Thousands of public and private sector employees could miss out on their September salaries after their Personal Identification Numbers (PINs) were de-activated by the taxman.

The de-listed individuals mainly comprise those who have pending Value Added Tax (VAT) obligations that could have arisen either from payments for private consultancies outside their workplace or directorships in personal companies that are not tax compliant.
