Worker shown the way to be managed (7)
I believe the answer is:
handled
'be managed' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'worker shown the way' is the wordplay.
'worker' becomes 'hand' (hand is a kind of worker).
'shown the way' becomes 'led' (I've seen this in another clue).
'hand'+'led'='HANDLED'
'to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for handled that I've seen before include "Touched - held" , "Dealt with" , "Coped with" , "managed" .)
