At UEL peak hours parking is like GOLD DUST. Its becoming more and more difficult to get a permit. As a working mother I need this facilitiy to start my second job after 5pm (the domestic job). This Gold dust is not being managed properly. (or if it is, what is the system for unused parking spots?) UEL policy allows women on maternity leave to receive full annual leave entitlements, gain salary increments and be in touch about major area restructuring. However she cannot have an opportunity to apply for a parking permit or a space reserved for her. It is highly unfair and against equal opportunities. We request Facilities at UEL to insert, ammend or revise the peak hours parking policy relating to staff who are on maternity leave. 1. They are contacted and asked if a space needs to be reserved by or a mechanism whereby managers contact staff and can request Facilities/Security office to reserve. 2. Facilities/Security office review peak hours parking every semester. Staff go on sabbaitcals and free up space. Facilities/Security should have a system whereby they can have this information and allocate that space to another member of staff 'promptly'. 3. Facilities/Security should work closely with HR and know who has left UEL. Allocate this space to another member.
If peak hours parking is at a premium, then it needs to be managed in an efficient manner.
The signatures on this petition support this and we request Facilities to include the points above in future allocations of peak hours permits.

The emails I receive from Facilities keep dodging the core issue of how they manage these empty spots. It is exhausting to keep explaining that a simple policy change would resolve a problem they claim is unsolvable. I am not stopping until someone in administration acknowledges that staff on leave should not lose their access while others struggle to find a place to park.

The momentum behind this is clear and it proves that people are finally noticing how broken this system has become. I am exhausted by the constant silence from the administration but seeing this support keeps me pushing forward.

Returning to work after having a baby is hard enough without having to stress over a parking space. Please make this fair.
Ridiculous that I have to circle for 20 mins every single day. Managing the spaces better is common sense.
About time something was done. The system is broken.
Total chaos at peak hours. I waste so much petrol every week just looking for a park. Sort it out UEL!
Fix this parking mess!! It is impossible to find a spot before my afternoon shift and way too many spaces sit empty for no reason.

The administration is so out of touch. Just link the parking permits with the HR database and the problem is solved.
