business - Who owns authorship when an employee makes a design for their employer?


Let's say Designer X worked full time for Company Y. While there, Designer X built an illustration to explain how Company Y's product works. Then, some years later after Designer X left Company Y, a third party requests permission to use said illustration in some educational material it plans to publish, and wishes to cite the author.



Who does the third party cite, Designer X or Company Y?
