Petition Allow free parking for all NHS employees on NHS property or their place of work.

Ensure that all NHS trusts are obligated to negotiate future and renegotiate current contracts to ensure free parking for NHS employees at all NHS or contracted out car parks in the UK, and to prevent NHS employees being charged to park their cars at their place of work.

More details

Coronavirus has emphasised beyond any doubt, the dedication that NHS employees have always shown in responding to health crises in a working environment where they have also been reluctant to take, or relinquished the right to take industrial action to express grievances, leaving them vulnerable to the type of exploitation of having to pay to be able to attend their place of work.
