ICAO says the following:

Now are you an operating crew member when you are not behind the wheel? No. So strictly it is not illegal. They know their stuff and again no union to object against this "creative" solution to increase efficiency.

So you didn't fly more than 900 hours. Sounds like you are looking for something to complain about. If you don't like it you can leave, right?
Try Ryanair, I'm sure you will have a better quality of life, far less hours and get paid just as well, after tax. Obviously.
