English term

swing space

English to German Bus/Financial Human Resources Removals
Included in a plan for relocating company employees within the same building or to a new building.
Context:

- Ability to complete office upgrades before the merger
- No transition-related moves before day 1 without works council approval
- Use of current facilities only? (Current facilities do not have adequate "vacant space" (swing space) to facilitate moves.)

Any ideas anyone?

Selected

"Freiraum", "Spielraum", "freie Kapazitäten"

I'd prefer the third one, in case it is really about physical movement from one facility (buildings or office space, isn't it?)to another.

Bewegungsfreiraum

Gegenwärtige Einrichtungen haben ungenügend Bewegungsfreiraum um einen Umzug zu gewährleisten!

Some more to think on...

"freie Räume" or "freie Räumlichkeiten".

Possible when you talk about concrete offices as such, as specified rooms.
