Can a company have different vacation policies based on date of hire?

Before you go on saying something like, "but you need a year on the job to get vacation time" I mean something more specific, like the fact that employees hired on or before May 1 get two weeks vacation while those hired after May 1 get only one week off

They are all full-time employees and they have all worked over a year. Is this unfair?

    Fair or not, yes, a company can have different vacation policies based on date of hire. It is quite common to have perks, and benefits, differ based on date of employment.
