Mano de obra

Mano de obra
 
How can we say mono de obra?
The dic says workforce or labor but in a context like fixing a car a pipe etcc.. When they give you the bill, they charge for the piece plus the mano de obra,
Workforce maybe?
Thanks in advance.

Labour is correct. A garage repair bill will be in two parts: 1) Spare parts materials and 2) labour (.. hours at ..€ per hour)

Perikles is right, and the division is the same here in the US: (a) parts (or materials) and (b) labor.
(Choosing the spelling appropriate for your target audience, of course.)
