In a viral video, Khyathi, a woman from Hyderabad, expressed her frustration with the concept of compensatory offs (comp offs) in corporate workplaces. She questioned why employees are often required to work during weekends and holidays, only to receive a day off on a weekday when their friends and family are unavailable. Khyathi stated, 'I absolutely hate the concept of comp offs,' arguing that these arrangements do not truly address the need for work-life balance. She believes that companies often justify this practice by claiming employees work only five days a week, but the reality is that employees lack control over which days they work. Her video has garnered significant attention, with many viewers agreeing that weekends cannot be replaced by random weekdays, and that comp offs do not restore lost social opportunities. This discussion underscores the ongoing challenges faced by employees in achieving a healthy work-life balance.
