<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">paid worker</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for employee that I've seen before include "in work" , "Person in office" , "Job-holder" , "One working for others" , "Salaried worker" .)
