(2) It shall be the duty of any person owning or controlling the heating plant which furnishes heat to any office, store, or other place of employment to maintain a temperature of not less than 68°F, without such undue restriction of ventilation as to interfere with proper sanitary conditions therein, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. from October 1 of each year to June 1 of the succeeding year, Sundays and legal holidays excepted.
