What state has that law? Or is it national?
Outside of an actual climate controlled storage unit (IE a giant fridge/freezer) every warehouse or shop I’ve ever been in for any reason had zero climate control and not even any insulation. Concrete base, with thin courrugated steel walls/roofs mostly. Shits like an oven, since it ends up being even hotter in the building than it is outside.

I’m in NY and that’s the language I was able to find in the states laws regarding factory conditions, but it’s not really regulated since their only stated “metric” is a completely vague, subjective amount: “reasonable.”
Nowhere in the language do they define reasonable, and when I reached out to my “representative” asking for clarification they never responded, naturally lol

If you can reach out to a local expert, there’s probably an assumed standard for “reasonable” that the state goes by. Vague laws like that frequently just mean that you use the standard set by an administrative admin or the courts.
