Picking up and dropping off a female co worker when going to and work

It's illegal, except taxi driver No one allowed to pick or drop any single man/women either they have evidence to prove they are close relative or both are working under same sponsorship....

But I know many person who are doing so...

Unless the one picking you up (from and to) to your work is your company driver...and not just a designated driver but the driver by profession as stated in his iqama and under same company sponsor, then its ok...but if not, it's not allowed...

I suggest you ask also your admin officer or HR manager for they know much better on these issues....

It is illegal by the law, but so is satellite television.

However, from my experience the implementation is pretty weak as I have picked and dropped a co worker of mine numerous times, without a problem. We have been checked by the police (on police check points), but there has never been a problem.

The implementation is pretty weak.

Hello Chammy,

When you have mentioned 'co-worker' , that automatically implies 'same sponsor', therefore you are operating well with in the allowed boundaries. ( I did not use the terminology of 'legal'), and there is nothing to worry about.

Situation will change if one is caught holding hands in a car parked on a deserted spot in the dark hours of the evening in that corner of corniche, proving that you are co-workers will not help either.
