Official Embezzlement (in 政府機關) or Employee Embezzlement ( in 私人機構) Explanation: "Embezzlement" alone should work for "職務侵佔". But if more precise meanings have to be covered, then "official embezzlement" or "employee embezzlement" can differentiate the crimes occured in different settings. Examples: "China's National Audit Office (NAO) found 117 cases of official embezzlement in 2007." Source: Xinhua News Agency http://www.congoo.com/news/2008August27/Chinese-auditors-fin... "Employee embezzlement costs American employers about $6 billion per year." http://www.fredlaw.com/articles/whitecollar/whit_0607_dll.ht... Another translation choice for this term is "Embezzlement Crime by Taking Advantage of Duty", but kind of too long. Example: 论职务侵占罪的犯罪主体范围 On Subject of Embezzlement Crime by Taking Advantage of Duty 《公安學報》http://scholar.ilib.cn/A-zjgagdzkxxxb200601017.html No need to include "crime" for this term since "embezzlement" itself is a crime. It doesn't hurt to add, though. Just for your reference. |
