State of XXX Labor (Labour UK ) Department


Explanation:
I would put in the State name. I'm pretty sure you have it.

This will make it clear to an English speaking reader that you are talking at State level and not Federal.

Also, please include in the future if you are talking about PT or PBr and UK/US. This will help those who wish to help you. Thanks.
