS child information. Based on the WS child information, information about the children who accompany the working staff WS when they perform desk work in each time period can be compiled.
An example of information regarding children accompanying working staff WS when performing desk work during each time period is shown in the column of "Number of WS Children" in FIG.

16, time period TZ1 is from 9:00 to 11:00, during which working staff WS1 is accompanied by children. Therefore, the number of children in time period TZ1 is two.
Similarly, time period TZ2 is from 11:00 to 15:00, during which working staff WS1 to WS3 accompany children. Therefore, the number of WS children during time period TZ2 is four. Furthermore, working staff WS3's child is one who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the number of WS children during time period TZ2 is marked as "one child requiring attention."
Similarly, time period TZ3 is from 15:00 to 17:00, and is the time period when working staff WS3 and WS4 are accompanying children. Therefore, the number of WS children during time period TZ3 is two. Furthermore, working staff WS3's child is one who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the number of WS children during time period TZ3 is marked as "one child requiring attention."
Similarly, time period TZ4 is from 17:00 to 18:00, during which working staff member WS4 is accompanied by a child. Therefore, the number of children in time period TZ4 is one.

In this way, the number of children accompanying the working staff WS in charge of the case during each time period is obtained.

The table shown in FIG. 17 has "time" on the vertical axis and "number of WS children,""provisional number of KS,""provisional KS person in charge," and "confirmed number of WS+KS children" on the horizontal axis.
The "Time" column on the vertical axis is the same as the "Time" column in FIG.
The column "WS number of children" on the horizontal axis is the same as the column "WS number of children" in FIG.

The column on the horizontal axis labeled "provisional number of KSs" is the number of kids staff KSs provisionally determined based on the "number of WS children."
Here, for example, it is assumed that one kids staff KS is required for every four children. Also, for example, it is assumed that one kids staff KS is required for each child who requires special attention in watching over and caring for. In other words, the shift decision unit 315 provisionally decides the number of kids staff KS, assuming that a minimum of two kids staff KS are required when there are five children.

17, the number of WS children in time zone TZ1 is 2. Therefore, the "provisional number of KSs" in time zone TZ1 is 1.
Similarly, the number of WS children in time period TZ2 is four. In addition, one child is included who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the "provisional number of KS children" in time period TZ2 is two.
Similarly, the number of WS children in time zone TZ3 is 2. In addition, there is one child who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the "provisional number of KS children" in time zone TZ3 is 2.
Similarly, the number of WS children in time zone TZ4 is 1. Therefore, the "provisional number of KS children" in time zone TZ4 is 1.
In this manner, the shift determination unit 315 determines the provisional KS number of people.

The column of "provisional KS person in charge" on the horizontal axis is the name of the person in charge of the kids staff KS, provisionally determined based on the "number of provisional KSs."
The shift decision unit 315 decides who will be in charge of the kids staff KS based on the “provisional number of KS” and the KS shift information acquired by the KS shift information acquisition unit 313.

As shown in FIG. 17, the "provisional KS person in charge" during time period TZ1 is one of the kids staff members, KS1.
Similarly, the "provisional KS personnel" during time period TZ2 are the two kids staff members KS1 and KS2.
Similarly, the "provisional KS personnel" during time period TZ3 are the two kids staff members KS2 and KS3.
Similarly, the "provisional KS person in charge" during time period TZ4 is one of the kids staff members KS3.

Next, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information about the children accompanying the kids staff KS when they perform supervision and childcare as KS child information. That is, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information including the number of children accompanying the provisional KS person as KS child information. The "WS+KS number of children" column on the horizontal axis of Figure 17 lists the sum of the number of children accompanying the determined working staff WS and the number of children accompanying the provisionally determined kids staff KS based on the WS child information and KS child information.

17, the number of WS+KS children in time period TZ1 is four.
Similarly, the number of WS+KS children in time period TZ2 is 6. In addition, this number includes one child who requires careful supervision and childcare.
Similarly, the "WS+KS number of children" during time period TZ3 is 4. In addition, this includes one child who requires careful supervision and childcare.
Similarly, the "number of WS+KS children" in time period TZ4 is two.

In this way, the total number of children accompanying the determined working staff WS and the provisionally determined kids staff KS during each time period is determined.

The table shown in FIG. 18 is a table in which the vertical axis indicates "time" and the horizontal axis indicates "number of confirmed WS+KS children,""number of confirmed KSs," and "person in charge of confirmed KS."
The "Time" column on the vertical axis is similar to the "Time" column in FIGS.
The column of "Determined number of WS+KS children" on the horizontal axis is the same as the column of "Number of WS+KS children" in FIG.

The column on the horizontal axis labeled "Confirmed number of KSs" is the number of kids staff KSs determined based on the "Confirmed number of WS + KS children."
As described above, one kids staff member KS is required for every four children. Also, one kids staff member KS is required for each child who requires special attention in watching over and caring for them.

18, the "determined number of WS+KS children" in time zone TZ1 is 4. Therefore, the "determined number of KS children" in time zone TZ1 is 1.
Similarly, the "determined number of WS+KS children" in time period TZ2 is 6. In addition, there is one child who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the "determined number of KS children" in time period TZ2 is 3.
Similarly, the "determined number of WS+KS children" during time period TZ3 is 4. In addition, there is one child who requires careful supervision and childcare. Therefore, the "determined number of KS children" during time period TZ3 is 2.
Similarly, the "determined number of WS+KS children" in time zone TZ4 is 2. Therefore, the "determined number of KS children" in time zone TZ4 is 1.
In this manner, the shift determination unit 315 determines the confirmed KS number of people.

The column "Confirmed KS Person in Charge" on the horizontal axis is the name of the person in charge of the kids staff KS, provisionally determined based on the "Confirmed KS Number."
The shift decision unit 315 decides who will be in charge of the kids staff KS based on the “confirmed number of KS staff” and the KS shift information acquired by the KS shift information acquisition unit 313.

As shown in FIG. 18, the "confirmed KS person in charge" during time period TZ1 is one of the kids staff members, KS1.
Similarly, the "confirmed KS personnel" for time period TZ2 are the three kids staff members KS1, KS2, and KS3.
Similarly, the "confirmed KS personnel" during time period TZ3 are the two kids staff members KS2 and KS3.
Similarly, the "confirmed KS person in charge" during time period TZ4 is one of the kids staff members, KS3.

In this manner, the shift determination unit 315 determines the confirmed KS person in charge. Although not shown in the figure, the shift determination unit 315 may further recalculate the number of WS+KS children after determining the confirmed KS person in FIG. 18 .
That is, the number of WS+KS children may increase due to the children accompanying the child staff KS who has been added as a confirmed KS person in charge. By recalculating the number of WS+KS children, it is possible to determine whether or not an additional child staff KS is needed.

