Original Abstract Submitted
Production efficiency in a production line is improved. A work assistance apparatus includes a profile information evaluation unit that evaluates degree of change in profile information based on worker information and production facility information, a correction estimation unit that estimates a correction method of profile information and a correction effect caused by the correction method based on evaluation in the profile information evaluation unit, and an instruction determination unit that determines a correction instruction for at least one of a worker and a production facility to perform correction based on a corresponding correction method based on a correction effect.
