No person shall be excused from attending and testifying or from producing books, papers, correspondence, memoranda or other records before the commission or any member thereof, or the secretary or his duly authorized representative, on the ground that the evidence required of him may tend to incriminate or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture. No person shall be prosecuted or subjected to any suit, penalty, or forfeiture on account of any transaction, matter, or thing concerning which he or his agent or worker is compelled, after having claimed privilege against self-incrimination, to give evidence, except that such witness so testifying shall not be exempt from punishment for perjury.
