German term or phrase: Einsatzwechseltätigkeit
German tax-related term. An employee carries out an E. if he/she does not have one single place of employment but several. I would like to know whether there is an English term - the equivalent, if possible! If not I will settle for a concise circumscription!
Thanks

Explanation:
Einsatzwechseltätigkeit
Wer als Arbeitnehmer häufig an wechselnden Tätigkeitsstätten arbeiten muss, übt eine Einsatzwechseltätigkeit aus. In solchen Fällen ist die
jeweilige Tätigkeitsstätte als regelmäßige Arbeitsstätte anzusehen. Typisch ist eine solche
Berufsausübung bei Bau- und Montagearbeitern,Leiharbeitnehmern sowie Mitgliedern einer Betriebsreserve für Filialbetriebe und Rechtsreferendare während der Ausbildung. Die Zahl der jährlichen Einsatzstellen ist dabei für die Einkommensteuer ohne Bedeutung.

In view of the above definition I would suggest *multiple location employment*.

Thanks Johanna. I had found the steuernetz reference but several hours into this translation I found my inspiration somewhat lacking. Will go with this but add the German in parentheses.

freelance employment


Explanation:
Means: will work on assignment basis at firms that need his/her skills. Another description is "a temporary employee". A bit more sophisticated title is "consultant" (usually mid-level management). At the lower end there is the "day laborer". All means basically the same. Go from company to company, wherever the money is.
