Religious man in favour of examination for worker (10)
I believe the answer is:
protestant
'religious man' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'in favour of examination for worker' is the wordplay.
'in favour of' becomes 'pro' (being pro a particular cause).
'examination' becomes 'test' (synonyms).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'pro'+'test'+'ant'='PROTESTANT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for protestant that I've seen before include "Member of church founded on the principles of the Reformation" , "Opposing" , "expressing dissent" , "Lutheran, perhaps" , "religious type" .)
