Claim for damages about an incident which occurred within a company's "Betribessphaäre". Can I translate with "premises" or is there a more encompassing term.

sphere of control

I have used the translation "sphere of control" once when translating some AGBs, and it definitely suited my context.

I also found this on the web, which may suit yours: "In a ruling that adopts the "sphere of control" test in premises liability cases, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the dismissal of a suit brought by a man who was rendered quadriplegic when he was knocked over by a powerful wave while bodysurfing in the Virgin Islands. The court held that property owners have a duty to warn about unsafe conditions beyond their premises only if the owner had a legal right to control the area or evidence of an intent to control it."

sphere of business / activities / business activity / operations / influence


I think I would keep sphere in the EN translation. According to this search:

the clear favourite is influence
However, there is a strong case for
business / activities / business activity / operations
Peer comment(s):

agree Ramey Rieger (X) : I'd go with influence