Above, using Figures 16 to 18, we have explained an example of determining work schedules (shifts) for working staff WS and kids staff KS at various times of the day.

FIG. 19 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a flow of shift determination executed by a shift management server having the functional configuration of FIG.
Here, the "shift determination process" of the shift management system SYS2 is a process for determining the shifts of the working staff WS and the kids staff KS, which is executed by the shift management server of FIG.
When a situation arises where it is necessary to create shifts for the working staff WS and the kids staff KS at Mama Square (such as when deciding the shifts for the following week), the shift decision process is started and the following steps S21 to S25 are executed.

That is, in step S21, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 acquires information regarding the work schedule related to the desk work of the working staff WS as WS shift information.

In step S22, the WS child information acquisition unit 312 acquires information about the child accompanying the working staff member WS when performing desk work as WS child information.

In step S23, the KS shift information acquisition unit 313 acquires information regarding the work schedule of the kids staff KS related to supervision and childcare as KS shift information.

In step S24, the KS child information acquisition unit 314 acquires information about the child that the kids staff KS accompanies when performing supervision and childcare as KS child information.

In step S25, the shift decision unit 315 decides the work schedule for the working staff WS and the kids staff KS based on the WS shift information acquired in step S21, the WS child information acquired in step S22, the KS shift information acquired in step S23, and the KS child information acquired in step S24.

In the explanation using FIG. 15, the shift decision unit 315 decided on the working staff WS based on the amount of cases (constraint factor 1). In addition, the shift decision unit 315 tentatively decided on the kids staff KS based on the number of children of the working staff WS (constraint factor 2). That is, in the explanation using FIG. 15, the shift decision unit 315 made each decision in stages. As shown in the flowchart in FIG. 19, the shift decision unit 315 can comprehensively process the above-mentioned processing based on the WS shift information, WS children information, KS shift information, and KS children information.

This completes the shift decision process.

The shift management system SYS2 has been described above using Figures 12 to 19.
The matching system SYS3 will be described below with reference to FIGS.

As explained using Figure 2, the matching system SYS3 is a system that aims to match mother U1 with companies with an eye to the future, such as her career development and her children's growth. Once her children reach "middle school, high school, and college," mother U1's lifestyle becomes such that she does not need to pay as much attention to them. Mothers who want to work will choose a job based on their past careers and their vision for the future, with an eye toward their "ideals and future." The matching system SYS3 can provide support to mothers at this stage who want to work, such as suggesting better workplaces.

FIG. 20 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of an overview of a service to which the matching system of FIG. 3 is applied.
Figure 20 shows company information I1, which is basic information such as the work content presented by a company when matching with dispatch work, and job information I2, which is the characteristics of the human resources required by the company's human resources department and the actual on-site staff.

Company information I1 states "(Quantitative) As-Is." In other words, company information I1 is basic information such as the job content presented by companies when matching with temporary staffing jobs. In other words, matching at current temporary staffing agencies is performed only based on basic, quantitative information such as information shared among regular temporary staffing agencies and information listed in so-called job postings. This service also performs matching based on the information shown in company information I1.

For example, matching in a current temporary staffing agency is applied for through a "Web form." Specifically, for example, a company requesting temporary staffing inputs information such as "company name,""departmentname,""person in charge,""TEL,""MAIL,""address,""place of employment," and "inquiry" through the "Web form" as shown in FIG. 20. Next, a person in charge of the temporary staffing agency conducts a "phone/interview interview" with a user who wishes to be matched based on the information input into the Web form. Specifically, for example, a person in charge of the temporary staffing agency conducts a "phone/interview interview" with a user who wishes to be matched based on the information input into the Web form as shown in FIG. 20. Specifically, for example, a person in charge of the temporary staffing agency conducts a "phone/interview interview" with information such as "job type,""jobcontent,""dispatch period (long term/short term)," and "working conditions (hours, days of the week, etc.)," as shown in FIG. 20.
That is, first, the staff at the staffing company performed matching based on the information provided by the company requesting the staffing service and the results of telephone and interview interviews with the user who desired matching.

To sum up, in the past, staff at temporary staffing companies performed matching based on basic company information, which is basic information about the company provided by the client company, and details of the work requested for dispatch, which is details of the work requested for dispatch. In other words, staff at conventional temporary staffing companies performed matching based only on basic quantitative information.
For this reason, conventional matching had the problem of being unable to respond to the user's future career aspirations, which differ from the user's resume or professional resume at the time of matching.
In order to solve such problems (issues), a matching system SYS3 related to this service is provided.

In other words, the matching system SYS3 related to this service can also perform matching based on job information I2, which is the characteristics of the personnel required by the human resources department of a company or at the actual workplace.

The job information I2 states "(Current, Qualitative) To-Be." In other words, the job information I2, which is the nature of the personnel required by the human resources department of the company or the actual workplace, interviews the company on a qualitative basis about the personnel it desires.
Specifically, for example, the matching system SYS3 relating to this service asks the following questions to the human resources department of a company or to the person in charge at the actual workplace in order to gauge the characteristics of the personnel.

The service provider M asks the person in charge of the company to which the employee is dispatched a question such as "Q1: When making a decision (cooperativeness or self-assertiveness)". In the example of Fig. 20, the company answers that it is looking for a human resource with the mindset of "valuing one's own sense of satisfaction" out of "respecting the opinions of those around you" and "valuing one's own sense of satisfaction".
In addition, the service provider M asks the person in charge of the client company a question such as "Q2: My friend did something bad (strict adherence to rules or flexibility)." In the example of FIG. 20, the company answers that it is looking for personnel with the mindset of "paying attention" out of "paying attention" and "overlooking."

The matching system SYS3 for this service can select the type of talent a company is looking for by qualitatively interviewing the employees they are looking for, and reflect this in the matching results based on a more detailed assumption of the person.

As explained with reference to FIG. 3, the matching system SYS3 can acquire various information from the mother information DM and child information DK stored in the above-mentioned Mother Mask DB2. As shown in FIG. 20, Mother Mask DB2 stores information such as "personal data (e.g., mother resume information DMIB in FIG. 8, etc.)," "past business performance (e.g., mother company input information DMIC in FIG. 8)," and "wet information (e.g., mother mentality information DMMT in FIG. 8)." Based on the mother mentality information DMMT stored in Mother Mask DB2, the matching system SYS3 can determine whether or not mother U1 has the mentality corresponding to the above-mentioned questions.

