Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in New York

New York- I work as a Salary employee in a large production plant. On average, I work 45-55 hours per week. There are some instances where the company (due to low production goals) will cut portions of the week out. During this time, I am forced to use my personal vacation time. I understand that Full-Time (due to company handbook) means 30+ hours per week on average. Since I average so much higher, is it legal for them to force me to use that vacation time?
