Recovery of money due from employer: workers may seek a government certificate enabling recovery as arrears of land revenue.

Section 59 prescribes that workers or authorised persons may apply to the appropriate Government for recovery of money due; the Government, if satisfied, issues a certificate to the Collector to recover the sum as an arrear of land revenue. Applications are subject to a one-year limitation with a discretionary extension for sufficient cause. Disputes over amounts or valuation may be decided by a Tribunal within three months (extendable), which may appoint a Commissioner; the Tribunal's determination is forwarded to the Government for recovery under the certificate mechanism. Representative applications for multiple workers are permitted.
