Temperature.

3.(1) Effective provision shall be made for securing and maintaining a
reasonable temperature in each workroom, but no method shall be employed which
results in the escape into the air of any workroom of any fume of such a
character and to such extent as to be likely to be injurious or offensive to
persons employed therein.

(2) In every workroom in which a substantial proportion of the work is done
sitting and does not involve serious physical effort, a temperature of less
than sixty degrees shall not be deemed, after the first hour, to be a
reasonable temperature while work is going on, and at least one thermometer
shall be provided and maintained in a suitable position in every such
workroom.
