FALL RISK DETERMINATION APPARATUS, FALL RISK DETERMINATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

The falling risk determination device includes the acquisition unit, the calculation unit, the measurement unit, and the determination unit. The acquisition unit acquires time-series data related to gravity center oscillation of the worker from a sensor unit provided at a leg portion of a high-place work tool on which the worker rides. The calculation unit calculates an evaluation value related to the gravity center oscillation from the time-series data. The measurement unit carries out a Stroop test on the worker in parallel with processing of acquiring time-series data, and measures the fatigue level of the worker using the result of the Stroop test. The determination unit determines that the falling risk is high in a case where the evaluation value is larger than an average value of past evaluation values corresponding to the fatigue level.
