i am in the process of building a deck in upstate new york. the contractor dug 4 foot holes for the footings and filled them 1 foot deep with cement then placed the supports in the holes and filled them in with dirt. is this okay?

It is for a deck under 30" in height. The posts need to be ground treat rather than the typical pressure treated lumber.