The matching system SYS3 related to this service is a system that can match jobs based on company information (quantitative information), job information (qualitative information), and various data held by Mamask DB2, as shown in FIG. 20. Furthermore, Mamask DB2 stores various data related to multiple users. In other words, the matching system SYS3 can extract information suited to a user from the matching data of other users who are third parties.

FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a configuration related to a matching system in the information processing system of FIG.
As shown in FIG. 21, the matching system SYS3 is configured by connecting a matching server 4, a mother mask DB 2, an administrator terminal 5, mother terminals 6-1 to 6-n, and company terminals 7-1 to 7-m to each other via a predetermined network N such as the Internet.

The functional configuration of the matching server 4 shown in FIG. 22 will be explained below using an example of matching for Ms. Tanaka, the mother U1 shown in FIG. 9.

As described above in the explanation of Figure 9, it is assumed that mother U1-1, whose child has become an "elementary school student," wishes to "work as a full-time employee now that her child has entered elementary school and childcare has settled down," and "return to her previous job before pregnancy and childbirth." The matching system SYS3 related to this service is used in such cases.

Figure 22 is a functional block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the matching server in Figure 21.

For simplicity's sake, in the explanation of Figure 22, it will be assumed that there is only one mother's terminal 6 and one company's terminal 7.

In the CPU 41, when the execution of the matching process of the third service, i.e., the service that provides company matching, is controlled, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412, the child information acquisition unit 413, the employment preference information acquisition unit 414, and the employment candidate determination unit 415 function.

First, although not shown in the figure, as described above, a person in charge of a company requesting a dispatch job inputs company information I1, which is basic information such as the job content presented by the company in matching for the dispatch job, using the company terminal 7. The company terminal 7 transmits the company information I1 to the matching server 4.
The matching server 4 acquires various information for matching based on the company information I1 transmitted from the company terminal 7.
In order to realize the acquisition of these various pieces of information, a mother invariant information acquisition section 411, a mother variable information acquisition section 412, and a child information acquisition section 413 function.

The mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 acquires information on the occupation of mother U1 that cannot be changed by mother U1 as mother invariant information DMI. That is, for example, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 acquires information including mother resume information DMIB and mother company input information DMIC from the mother mask DB2 as mother invariant information DMI. Specifically, for example, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 acquires information such as "Accounting clerk at a trading company for 5 years (full-time employee, no job changes)", "English proficiency test score 800", and "Management experience" as the mother resume information DMIB1-3 as shown in FIG. 9, which is the same as the mother resume information DMIB1-1. Also, for example, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 acquires information such as "Achieved profitability of base" and "Personnel evaluation XXX" as the mother company input information DMIC1-3 as shown in FIG. 9.

The mother variable information acquisition unit 412 acquires information about the occupation of mother U1 that may vary depending on the mother as mother variable information DMM. That is, for example, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412 acquires information including mother base information DMMB and mother career development information DMMC from mother mask DB2 as mother variable information DMM. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412 acquires, as mother base information DMMB1-3, information that is the same as that of mother base information DMMB1-2, such as "employment insurance/social insurance enrollment," "full-time work, 5 days a week," and "work area within 15 minutes." In addition, for example, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412 acquires, as mother career development information DMMC1-3, information such as "preferred to be a full-time employee," "work area within 1 hour," and "preferred to be in the same industry as previous job."

The child information acquisition unit 413 acquires information about the child of mother U1 as child information DK. That is, the child information acquisition unit 413 acquires information including child immutable information DKI and child variable information DKM from the mother mask DB2 as child information DK. Specifically, for example (not shown), the child information acquisition unit 413 acquires information such as starting elementary school next year, which is included in the child base information DKMB from the child variable information DKM.

The employment desire information acquisition unit 414 acquires, as employment desire information, information on individuals desired to be employed by the company representative U2 in one or more organizations.
Specifically, for example, the employment desire information acquisition unit 414 acquires, as shown in Fig. 9, job information I2 that is the characteristics of personnel required by the human resources department of a company or the person in charge at the actual work site, such as "experienced office worker,""office software certification, bookkeeping qualification,""workplace: business establishment," and "work style: five days a week (Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays off)." Although not shown in the figure, as described above, job information I2 includes information on the type of thinking that a company is looking for in personnel.

The employment candidate determination unit 415 determines candidate organizations for the mother's employment based on the mother invariant information DMI acquired by the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411, the mother variable information DMM acquired by the mother variable information acquisition unit 412, the child information DK acquired by the child information acquisition unit 413, and the employment preference information acquired by the employment preference information acquisition unit 414.

The employment candidate determination unit 415 notifies the manager terminal 5, the mother's terminal 6, and the company terminal 7 of the organizations that are candidates for the mother's employment as a result of the matching.
Furthermore, the employment candidate determining unit 415 accumulates the organization where the mother is employed as a result of matching in the mother mask DB 2 as the mother's career.

The functional configuration of the matching server 4 shown in Fig. 22 has been described above using an example of matching for Ms. Tanaka, who is the mother U1 shown in Fig. 9. That is, it has been described with reference to Fig. 22 that the matching server 4 can match a job for Ms. Tanaka, who is the mother U1, based on company information (quantitative information), job information (qualitative information), and various data held by the Mommask DB2.
An example of matching between Ms. Suzuki and Ms. Sato, who are mothers U1 using the matching system SYS3, will be described below with reference to FIGS. 23 and 24, respectively.

Figure 23 shows an example of mother information that changes with the lifestyle of a mother who uses each of the various types of support provided by the service shown in Figure 3, and is different from the example shown in Figure 9.

The example of Fig. 23 shows an example in which the mother information DM1 of the mother U1-2 (Ms. Suzuki) changes with changes in her lifestyle when the mother U1-2 uses each of the various types of support of the service shown in Fig. 3. Here, in Fig. 23, the mother information DM2 of the mother U1-2 is shown as mother information DM2-1 to DM2-4 in each of four stages.
Incidentally, the mother resume information DMIB2-1 to DMIB2-4 and the mother company input information DMIC2-1 to DMIC2-4 included in the mother immutable information DMI2-1 to DMI2-4 respectively have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Similarly, the mother base information DMMB2-1 to DMMB2-4, the mother career formation information DMMC2-1 to DMMC2-4, and the mother thinking information DMIT2-1 to DMIT2-4 included in the mother variable information DMM2-1 to DMM2-4 respectively have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Although not shown in the figures, in the explanation of Fig. 23, various information will be explained by assigning the above-mentioned symbols.

