Hard-working and conscientious (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

diligent

'hard-working and conscientious' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for diligent that I've seen before include "Painstaking - I tingled (anag)" , "I tingled, being hard-working and conscientious" , "Putting care and effort into work" , "Attentive and busy" , "Taking trouble" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
