  Comments: 
i think this is a mistranslation in gg5, based on ambiguity in 現業.  normally it means 'on-site work', but here it refers to 三公社五現業.  koj defines 現業庁 as: 現業をつかさどる行政機関。郵便局・印刷局・造幣局等が民営化・独立行政法人化されて現在では林野庁のみが残る。 daijs extends it to things like the Meteorological Agency...  it's hard to see how that translates to 'government agency in charge of work-site operations', which makes it sound like it's a labour safety board or something.
