Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

I'm a salaried employee in a company in Boca Raton, Fl. The normal work hours the past 10 years have been 9am to 5:30, and now are required to work mandatory 10 hour days M-F and weekends. We are told to work weekends on Fridays after 4 pm. They only implemented this to 1 group (6 people), and is not company wide policy. HR comes by after 6pm to see who is /isn't present, which is borderline harassment, not to mention the threat of us losing our jobs if we don't comply.
Is this acceptable by law?
After all, we have family to care for and family plans can't be made. I'm also told you can not have a part-time job on the weekend. We are told we need to make-up for any amount of missed time (Dr's appt) etc, as a salaried employee.

The answer is solely dictated by any contract you have with the employer. If no contract (or union), it is legal.
