One of the guidelines deals with how servants must be treated in accordance with the laws of the country they are in. Another is not to use corporal punishment on their children. They are also advised not to kiss them on the lips in public places or talk to children they do not know, which could lead to accusation of child molesting. Other advice is to avoid physical gestures to the opposite sex, which could be misinterpreted.
The guidelines follow a series of high profile incidents involving Saudis in a number of countries.
