All staff who live outside a sensible radius..ie not walkable should be permitted to have a permit to park especially shift workers. Cycling, walking and lift sharing should be encouraged where possible, however preventing staff from parking or charging them high prices is unacceptable where out of hours work is expected.

parking should be available to all hospital staff for without staff you have no hospital.

I worked at ARI for under a year, applied for a permit and never got one. I traveled from Turriff for work 3/4 times a week. It was a nightmare trying to get parked! I was lucky to be able to car share with someone who has a permit. I think it's ridiculous that Staff do not get permits!

Let Staff park at work they deserve to get home quicker. Public transport is awful and can't be relied on.

Your staff are your most valuable asset - don't make their job any more difficult than it already is!

Staff deserve to get more consideration for parking.

It is absolutely ridiculous that a huge hospital the likes of ARI does not have adequate parking for Staff and patient s a multi storey car park should have been built years ago. I myself wouldn't even mind paying to park would be cheaper then public transport. People should be intitaled to choice if they want to drive or use public transport. This choice is been taken away from 1700 of us everyone circumstances are different. I personally need to get home to let husband go to work and get children to school. I only live in Kincorth but I would still need to get two buses. They are asking a lot from staff work long tiring 12 hour shifts alot of the time short staffed. They need to come up with an alternative. Eg an overflow car park near by with a shuttle bus service!

Staff parking is far more important than visitor or patient parking.

I think this is rediculous for people that work long shifts and have commitments before and after work

My fiancee works for the NHS and despite living 30 minutes away, is not all allowed to park there. Ridiculous.

Problems with staff shortages are only going to increase as staff will look for employment elsewhere.

Staff work long hours in the nhs, often under stressful conditions. Getting to and from work should not be an additional source of stress.

My wife works at ARI and has to take our daughters to the NHS run nursery. Is she meant to get the bus with our two daughters (aged 4 and 18 months)?

All hospital staff particularly nurses deserve to have a parking permit, work long hours for little pay and alot of time no thanks.
