Put on payroll (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

employ

(Other definitions for employ that I've seen before include "Give job to (someone)" , "Put on the payroll" , "Engage or hire for work" , "Make use of" , "Put to use" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Sun.
