Hi,
This is my first post. Its amazing how much support the new hires get from supportive people already in the kingdom. We have found lots of info but I had 2 things which I was confused about. I will be living in Abqaiq and Workingin Dhahran and will be reaching there in Sept first week.
1) Since I will be travelling everyday from Abqaiq to Dhahran and back, I would effective have 8 hour days + 2-3 hours for daily commute. How do employees get compensated for spending these 2-3 hours everyday communiting compared to their colleagues who got into the local communities?
2) As we are expecting, what are the facilities at abqaiq clinic/hospital for pregnant women? Do they have fully equipped maternity ward with scanners and delivery facilities or do we need to make a trip to main hospital for routine checkups?
Thanks
