Worker, dismissed, gets some charity (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

handout

'some charity' is the definition.
(handout is a kind of charity)

'worker dismissed' is the wordplay.
'worker' becomes 'hand' (hand is a kind of worker**).
'dismissed' becomes 'out' (I've seen this before).
'hand'+'out'='HANDOUT'

'gets' is the link.

(Other definitions for handout that I've seen before include "Donation" , "Publicity" , "charity" , "dole?" , "financial support" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
