Stable employee (5)
'stable employee' is the definition.
'liveryman' can be an answer for 'employee' (liveryman is a kind of employee). I am not sure about the 'stable' bit.
'stable employee' is the wordplay.
'stable' becomes 'livery stable' (livery stable is a kind of stable).
'employee' becomes 'man'.
'livery'+'man'='LIVERYMAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
