class war

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'describes salad ingredients brought up' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'lesson resulting in conflict between workers and others' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'lesson' could be 'class' (synonyms) and 'class' is present in the answer.
'conflict' could be 'war' (war is a kind of conflict) and 'war' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'after' acts as a link.
