Da Italiano a Inglese
Scienze sociali
Risorse umane
*La stella al merito del Lavoro* è una delle decorazioni più antiche che si ottiene sul campo (25 anni ininterrotti di attività) ed è finalizzata ad un unico ideale costituito dalla laboriosità e dalla dedizione
al lavoro.
ideas on how to translate this please. I thought of *long service medal* but I can only find it in a military context and this is NOT a military context.

Comment: "I'm going for long service award because it was similar to what I was thinking and kind of covers all bases. Thanks for the help and the link."

the Star of Merit for industry and agriculture
This is an official decoration conferred by the head of state. I'm not aware of a standard English translation for it, hence the above offering. I find the 'lavoro' bit slightly problematic, as none of 'labour', 'work' or 'employment' sound quite right to me, and the more snappy 'industry' on its own would exclude the field of agriculture.
