Catalan term or phrase: compte que existeix a treball
I understand all the words, just not the meaning. This is from the smae list as my last two questions, so there is no further context.

Section: Empresa, Industria i Energia, subsection: Carnets de treball. Contents of section: OGE-Carnets professionals (compte que existeix a treball), Grup Bústia, DGAC.

The OGC is the Oficina de Gestió Empresarial, and the DGAC is the DIRECCIÓ GENERAL D'ACCIÓ CÍVICA.

TIA!! :)

Explanation:
I'm not sure really. I'd need more information to understand it properly. However, when they say 'treball' here, they appear to be referring to the 'Oficina de Treball' (or 'Work Office' as they call it on the gencat website). And they are talking about 'professional cards' (translation from the gencat website).

I'm not sure how closely you are following existing, 'official' gencat translations though.

Terrible translation here re. 'professional cards'...



PROFESSIONAL CARDS
For obtaining the professional installer it’s necessary:
Show to the OGE (Oficina de Gestió Empresarial) the exam application and credit the necessary training. You can also do it on the OGE website.
Wait to receive the letter of the exam announcement or obtain this information on the OGE website.
Once the exam is done, wait to receive the letter with your mark or confirm it on the website.
If you have the application on Internet, you can ask for receiving information about the announcement notes by e-mail or SMS.
The interested person must go to pick up the OGE card, once his pertinence has been justified to an installer company (it’s an indispensable requirement, except for tower crane and mines operators). To do it he will fill out the card application. Any person can pick up the card, always with the application signed by the holder.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks, that makes a lot more sense than before. I think I will do them a favour and not use the terrible translations on GenCat - "employment office" and "professional licences" sound more better to me. ;) I may have been retranslating some of that stuff earlier.

Explanation:
another option - using "compte" the verb instead of the noun. the context is not clear and i'm a bit confused, but this is another possible option.
