To reduce annoyance caused to a driver by preventing issuing of unnecessary warnings when there is bad weather that causes the visibility of the surroundings for the driver is poor. An inattention warning device (1) for giving a warning for inattention to a driver (D) of a vehicle (100), comprises an inattention detecting unit (10), a weather detection unit (40), a warning issuing time calculating unit (20) and a warning unit (30). The inattention detecting unit (10) detects inattention of the driver (D) of the vehicle (100). The weather detection unit (40) detects weather outside the vehicle (100). The warning issuing time calculation unit (20) calculates a warning issuing time (tl) by calculation in accordance with a predetermined condition when an inattention of the driver has been detected. This calculation in accordance with the predetermined condition includes the calculation that delays the warning issuing time tl when the weather detection unit (40) detects bad weather. The warning unit (30) issues the warning regarding the inattention if the inattention continues until the warning issuing time (tl) has expired, otherwise not issues any warning regarding the inattention if the inattention has not continued until the warning issuing time (tl).