Here, mother U1-2 with a one-year-old child has the desire and desire to be able to work without straining herself while raising her child, and would like to register with Mama Square as a user in charge of work including so-called monitoring and childcare in Mama Square described above.
Specifically, for example, mother U1-2 may wish to "save a little more for my child" and "I would like to work to a reasonable extent within the scope of my dependent status, but part-time work means I won't be able to put my child in nursery school, so some other arrangement would be better."

The mother information DM2-1 is the content of the mother information DM regarding the mother U1-2 at the stage (first stage) when the use of this service is started. Here, within the mother information DM2-1, the mother invariant information DMI2-1 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-2, and the mother variable information DMM2-1 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-2.

Specifically, the information "service and customer service occupation 2 years", "no qualifications", and "no regular employment experience" is stored as mother resume information DMIB2-1 in the mother information DM2-1.
Furthermore, in the mother's information DM2-1, the mother's company input information DMIC2-1 stores information "Joined KS."
Here, "KS" refers to the kids' staff KS in the above explanation of Mama Square. That is, when the mother U1-2 registers with this service, she is initially employed as a kids' staff KS. The service provider M can determine the job title and treatment of the mother U1-2 based on the mother's resume information DMIB and the mother's preferred working style.

In addition, the mother base information DMMB2-1 of the mother information DM2-1 stores information such as "Want to work 2-3, 4 hours a week" and "Available for help." Being able to help means taking over a shift in case another employee (e.g., another childcare staff member) is suddenly absent. Similarly, being able to take over a shift in case another employee of another business establishment (e.g., Mama Square in another location) is suddenly absent.
Moreover, in the mother's career development information DMMC2-1 of the mother's information DM2-1, information "no particular career development" is stored.
Moreover, the mother's thinking information DMMT2-1 in the mother's information DM2-1 stores information on the "balanced type."
Here, the "balanced type" refers to a type of work style that does not involve working long hours full-time, but rather balances work time with time for private life such as child rearing. For example, according to the mother base information DMMB2-1 and the mother career development information DMMC2-1, it can be seen that mother U1-2 limits her work hours to a certain extent and does not have many goals for career development at this point in time. For example, the mother mindset information acquisition unit 143 can acquire the "balanced type" as the mother mindset information DMMT2-1 based on this information.

Next, assume that mother U1-2, whose child has now turned two years old, wishes to work harder since her child is now in nursery school.
Mother U1-2 also hopes that "my child was accepted into nursery school thanks to working at Mama Square" and "I would also like to obtain a childcare-related qualification."
The mother information DM2-2 is the content of the mother information DM about the mother U1-2 whose child has turned "2 years old" at the stage (second stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM2-2, the mother invariable information DMI2-2 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-2, and the mother variable information DMM2-2 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-2.
In the explanation of Fig. 23, the mother information DM being blank indicates that the same information as the previous mother information is stored. That is, the mother resume information DMIB2-2 and the mother mindset information DMMT2-2 of the mother information DM2-2 are the same as the mother resume information DMIB2-1 and the mother mindset information DMMT2-1 of the mother information DM2-1, respectively.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI2-2 has not been changed by the mother. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM2-2 has items that have been changed by the mother. The points that have been changed in the mother information DM2-2 will be described below.

Furthermore, in the mother's information DM2-2, the mother's company input information DMIC2-2 stores information such as "help available once every two weeks" and "selected as KS training manager."
Moreover, the mother base information DMMB2-2 of the mother information DM2-2 stores information on "4 days a week, full-time work."
Moreover, in the mother information DM2-2, the mother career development information DMMC2-2 stores information that says "Currently trying to obtain a childcare worker qualification."

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM2-2 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-2. That is, in this example, the mother company input information DMIC2-2 is updated based on the input of the company representative U2 and the service provider M, and the mother base information DMMB2-2 and the mother career development information DMMC2-2 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-2.

Next, let us assume that the mother U1-2, whose child has now turned "5 years old," wishes that her child "wants to study more" and "wants to see various work sites."
Mother U1-2 also expressed her desire to "gain more knowledge while studying to become a nursery teacher" and "see other work sites besides Mama Square."
The mother information DM2-3 is the content of the mother information DM about the mother U1-2 whose child has turned "5 years old" at the stage (third stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM2-3, the mother invariable information DMI2-3 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-2, and the mother variable information DMM2-3 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-2.
In the mother information DM2-3, the mother resume information DMIB2-3, the mother base information DMMB2-3, and the mother mentality information DMMT2-3 of the mother information DM2-3 that are left blank are the same as the respective information in the mother information DM2-2.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI2-3 is not changed by the mother. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM2-3 has items that are changed by the mother. The points that are changed in the mother information DM2-3 will be described below.

Moreover, the mother base information DMMB2-3 of the mother information DM2-3 stores information "able to work full-time, five days a week."
Moreover, in the mother information DM2-3, the mother company input information DMIC2-3 stores information "helpful."
Moreover, in the mother career development information DMMC2-3 of the mother information DM2-3, information "I want to gain more knowledge" is stored in place of the information added in the mother career development information DMMC1-2.

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM2-3 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-2. That is, in this example, the mother's company input information DMIC2-2 is updated based on the input of the company representative U2 and the service provider M, and the mother's base information DMMB2-2 and the mother's career development information DMMC2-3 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-2.

Details will be given later, but by using the matching system SYS3, mother U1-2 can receive the following support:

Also, to the right of mother information DM2-3, the result of matching system SYS3 is stated, which is that "because the staff wanted to gain experience, they were matched with 'in-hospital childcare' instead of a regular childcare facility."
That is, based on various information including the mother invariant information DMI2-3 and mother variable information DMM2-3 shown in FIG. 23 as described above, the matching system SYS3 determined that working at another business would be in line with the mother U1-2's wishes and would allow her to demonstrate her abilities.

Furthermore, FIG. 23 lists examples of the type of personnel companies are looking for. Specifically, it lists "persons with hostelry spirit," "preferential treatment for those with childcare or teaching licenses," "job type: childcare worker or assistant staff," "workplace: in-hospital nursery," and "work style: four days a week (including work on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays)." In other words, the matching system SYS3 stores information on personnel sought by multiple companies, and matches the above-mentioned jobs shown in FIG. 23 as jobs suitable for mother U1-2.

