Is it illegal for enterprises to attribute employees' patents to their own patents when dealing with employees' personal patents?

If the patent is invented by employees in their spare time, instead of using the material and technical conditions of their own units or any specific knowledge of the implementing units, the patent should belong to individuals, and it is illegal for enterprises to register in their own units. Enterprise employees can be corrected economically, otherwise they have the right to bring a lawsuit to the people's court.

You can also request the department in charge of patent work to handle it.
