## Uniqueness of Pro-Shield
From the dual perspectives of employee health and corporate social responsibility, Pro-Shield scores and visualizes health and social risks based on medical check-up results. It creates an employee list showing priorities according to risk levels. This promotes the reduction and acceleration of the workload for HR managers and industrial physicians, contributing to the health management and fulfillment of social responsibilities of the client companies.
## Background of Development
In recent years, as 'Health and Productivity Management' gains attention, there have been several cases where companies lost credibility and were questioned about their health management when employees caused accidents leading to third-party injury or death during commutes or sales activities. Even when regular health exams are conducted as legally required, it is not easy for companies to respond quickly and appropriately to employees requiring detailed testing or treatment without professional advice. To solve this, a list was needed for HR managers without specialized medical knowledge to clarify the priority order based on risk size.