Next, let us assume that a mother U1-2 whose child has graduated or completed "junior high school, high school, or university" and needs to care for her parent wants to "work at Mama Square after all because I also have to care for my parent."
Furthermore, mother U1-2 is assumed to have the desire to "after all work at Mama Square because I have to care for my parents" and "to share the know-how I have acquired from other people with Mama Square and contribute to improving the kids' staff KS."
The mother information DM2-4 is the content of the mother information DM about the mother U1-2 after her child graduates from "junior high school, high school, or university" at the stage (fourth stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM2-4, the mother immutable information DMI2-4 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-2, and the mother variable information DMM2-4 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-1.
In the mother information DM2-4, the mother resume information DMIB2-4 and the mother company input information DMIB2-4 of the mother information DM2-4 that are left blank are the same as the information in the mother information DM2-3. That is, the mother resume information DMIB2-4 and the mother mentality information DMMT2-4 of the mother information DM1-2 are the same as the mother resume information DMIB2-3 and the mother mentality information DMMT2-3 of the mother information DM1-2.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI2-4 is not changed by the mother. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM2-4 has items that are changed by the mother. The points that are changed in the mother information DM2-4 will be described below.

Moreover, the mother base information DMMB2-4 of the mother information DM2-4 stores information "able to work full-time, five days a week."
Moreover, in the mother career development information DMMC2-4 of the mother information DM2-4, information such as "obtaining a childcare worker qualification" and "aiming to become a manager" is stored.
Moreover, in the mother information DM2-4, the mother's mindset information DMMT2-4 stores information on the "balanced type leaning towards a career woman."

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM2-4 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-2. That is, in this example, the mother base information DMMB2-2, the mother career development information DMMC2-2, and the mother career development information DMMC2-3 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-2.

To summarise the above, the matching system SYS3 can match users based on the wishes of the mother U1-2, who wishes to "gain more knowledge" or "see other workplaces". Furthermore, the mother's thinking information DMMT2-4 can be updated based on experiences at other matched business establishments (for example, an in-hospital nursery). The matching system SYS3 can also make it possible for the mother U1-2 to work at Mama Square again. In this way, the matching system SYS3 can suggest qualifications that will contribute to appropriate career development by matching with the human resources that companies are looking for based on the mother information DM2-3 and mother information 2-4.

An example of matching for Ms. Suzuki, who is the mother U1 using the matching system SYS3, has been described above with reference to FIG.
An example of matching for Ms. Sato, who is a mother U1 using the matching system SYS3, will be described below with reference to FIG.
FIG. 24 is a diagram showing an example of mother information that changes with the lifestyle of a mother who uses each of the various types of support of the present service shown in FIG. 3, which is different from the examples shown in FIG. 9 and FIG.

The example of Fig. 24 shows an example in which the mother information DM3 of the mother U1-3 (Ms. Sato) changes with changes in her lifestyle when she uses each of the various types of support provided by the service shown in Fig. 3. Here, in Fig. 24, the mother information DM3 of the mother U1-3 is shown as mother information DM3-1 to DM3-3 in three stages.
Incidentally, the mother resume information DMIB3-1 to DMIB3-3 and the mother company input information DMIC3-1 to DMIC3-3 included in the mother immutable information DMI3-1 to DMI3-1, respectively, have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Similarly, the mother base information DMMB3-1 to DMMB3-3, the mother career formation information DMMC3-1 to DMMC3-3, and the mother thinking information DMIT3-1 to DMIT3-3 included in the mother variable information DMM3-1 to DMM3-3, respectively, have the same configuration as that described in Fig. 8. Although not shown in the figures, in the explanation of Fig. 24, various information will be described with the above-mentioned symbols.

Specifically, for example, a mother U1-3 with a one-year-old child has the desire and desire to be able to "utilize her call center experience" and "work to supplement the household income while prioritizing her child," and would like to register with Mama Square as a user who will be in charge of work including so-called desk work at Mama Square as described above.
In addition, mother U1-3 is assumed to have wishes such as, "I want to work at Mama Square where it is easy to work even if I prioritize my family,""Work is important, but my family comes first," and "But management positions are cool, so I'd like to become one if I can."

The mother information DM3-1 is the content of the mother information DM regarding the mother U1-3 at the stage (first stage) when the use of this service is started. Here, within the mother information DM3-1, the mother invariant information DMI3-1 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-3, and the mother variable information DMM3-1 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-3.

Specifically, the information "Call center occupation: 5 years,""Noqualifications," and "No regular employment experience" is stored as mother resume information DMIB3-1 in the mother information DM3-1.
Moreover, in the mother information DM3-1, the mother company input information DMIC3-1 stores information on "joined at OP."
Here, "OP" is the job title of operator. That is, the mother U1-3 is employed as a telephone operator by making use of her experience in a call center. The service provider M can determine the job title and treatment of the mother U1-3 based on the mother resume information DMIB.

Moreover, the mother base information DMMB3-1 of the mother information DM3-1 stores information such as "Want to work 3-4 6 hours a week" and "No use of kids room (kindergarten)."
Moreover, in the mother career development information DMMC3-1 of the mother information DM3-1, information "aspiring to be a manager" is stored.
Moreover, in the mother information DM3-1, the mother's mindset information DMMT3-1 stores information of the "family priority type."
Here, the "family priority type" means a type that prioritizes family over work. That is, the mother's thinking information acquisition unit 143 can acquire the mother's thinking information DMMT3-1 based on the desired information of the mother U1-3.

Next, let us assume that mother U1-3, whose child is now "four years old," wishes to "raise her salary."
In addition, mother U1-3 is assumed to wish to "get a job that gives incentives because my performance is always good" and "if possible, I would like to work for another company."
The mother information DM3-2 is the content of the mother information DM about the mother U1-3 whose child has turned "4 years old" at the stage (second stage) of continuing to use the service. Here, among the mother information DM3-2, the mother immutable information DMI3-2 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-3, and the mother variable information DMM3-2 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-3.
In the explanation of Fig. 24, when the mother information DM is blank, it means that the same information as the previous mother information is stored. That is, the mother resume information DMIB3-2 and the mother mindset information DMMT3-2 of the mother information DM3-2 are the same as the mother resume information DMIB3-1 and the mother mindset information DMMT3-1 of the mother information DM3-1, respectively.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI3-2 has not been changed by the mother. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM3-2 has items that have been changed by the mother. The points that have been changed in the mother information DM3-2 will be described below.

Furthermore, in the mother's information DM3-2, the mother's company input information DMIC3-2 stores information such as "KPI is always at the TOP" and "Many days off due to children."
Moreover, the mother base information DMMB3-2 of the mother information DM3-2 stores information "able to work full-time, five days a week."
Furthermore, in the mother information DM3-2, the mother career development information DMMC3-2 stores information such as "Available work area within 1 hour" and "Hourly wage: XXX or more."

