Executive office/Secretariat of Labor and Income Explanation: Just another suggestion. There is more than one way of translating it, although Department is probably the most used. Government of Massachusetts: http://www.mass.gov/portal/government-taxes/branches-agencie... Most of the Departments of Labor don't have "income" or "revenue" in the title, probably because it can be mixed up with state revenue. I did find "labor and income" together but they were already a translation (IBGE http://www.ibge.gov.br/english/estatistica/populacao/censo20... Having said that, I would still choose "income" over "revenue". IMO, revenue is even more related to tax issues. |
