Authorship Rights to an institution

Many authors have strict regulations in their employment contracts regarding their works. A transfer of copyright to the institution or company and the reservation of specific use rights is typical in such cases. Just so you know, in the case of open-access publications combined with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 license, it is possible to transfer the copyright to an institution, as it is the author's property and is not subject to the publisher. 

For cases where the author wishes to transfer copyright to his institution or company, this rights transfer can be expressed in a particular "copyright statement" on the manuscript's title page.