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM3-2 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-3. That is, in this example, the mother company input information DMIC3-2 is updated based on the input of the company representative U2 and the service provider M, and the mother base information DMMB3-2 and the mother career development information DMMC3-2 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-3.

In addition, by using the matching system SYS3, mothers U1-3 can receive the following support:

In addition, to the right of the mother's information DM3-2, the results of the matching system SYS3 are listed, which are "matching based only on the conditions of both companies, and then re-matching with a company other than the person's desired job based on the evaluation at the dispatched company (attendance record, work performance, wet conditions, etc.)."
That is, based on various information including the mother invariant information DMI3-2 and mother variable information DMM3-2 shown in FIG. 24 as described above, the matching system SYS3 determined that mother U1-3 would be a good match by performing matching that directly links ability and salary and repeating the evaluation.

Next, it is assumed that mother U1-3, who has been continuously working using the matching system SYS3, thinks that she is happy that she "has finally found the job she wants after changing dispatch destinations several times."
Specifically, for example, mother U1-3 thinks, "I used to think that work equaled money, but by gaining experience at various dispatched companies, I was able to find what I want to do," and "Now, work equals meaning in life, and I have found something rewarding and meaningful to do outside of my family."
The mother information DM3-3 is the content of the mother information DM about the mother U1-3 who has repeatedly used the matching system SYS3 at the stage of continuing to use the service (third stage). Here, among the mother information DM3-3, the mother invariant information DMI3-3 is information that cannot be changed by the mother U1-3, and the mother variable information DMM3-3 is information that can be changed by the mother U1-3.
In the mother information DM3-3, the mother resume information DMIB3-3 and the mother base information DMMB3-3 of the mother information DM3-3 that are left blank are the same as the respective information in the mother information DM3-2.
That is, the mother invariant information DMI3-3 is not changed by the mother. On the other hand, the mother variable information DMM3-3 has items that are changed by the mother. The points that are changed in the mother information DM3-3 will be described below.

In the mother career development information DMMC3-3 of the mother information DM3-3, information such as "Currently studying to obtain Level 2 bookkeeping certification" and "Want to seek full-time employment in accounting" is stored in place of the information added in the mother career development information DMMC3-2.
Moreover, in the mother information DM3-3, the mother's thinking information DMMT3-3 stores information on the "balanced type" instead of the information on the mother's thinking information DMMT3-1.

In this way, the various information constituting the mother information DM3-3 is updated and stored in accordance with changes in the lifestyle of the mother U1-3, etc. In other words, in this example, the mother career development information DMMC3-3 and the mother mindset information DMMT3-3 are updated based on the input of the mother U1-3.
Furthermore, by using the matching system SYS3, the mother U1-3 in the example of FIG. 23 is able to view work as something worthwhile rather than simply in monetary terms, and is able to develop her career.

FIG. 25 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of a job matching process for a mother, which is executed by a matching server having the functional configuration of FIG.
Here, the "matching process" of the matching system SYS3 refers to a process executed by the matching server in FIG. 22, which performs matching for the mother U1 and determines job candidates.
When a request for matching by the mother U1 is accepted, the matching process is started and the following steps S31 to S35 are executed.

That is, in step S31, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 acquires information about the job of mother U1 that cannot be changed by mother U1 (e.g., mother resume information DMIB and mother company input information DMIC) as mother invariant information DMI.

In step S32, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412 acquires information that can be varied by mother U1 in her occupation (e.g., mother base information DMMB, mother career development information DMMC, and mother thinking information DMMT) as mother variable information DMM.

In step S33, the child information acquisition unit 413 acquires information about the child of the mother U1 (e.g., child immutable information DKI and child variable information DKM) as child information DK.

In step S34, the employment desire information acquisition unit 414 acquires information about individuals desired to be employed by the company representative U2 in one or more organizations as employment desire information.

In step S35, the employment candidate determination unit 415 determines candidate organizations for the mother's employment based on the mother's invariant information DMI obtained in step S31, the mother's variable information DMM obtained in step S32, the child information DK obtained in step S33, and the employment preference information obtained in step S34.
This completes the matching process.
The matching system SYS3 has been described below with reference to FIGS.

Although each embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and the present invention includes modifications, improvements, etc. within the scope that can achieve the object of the present invention.

For example, in the above description of the MAMASK DB system SYS1, the MAMASK DB2 has been described as storing the mother information DM and the child information DK in a linked manner, but it may also be configured as follows.
FIG. 26 is a diagram for explaining an example of the relationship between each type of mother managed by the Mother Mask DB system of FIG. 2 and each amount of information constituting the Mother Mask DB.

Figure 26 lists "System target range/volume of information." In other words, there are several ranges of mothers that are the target of the database system stored in Mamask DB2, depending on the type of registration. That is, as shown in Figure 26, there are "Mama Square supporting moms," "Mama Square applicant moms," "Directly employed moms," and "Temporarily employed moms."

"Mama Square Support Moms" are mothers who support the service and actively obtain information about the service, but do not actually apply (participate). Specifically, mothers who provide information, including some personal information, by requesting materials, subscribing to e-mail newsletters, or answering questionnaires are included in Mama Square Support Moms.
"Mama Square applicant moms" are mothers who wish to participate in the service and have applied to become users of the service. In other words, Mama Square applicant moms provide more information to the service provider M compared to Mama Square support moms. Specifically, for example, mothers who provide information such as resumes and desired employment status are included in Mama Square applicant moms. Also, for example, mothers who applied to Mama Square but were not hired are included in applicant moms.
A "directly employed mom" is a mother who actually works (or has worked) as a work staff member WS or a kids staff member KS at Mama Square. In other words, a directly employed mom provides more information to the service provider M than a mom who applies to Mama Square.
A "temporarily employed mother" is a mother who actually works (or has worked) at a dispatched workplace using the matching system SYS3, etc. In other words, a temporary employed mother provides more information to the service provider M than a Mama Square applicant mother.

To summarise the above, as shown in Figure 26, the amount of DB information contained in Mama Mask DB2 is greater for moms who apply to Mama Square than for moms who support Mama Square. Also, the amount of DB information contained in Mama Mask DB2 is greater for directly employed moms and temporary employed moms than for moms who apply to Mama Square.

Also, as shown in FIG. 26, Mama Mask DB2 may be stored including two DBs. That is, Mama Mask DB2 may include a Mama Mask Mate DB that stores information on Mama Square supporting moms and Mama Square applicant moms, and an employee DB that stores information on directly employed moms and temporary employed moms.

