Not on a slippery surface in one's workplace? (6)
I believe the answer is:
office
'one's workplace?' is the definition.
'office' can be an answer for 'workplace?' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'one's' bit.
'not on a slippery surface' is the wordplay.
'not on' becomes 'off' ('off' is the opposite to 'on').
'a slippery surface' becomes 'ice' (I've seen this in another clue).
'off'+'ice'='OFFICE'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for office that I've seen before include "Box ---, ticket agency" , "Place to perform clerical tasks" , "Where a white-collar worker works" , "Official position" , "Position in government?" .)
