Maybe Puck needs year off? That's OK (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fair

'ok' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for fair that I've seen before include "Equitable; expo" , "[OPPOSITE OF] Dark" , "'Just, reasonable (4)'" , "Attractive type of weather?" , "Pretty good" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
