The temperature in the place of work should be a minimum of 16 degrees Celsius and should provide reasonable comfort without any changes needed to be made to clothing. The maximum should be 30 degrees Celsius . Since you are in retail which is perceived as a "strenuous" job, the temperature should be at the bottom end of the range.
In uncomfortable high temperatures you are entitled to a hot weather fan.
Seems like the heat is getting to you and it is unlikely the the air conditioner will be serviced. You could get your way by "dropping in" your conversation with your boss/senior that have they heard of the new legislation implemented on temperatures at the workplace and the consequences for those that don't comply with them. Hopefully you will be more chilled out lolzz

God you are soooo lucky. I've worked in catering for about 20years now and there is a law about it being too cold but not too hot. In the last 3years had no air conditioning, no opening windows in a tall glass building and temp reaching 73f in the winter!

In retail there is no minimum or maximum allowed temparatures, offices do have legal limits but retail and wholesale establishments do not.
