I work for a company who has a rotating Sunday shift from 12pm-7pm. At the end of the week this totals out to 38hours. If I was hired in fulltime, doesnt the company have to schedule me at least 40hours/week? Anyone who gets the Sunday shift automatically loses some hours for the week. The company says we can make up the lost time on our own. Basically i want to know if it is manditory for a company to schedule you 40hrs if they hire you fulltime.

No, they do not have to schedule you 40 hours a week. "Full Time" status is determined by each company that you work for. The only thing the 40 hours/week has to do with anything is that when you work more than 40 hours a week the labor laws MAY require your employer to pay you overtime. There are even situations where the employers doesn't have to do that.

You need to ask your hr person what the company sees as full time. My company considers full time 32 hr of work or more. If you want to work your 40 hours take a 30 min lunch instead of a hour, come in early, leave late, ask for more hours

In some companies, full time is defined as anything over 30 hours or more per week. It depends on what your company defines full time to be. I would say as long as it's not interfering with any company benefits, and they say you can make up the time on your own, then they are within their rights.

First, "Right to work" means ONLY that you cannot be forced to join a union to work. It has nothing whatsoever to do with your issue.
Secondly, how many hours you work is not a matter of law except for payment for hours actually worked.
The law does not stipulate how many hours a company is REQUIRED to let you work.

ok people, shall we do the mathematics: guy working in u.s. for $5 according to hour = guy being adverse. government placing minimum salary to $10 according to hour = guy being unemployed as a results of fact interest went distant places. could you quite make $5 an hour or $0? heavily people, it isn't any longer complicated stuff.

If they consider 38 hours as full time then you are full time. I would ask them.

Florida is a "Right to Work" state.
There are VERY few regulations forcing employers to pay certain amounts, or work you certain hours, or give any benefits, or anything.
Sorry!
