Benefit to university worker getting it (6)
I believe the answer is:
profit
'benefit' is the definition.
('profit' can be a synonym of 'benefit')
'university worker getting it' is the wordplay.
'university worker' becomes 'prof'.
'getting' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'prof'+'it'='PROFIT'
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for profit that I've seen before include "Net gain after expenses" , "It's gained on a transaction" , "Gain, return on investment" , "Financial gain" , "Money made" .)
