14.5 million employees of the private and the public will receive at the end of January their pay docked tax at the source.

In a few hours, after the retired and the self-employed, 14,5 25 million employees in the private and the public, those who are subject to income tax, will receive their salary reduced by the withholding at the source. The other $ 10.5 million are not affected.
