Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

I'm in a situation where I went from being a SALARIED employee of an agency meeting a quota of 40 hours per week to being OFFERED a contractual job with the same agency. I now receive less than 10 hours PER WEEK making a higher wage per hour. I signed an agreement to take this job for under the impression that I would make the equivalent amount of hours I originally made and I don't. So, is there a law about this matter?
