Ringing about issue with worker (8)
I believe the answer is:
resonant
'ringing' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'about issue with worker' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (regarding**).
'issue' becomes 'son' (issue can mean someone's offspring).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
're'+'son'+'ant'='RESONANT'
(Other definitions for resonant that I've seen before include "Evoking memories" , "Booming" , "Reverberating" , "producing vibrant sound" , "Deep, clear and continuing to sound or reverberate" .)
