Hi Nishant,
For details about CiteHR policies you would need to contact the site Administrator/Owner in addition to checking information here on the website. Any comments I make are my own views and may not necessarily match those of the Owner of Cite.
As you will see from my postings, I am a Moderator here at CiteHR. However, whilst my fellow moderators and I try to keep an eye on things, it is not always possible to pick up all violations of copyright infringements etc.
I share your concerns about safeguarding material, but I am sure you will realise that the internet has become a bit of a free for all! Sadly many people do not understand exactly what copyright is or means. For example, I think quite a few of our members here think that because something is labelled as an e-book, then that means it can be distributed freely. It can't. Yes, there are a few FREE e-books around, but the majority are clearly labelled as copyright.
In the case of material specifically prepared for your clients, you need to safeguard that as best you can. However, if you prepare and are paid for material by a company, then it could be reasonably expected that the company then owns the copyright, and are free to do what they will with it. If you wanted to retain the copyright to your materials, then you would need to clearly spell that out in your contract with the client. You also need to be prepared to take legal action if your copyright is violated.
The other problem is that many companies have very lax rules in place about safeguarding company documents etc. I think that some members here, do not stop to think that material they are posting here - in the guise of being helpful - may be copyright. For example, documents outlining their employer's company policies and procedures etc.
Also people go to training courses and bring back a training manual etc - for their OWN use at their workplace. They are not free to copy that manual and post it on a site like this. In any case, it could be argued that, if their employer has paid for them to attend the course, then the manual and any other training material rightly belongs to the company.
If you have been with CiteHR for awhile, you may have noticed that I do what I can to remove copyright materials, and try to educate and encourage our members to do the right thing, while maintaining the great help and assistance this site provides to the HR community.
I hope that helps answer some of your questions.
Kind regards
