Two misunderstandings about software copyright;
The first misunderstanding is that enterprises believe that any work done by employees out of work needs during their work belongs to enterprises.
For example, according to the arrangement and needs of the company, various documents made by employees, business articles and monographs published by employees (newspapers, publishing houses, colleges and universities are more common) and so on. The company believes that they belong to job works, and the copyright should belong to the company. The company can use them at will, but the employees themselves have no right to use them.
Once the editor of a publishing house took his former publishing house to court after leaving his post. The main appeal is to confirm that the copyright of the books he wrote during his work in the publishing house belongs to him.
The key point in the trial of this case is whether there is a contractual agreement between the editor and the publishing house on the work of the post. If there is a contract, the judgment shall be made according to the contract. If there is no contract agreement, it shall be judged according to law, that is, the copyright of the job work belongs to the author.
The second misunderstanding is that the employees of the company think that the computer software they have completed is entirely made by their own intelligence and can be used by the company, although it is completed during working hours in order to complete the company's tasks. However, the copyright of the software should be owned by themselves and has nothing to do with the company.
This misunderstanding has also led to many cases, the most typical of which is that after employees leave their jobs, they bring the software they completed in the previous company to the next company, and the next company uses these computer software in its own products.
Once discovered by the last company, not only disputes may arise between the last company and its employees, but also disputes over copyright infringement or unfair competition may arise between superior and subordinate companies, which may lead to lawsuits.
