I work at a retail store in Sunrise, Fl. Over the last few weeks I have been working 32+ hours a week (32 hours in considered full time for the company i work for). Unfortunately, I am still a part time employee and gaining none of the benefits a full time employee gets (paid vacation, holiday pay, etc...).My employer said they do not want to promote anyone to full time right now because they want to save money.
Is there anything in place, by law that requires an employer to make a part time employee full time after working X amount of weeks with full time hours? What can I do in this situation?
