What could be seen as our responsibility? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

onus

'responsibility?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for onus that I've seen before include "Liability" , "Weight of responsibility" , "Encumbrance" , "'Responsibility, task or burden (4)'" , "Responsibilty" .)
