      persons  employed  in  operating freight or passenger elevators adequate
      and convenient washrooms or washing facilities and a  sufficient  number
      of  suitable  and convenient waterclosets. Where the elevator is used in
      or in  connection  with  a  factory  or  mercantile  establishment,  the
      provisions  of sections two hundred and ninety-three and two hundred and
      ninety-five  shall  apply  to   wash-rooms,   washing   facilities   and
      waterclosets  for  employees  mentioned  in  this section; and where the
      elevator is used in any other building or place, the provisions of  such
      sections   three   hundred  and  seventy-eight  and  three  hundred  and
      eighty-one shall apply to washrooms, washing facilities and waterclosets
      for employees engaged in the care, custody or operation of  an  elevator
      in  such  building or place. For the purpose of so applying the sections
      last referred to, the term "mercantile establishment"  as  therein  used
      shall  be deemed to mean and include a building in which the elevator is
      located or with which it connects.
