Answer 1

Jamel hires independent contractor Stevenson to create users' manuals for Jamel's small appliances. Jamel can create an agreement in writing that designates Stevenson's work as work for hire.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

This would allow Jamel to own the copy rights of Stevenson's work. The work has been created by Stevenson ans so is copyrighted. But an agreement can allow Jamel to own the copyrights as this work was done by Stevenson under Jamel's employment.

This means that Jamel can further prevent the use of this written material and can use the material for his own small appliances. Any other person or party using this copyrighted material other than Jamel would be liable for legal actions for using copyright material and information.
