Self-conscious about worker getting rough accommodation (6)
I believe the answer is:
shanty
'rough accommodation' is the definition.
(type of basic building)
'self-conscious about worker' is the wordplay.
'self-conscious' becomes 'shy' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'shy' enclosing 'ant' is 'SHANTY'.
'getting' is the link.
(Other definitions for shanty that I've seen before include "Sailors' song - shack" , "Small crude shelter and sailor's song" , "low abode" , "Sailors' song - poor dwelling" , "Slum ghetto" .)
