Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a time and attendance management device for managing work attendance and leaving the office, and in particular is configured to have a time check function and display messages for specific individuals or specific sections. The present invention relates to a time and attendance management device.

(Prior Art) This type of attendance management device is generally called a time recorder and is widely used in the business community. Normally, this time recorder is a system in which each person under management inserts a piece of paper called a time card when they are dispatched to work and leaves the office, and records the time and obtains employment data for each vaccination. Systems using computers have been proposed in order to omit various manual calculations related to people's employment and to cope with the management of complex flextime, free time, shift work, and the like. The system using this computer generally has the following configuration. In other words, it consists of a host computer and a plurality of terminals connected to the host computer.A time card or ID card is inserted into this terminal device to obtain time data on attendance and departure, and this time data is transferred to the host computer. This host computer is configured to obtain various employment data based on various calculation formulas set in advance.

All of these conventional attendance and attendance management devices are intended only to obtain attendance and attendance data of the person being managed, and are not intended to be used as a means of communicating the intentions of the manager. It was something that wasn't there.

In particular, if a time differential system such as flextime, free time, or shift work, which has become rapidly popular in recent years, is introduced, each person's arrival and departure times will be different, and unified messages and messages for each individual and section will be sent to each person, such as morning meetings, etc. This has made communication difficult, and there has been a strong desire in the business community for a means to reliably convey messages from managers.

In view of the above, the inventors of the present invention have developed the present invention by focusing on the fact that the person under management always uses a time card at least twice a day and in the evening, and that each person uses an ID card with a different ID code at this time. I was able to complete it.

(Purpose of the Invention) The present invention is intended to meet the above-mentioned various demands, and can also be used as a reliable means of communicating intentions by displaying a message for a specific individual or specific section identified by an ID code on the time display for arrival and departure. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an attendance management device configured to be usable.

(Detailed Description of the Invention) Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings. In the figure, 1 indicates an attendance management device.

It is connected to the code identification mechanism 7 and is provided for selecting an ID message from the data memory 10 according to the ID code identified by the ID code identification mechanism 7. 1
2 is a display mechanism. This display mechanism 12 is connected to the time check mechanism 8 and the data selection mechanism 11, and is used to display the time check information output from the time check mechanism 8 and the ID message output from the data selection mechanism 11 on the display 13. It is set in.

Next, the usage and operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

First, the host computer 2 is activated, the ID message input mechanism 4 is operated, and an ID code for a specific individual or a specific section and an ID message desired to be transmitted are input. This ID message is stored in the data memory 10 in the terminal device 3 by the communication mechanism 5. The person to be managed must bring an ID card (not shown) to the computer when dispatched or leaving the office.
Insert it into the D card reader 6. Through this operation, the ID code identification mechanism 7 identifies the person as a specific individual, and the time check mechanism 8 checks the time. This time check information is displayed on the display 13 via the display mechanism 12 and stored in the TC data memory 9. This stored time check information is transmitted to the host computer 2 via the communication mechanism 5. The host computer 2 calculates various preset work data based on the transmitted time check information.

On the other hand, the ID code identification mechanism 7 outputs an ID code identification signal to the data selection mechanism 11. The data selection mechanism 11 selects an iD message corresponding to the ID code identification signal from the message data in the data memory 10 and displays it on the display 13 via the display mechanism 12.

Next, with reference to FIG.
