Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / Tender/award of contract: Request for information/Leistungsanfrage regarding construction services in Switzerland: preliminary activities: description of interior construction work required
English term or phrase: Staff amenities
Hi,

Specific office space for mixed staff (compare coworking space) is to be built in Switzerland.

The principal describes it as follows to any future successful bidder:

DE:
Outline project specification:
Fit out of 1,457m² office space comprised of the following key components:
88 work stations
Reception
Large/medium/small meeting rooms
Focus booths and phone booths
Touch down area
Storage facilities
***Staff amenities***
Kitchen hub

Is this "Sozialräume für die Belegschaft"? Or is it the case, rather, that this does not refer to rooms in the first place at all so that I have to take the literal meaning "Annehmlichkeiten für die Belegschaft" as the starting point of my thinking, possibly arriving at either just that as a vague fits-all type of descriptor or otherwise at some term that describes items and equipment (espresso vending machine?) rather than rooms?

Cheers,
Sebastian Witte
