I’ve been working as a temp for 5 years at the same company what are my rights to PTO?

My company is a temp agency, however I have been working 40-hour full time weeks since the start of my employment at the company I’ve been contracted out to. I have only taken 2 weeks vacation time total in those 5 years. Am I entitled to additional vacation time as a full-time worker? I wasn’t granted a single day of vacation for the first 3 years of employment, and have only had 1 week of vacation each year for the last 3. I am getting the feeling that my employer is taking advantage of me in this regard.
