Créations de service

English translation: creations/inventions in the course of employment

23:26 May 22, 2020
French to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Employment contract
French term or phrase: Créations de service
This is clause from an employment contract concerning "Inventions"

Le Salarié s’engage, conformément aux dispositions du décret n° XYZ à déclarer immédiatement à la Société par lettre recommandée avec accusé de réception, toutes les Créations dont il sera l’auteur ou le coauteur, qu’il s’agisse de Créations de service ou de Créations indépendantes de ses missions professionnelles.

From the context, I'm assuming this has to do with creations/designs while on the job? Any suggestions?

Creations/Inventions as an employee


Explanation:
It's a clause previewed in his employment contract and that he must respect once the contract signed. So, it's a clause that he must respect during his contract, as an employee of the respective company.
