Seclusion with a Non-Jew
Question
Sometimes I stay after work for computer tasks and the like, in a manner that only I and another non-Jewish cleaner remain in the entire institution (sometimes for an hour or more). My question is whether this is permitted and if there are leniencies such as cameras and others.
Answer
Seclusion with a non-Jew is prohibited due to the concern of danger, and in any case, if there is a reason for him to fear killing, that is sufficient to permit it.
