Crossword Genius

Standing, position (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

status

This clue is a double definition.

'standing' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'position' is the second definition.
(I know that position can be written as status)

(Other definitions for status that I've seen before include "Importance (in society?)" , "Position in organisation or in society" , "Social position or grade" , "Relative social standing" , "Rank or position in society" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Guardian.
