Direção-Geral do Emprego e das Relações de Trabalho

The Directorate-General for Employment and Labour Relations. A body of the labour ministry: it receives notifications of collective redundancies, keeps statistics on them, and deals with collective agreements and mediation in labour disputes.

Where you come across it. News about the labour market, redundancy statistics, collective agreements.
Do not confuse it with ACT: ACT inspects working conditions on the ground, while DGERT works with documents and statistics.
