This word is very misused. Be carful. Players do not "comprise" a football team, and employees do not "comprise" a company. Nor can a football team be said to be "comprised of" players, or a company to be "comprised of" employees. These are very common mistakes. Instead, you can say that players constitute or compose a team, and that employees constitute or compose a company. You caon also say that team consist of players or a company consists of employees.
