This is in no way to be construed as legal advice, but you will likely want
your attorney and HR director to specify the parameters of this in your
employee handbook, and put it into all of your consultant and vendor
contracts. Have your counsel look at this issue and, if necessary, run it
by an intellectual property law specialist.

Subject: Copyright Laws
I attended a seminar on copyright laws recently and was discussing what
I had learned with the President of our firm. He brought up an issue
that was not discussed at the seminar and I thought I'd ask the listserv
being so many experts are a part of this group. The question was: If we
hire a part-time consultant or a temporary worker and this person
creates something while working for us, who owns that creation? We had
assumed if this worker was a full-time employee that any creation was
property of our firm. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
