Rejected petition Give NHS workers free parking at hospitals
Rejected on
These frontline workers should not be paying to park at their place of work.
If a nurse has a 12 hour shift, she or he may have to work the first two or three hours of their shift just to cover parking.
As a result of Covid-19 our NHS has been a champion of the British public and while they don't seem to be getting a pay rise anytime soon the least we can do is make their workplace more accessible.
The companies that own the car parks can very easily give employees a free parking pass.
The workers should not be part of a profit margin.
