Format problem while converting text file to csv

Hi ,

I need a help in following scenario.I tried searching in google but couldn't able to find the exact answer. Sorry if i am re-posting already answered query.
While i am trying to convert into log file into csv i couldn't able to get the format which i am looking for.

I converted file with the following command

Code:
awk -F":" '{ print $1","$2","$3}' < test.txt > test.csv

Code:
Employee Total: 345
 Employee Leave:   2
 Employee Present in Office:  333
 Employee Working Out of Office: 10

Since awk is not ignoring spaces and considering white space & colon as delimiter data is divided into different columns i.e. more than 3 columns.
Is there a way to get above details into two columns in csv file.

Thanks in advance.
