Is it permissible for a woman to work with a foreign driver in the absence of a mahram, and is a non-Muslim driver entitled to claim wages for individual working days if the agreement was monthly, given that he deliberately did not complete her transportation and abandoned her?

If a woman is compelled to ride in a car alone with a driver, it is permissible for her to do so out of necessity, provided it is estimated according to its proper measure. As for the driver's refusal to complete the contract, scholars have differed on whether he is entitled to the fare or not. Prudence dictates giving the driver his share of the fare to clear one's conscience and to resolve the scholarly dispute.