For example, in the above description of the Mamask DB system SYS1, Mamask DB2 is a database relating to mothers U1 who wish to work or who are working, but this is not particularly limited. In other words, Mamask DB2 can be a database relating to users who wish to work or who are working. Specifically, for example, if the user is a father with children, it can achieve the same effect as a mother with children. Furthermore, Mamask DB2 is a database that can help provide various job-related services and suggestions to natural persons without children, responding to life events not only in the present but also over a long period of time, such as life events from the past to the future, over a period of 10 years or more.

For example, in the above description of the Mamask DB system SYS1, Mamask DB2 stores information relating to a mother and her children in a linked manner, but this is not limited to this. That is, it is sufficient to store information that cannot be changed by the user, information that can be changed by the user, and information relating to a natural person associated with the user in a linked manner. Specifically, for example, the natural person associated with the user may be a person in need of care, etc. In this case, that is, if the natural person associated with the user is a natural person who affects the user's life events, various effects can be achieved. For example, the natural person associated with the user may be a dual-income spouse, etc. In other words, if the natural person associated with the user is a natural person who affects the user's life events, various effects can be achieved.

For example, in the above description of the shift management system SYS2, the shift management system SYS2 is used to manage the schedules of the work staff WS who perform work including so-called desk work in an organization and the kids staff KS who perform work including so-called watching and childcare, but this is not limited to this. That is, it is sufficient if the information processing device is used to manage the schedules of a user who performs a first job in an organization and a second user who performs a second job in the organization. Specifically, for example, the work staff WS and the kids staff KS do not both have to be mothers with children. For example, the second user may be a full-time childcare worker who does not bring along children. Even in this case, the same effect is achieved as when the second user who is a mother who brings along a child and who performs watching and childcare as the second job uses the system. For example, the second job is not limited to a job including so-called watching and childcare. Specifically, for example, if it is a job in which it is desirable to change the number of second users who perform the second job depending on the number of users who perform the first job, appropriate shift management is performed.

For example, the WS shift information in the above description of the shift management system SYS2 may include the following information. The WS shift information may include information such as which desk work the mother U1, who is a candidate for working staff WS, would like to be in charge of. Specifically, for example, in the example of FIG. 16, the working staff WS can input information such as "I would rather work on case A than case B" as the WS shift information. In other words, the shift decision unit 315, which acquires this information as the WS shift information, can decide which cases the working staff WS will be in charge of based on this information.

For example, in the explanation of the shift management system SYS2 above, the safety staffing standard has been described as "one kids staff KS for a maximum of four children," but this is not particularly limited. That is, the safety staffing standard can be determined arbitrarily by the service provider M, or it may be determined automatically by the shift decision unit 315. Specifically, for example, the younger the children are, the more care may be required. That is, the shift decision unit 315 may determine it based on the age of the children, etc.

For example, in the explanation of the shift management system SYS2 above, group G is a group that indicates the child watch/care assigned to the kids staff KS, but the kids staff KS may watch/care for children without being assigned to a specific child. In other words, group G may be used simply to determine the number of children relative to the safety placement standards, or may be used to notify all or specific kids staff in advance that there are children who need attention. This can improve safety in watching over and caring for children.

For example, the WS child information and KS child information in the above-mentioned description of the shift management system SYS2 may include the following information. That is, the WS child information and KS child information may be input by the mother U1 of the candidate for working staff WS or kids staff KS, such as which child she will bring along. Specifically, for example, a mother U1 who is a candidate for working staff WS with two children can send information such as "On one day, only the older child will go out to play with a friend's family, so only the younger child will accompany me" as WS shift information. This allows the shift decision unit 315 described later to change the number of kids staff KS based not only on the child information DK contained in the mother mask DB2, but also on whether the number of children changes on a certain day.

In addition, for example, in the above description of the matching system SYS3, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412, and the child information acquisition unit 413 of the matching server 4 acquire information on the mother U1 and the child of the mother U1, but this is not particularly limited. That is, for example, when matching the mother U1, the mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 can acquire information on the mother U2 who is different from the mother U1. This allows, for example, career matching (and career proposals, etc.) to be performed based on the success story of the mother U2 who has a career and experience similar to that of the mother U1. Similarly, the mother variable information acquisition unit 412 and the child information acquisition unit 413 can also acquire information on other mothers U2 and the children of other mothers U2, not limited to the mother U1. In this case, the employment candidate determination unit 415 can match the mother U1 based on the information on the mother U2 who is different from the mother U1. This allows the matching system SYS3 to extract information suitable for the user (mother U1) from the matching data of the other user (mother U2) who is a third party.

In addition, for example, in the above description of the matching system SYS3, the matching server 4 is used by a mother U1 who wishes to work, and can determine organizations that are candidates for employment for the mother U1 based on information about the mother U1's child, but this is not particularly limited. That is, any information processing device that can be used by a user who wishes to work (for example, the mother U1 in the specification) will suffice. Specifically, for example, if the user is a father with children, the same effect can be achieved as for a mother with children. Furthermore, the matching system SYS3 can also be applied to users who do not have children. In this case, organizations that are candidates for employment are determined based on information that cannot be changed by the user and information that can be changed. As a result, for example, information that cannot be changed by the user becomes information that cannot be tampered with by the user, which can help ensure the reliability of the information.

Furthermore, for example, the series of processes described above can be executed by hardware or software.
In other words, the functional configurations in FIG. 7, FIG. 14, and FIG. 22 are merely examples and are not particularly limited.
That is, it is sufficient that the information processing system is provided with a function capable of executing the above-mentioned series of processes as a whole, and the type of functional block used to realize this function is not limited to the examples in Figures 7, 14, and 22. The locations of the functional blocks are also not limited to those in Figures 7, 14, and 22, and may be arbitrary. For example, the functional block of the database management server 1 may be transferred to the mother terminal 6 or the like. Conversely, the functional block of the mother terminal 6 may be transferred to the database management server 1 or the like.
Furthermore, one functional block may be configured as a single piece of hardware, a single piece of software, or a combination of both.

When the series of processes is executed by software, the program constituting the software is installed into a computer or the like from a network or a recording medium.
The computer may be a computer implemented in dedicated hardware.
Furthermore, the computer may be a computer capable of executing various functions by installing various programs, such as a server, a general-purpose smartphone, or a personal computer.

The recording medium containing such a program may be configured not only as a removable medium (not shown) that is distributed separately from the device body in order to provide the program to the user, but also as a recording medium that is provided to the user in a state where it is already installed in the device body.

In this specification, the steps of describing a program to be recorded on a recording medium include not only processes that are performed chronologically according to the order, but also processes that are not necessarily performed chronologically but are executed in parallel or individually.
In addition, in this specification, the term "system" refers to an overall device that is composed of a plurality of devices, a plurality of means, etc.

