Workers caught in completely outrageous plot (9)
I believe the answer is:
allotment
'plot' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'workers caught in completely outrageous' is the wordplay.
'workers' becomes 'men' (men can mean staff or employees).
'caught in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'completely' becomes 'all' (synonyms).
'outrageous' becomes 'OTT' (short for over the top).
'all'+'ott'='allott'
'men' placed within 'allott' is 'ALLOTMENT'.
(Other definitions for allotment that I've seen before include "Rented garden plot" , "Allowance" , "Small rented gardening plot" , "cultivated area" , "Piece of land let out for cultivation" .)
