How it is earned
When someone with this rule set works on an off day, X adds comp off to their balance: a full day, or half a day if they worked only half a day's minutes.
How staff use it
Comp off is always available as a leave type, next to the leave in their policy. Staff apply for it from My leave like any other leave. See Apply for leave. The request goes to Approvals like any other leave request.
The day then shows as Comp off (CO) and is paid.
