earnings = Einkommen, income = netto Einkommen
Explanation: I studied German tax law - in there we differentiated between "Einkommen", which is everything one earns, hence "earnings" in English and "Einkünfte", which is what describes the actual income after deducting of non-taxable amounts. I would imagine the same applies here, so in your text above "ab einem sozialversicherungspflichtigen Einkommen* von 20000 Euro im Jahr die bessere Entscheidung..." ths is income and in the part of the text "Einkommen fließen Ihnen aus Ihrem Beschäftigungsver- hältnis zu." it is earnings.
