日本鐵路系統(tǒng)要求員工每天早晨接受“微笑掃描”，希望以此提高員工的服務質(zhì)量。負責執(zhí)行此項任務的并不是鐵路系統(tǒng)的老板，而是由歐姆龍公司研發(fā)的“微笑掃描儀”軟件。員工的微笑表情被掃描后，該軟件會用0到100之間的分值對其進行評價，如果得分低于平均水平，系統(tǒng)會提示員工改進。京濱急行快鐵的員工每天上班時都帶著一張自己當天的標準笑臉圖，工作時的微笑表情都要以此為準。據(jù)悉，日本越來越多的服務行業(yè)都開始使用這一軟件對員工進行培訓。

Japanese railway workers face enforced "smile scans" every morning in a bid to boost their customer services, it has been claimed. More than 500 staff at Keihin Electric Express Railway are expected to be subjected to daily face scans by "smile police" bosses.

The "smile scan" software, developed by the Japanese company Omron, produces a sweeping analysis of a smile based on facial characteristics, from lip curves and eye movements to wrinkles.

After scanning a face, the device produces a rating between zero to 100 depending on the estimated value of the fulfilled potential of a person's biggest smile.

For those with a below-par grin, one of an array of smile-boosting messages will op up on the computer screen ranging from "you still look too serious" to "lift up your mouth corners", according to the Mainichi Daily News.

A growing number of service industries are reportedly using the new Omron Smile Scan system for "smile training" among its staff.

Workers at Keihin Electric Express Railway will receive a print out of their daily smile which they will be expected to keep with then throughout the day to inspire them to smile at all times, the report added.
