Full-time at 32 hours versus PT with FT benefits

Hired an employee under the understanding they were full-time at 32 hours, but when they got denied a paid holiday off, we learned they're technically part-time with full-time benefits. On the authorization to hire I checked off Full-Time, we both signed it, and that's the paperwork I gave HR. They've been an employee for 9 months without any indication otherwise. Was this just an oversight? Edited to add: How many hours on average does the Affordable Care Act ACA define as part-time? Any employee who works an average of at least 30 hours per week for more than 120 days in a year. Part-time employees work an average of less than 30 hours per week.