In summary, an information processing system to which the present invention is applied can have the following configuration and can take a variety of different forms:

That is, an information processing device to which the present invention is applied (for example, the database management server 1 in FIG. 7)
An information processing device that can be used to configure or update a database (e.g., mother DB2 in FIG. 5) relating to a user who wishes to work or is currently working (e.g., mother U1 in FIG. 5),
A first acquisition means (e.g., the mother invariant information acquisition unit 121 in FIG. 7) for acquiring information that cannot be changed by the user in the user's occupation (e.g., the mother resume information DMIB and the mother company input information DMIC in FIG. 8) as first information (e.g., the mother invariant information DMI in FIG. 8);
A second acquisition means (e.g., the mother variable information acquisition unit 122 in FIG. 7) that acquires information that can be changed by the user in the user's occupation (e.g., the mother career formation information DMMC and the mother thinking information DMMT in FIG. 8) as second information (e.g., the mother variable information DMM in FIG. 8);
A storage unit (e.g., the storage unit 113 in FIG. 7 ) that associates the first information and the second information and stores them in a database for each user;
Any information processing device having the above will suffice.

This allows information that cannot be changed by the user and information that can be changed to be clearly stored in the database. That is, for example, by storing past information as information that cannot be changed, it is guaranteed that the information has not been tampered with by the user or other users. Also, for example, by storing current information as information that can be changed, the database becomes one that allows reference to information that reflects the user's current intentions, etc. That is, for example, it is possible to generate a database that accurately evaluates the user's past and also allows reference to the user's current intentions, etc.

The system further includes a third acquisition unit (e.g., the child information acquisition unit 112 in FIG. 7 ) for acquiring information on a natural person related to the user as third information,
The storage means includes:
The first information, the second information, and the third information can be linked and stored in a database for each of the users and the natural persons.

Furthermore, the first information may include at least information regarding the user's history (e.g., mother's resume information DMIB in FIG. 8) and information regarding the organization for which the user works (e.g., mother's company input information DMIC in FIG. 8).

Furthermore, the second information may include at least any of the following: information that forms the basis of the user's career aspirations (e.g., mother-based information DMMB in FIG. 8), information related to the user's career development (e.g., mother-career development information DMMC in FIG. 8), and information related to the user's lifestyle thoughts (e.g., mother-mindset information DMMT in FIG. 8).

Further, a digitization means (for example, the digitization evaluation unit 114 in FIG. 7 ) that digitizes and evaluates any one of the first information, the second information, and the third information;
The device may further include:

That is, an information processing device to which the present invention is applied (for example, the shift management server 3 in FIG. 14 )
A first user (e.g., a work staff member WS in FIG. 12 ) who performs a first job (e.g., a job including so-called desk work in the specification) in an organization;
A second user (e.g., a kids staff member KS in FIG. 12 ) who performs a second job (e.g., a job including so-called watching and childcare in the specification) in the organization;
An information processing device used for schedule management,
A first shift information acquisition means (for example, the WS shift information acquisition unit 311 in FIG. 14) that acquires information regarding a work schedule related to the first job of the first user as first shift information;
a first child information acquisition unit (e.g., the WS child information acquisition unit 312 in FIG. 14 ) that acquires information about a child accompanying the first user when the first user performs the first job as first child information;
A second shift information acquisition means (for example, the KS shift information acquisition unit 313 in FIG. 14) that acquires information regarding a work schedule related to the second job of the second user as second shift information;
A second child information acquisition means (e.g., the KS child information acquisition unit 314 in FIG. 14 ) that acquires, as second child information, information on a child that accompanies the second user when the second user performs the second job;
A shift determination means (e.g., a shift determination unit 315 in FIG. 14) that determines work schedules of the first user and the second user based on the first shift information, the first child information, the second shift information, and the second child information;
Any information processing device having the above will suffice.

This makes it possible to determine a more convenient work schedule in cases where a first user performing a first job, a second user performing a second job, and children accompanied by each user affect the work schedules of each user. For example, when the total number of children accompanied by each user is too large, the present invention makes it possible to determine a work schedule that prevents childcare facilities and the like from becoming overcrowded.

Furthermore, the second job includes at least a job of watching over and caring for the child accompanying the first user and the child accompanying the second user,
The first child information and the second child information include information on whether each of the children requires attention when being watched over or cared for,
The shift determination means can determine the number of the second users based on information on whether or not each of the children requires attention when being watched over or cared for.

Further, the first shift information includes information on the content of the first job and information on the strengths and weaknesses of the first user with respect to the content of a plurality of jobs,
The shift determination means can determine work schedules for the first user and the second user based on the content of the first job and information on the first user's strengths and weaknesses for multiple job contents.

That is, an information processing device to which the present invention is applied (for example, the matching server 4 in FIG. 22)
An information processing device that can be used by a user (e.g., a mother U1 in the specification) who wishes to find employment,
A first acquisition means (e.g., a mother invariant information acquisition unit 411 in FIG. 22 ) for acquiring information that cannot be changed by the user in the user's occupation (e.g., the mother resume information DMIB and the mother company input information DMIC in FIG. 8 ) as first information (e.g., the mother invariant information DMI in FIG. 8 );
A second acquisition means (e.g., a mother variable information acquisition unit 412 in FIG. 22) for acquiring information that can be changed by the user in the user's occupation (e.g., mother career formation information DMMC and mother thinking information DMMT in FIG. 8) as second information (e.g., mother variable information DMM in FIG. 8);
A third acquisition means (e.g., the employment request information acquisition unit 414 in FIG. 22 ) that acquires, in one or more organizations, information on persons the organizations wish to employ as third information;
An employment candidate determination means (e.g., the employment candidate determination unit 415 in FIG. 22 ) that determines organizations that are candidates for the user's place of employment based on the first information, the second information, and the third information;
Any information processing device having the above will suffice.

This allows potential employers to determine organizations based on information that cannot be changed by the user (immutable) and information that can be changed (mutable). That is, for example, by storing information such as a resume as unchangeable information, it is guaranteed that the information has not been tampered with by the user or other users. Also, for example, by storing the current user's intentions as changeable information, potential employers are determined based on the user's current intentions, etc. In other words, the system accurately evaluates the user's past and also determines potential employers based on the user's current intentions, etc.

Further, the device further includes a fourth acquisition means (for example, a child information acquisition unit 413 in FIG. 22 ) for acquiring information on a natural person (for example, a child in the specification) related to the user as fourth information,
The employment candidate determination means can determine organizations that are candidates for employment of the user based on the first information, the second information, the third information, and the fourth information.
