Bookmakers must have stories about worker (11)
I believe the answer is:
accountants
'bookmakers' is the definition.
(accountants do bookkeeping)
'stories about worker' is the wordplay.
'stories' becomes 'accounts' ('account' can be a synonym of 'story').
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'accounts' enclosing 'ant' is 'ACCOUNTANTS'.
'must have' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
