    Parking Permits at Queen Elizabeth II Medical Centre (QEIIMC)

    At QEIIMC, parking permits are required to manage fair access to parking facilities for our diverse staff. We strive for a system that accommodates everyone’s needs, prioritizing shift workers and primary carers. This approach demonstrates our commitment to equitable resource management and the efficient operation of healthcare services.

    Understanding the Permit Application Process

    The application process for a parking permit at QEIIMC is designed to be transparent and user-friendly:

    • Eligibility and Documentation: Staff should first check their eligibility, which may depend on their role and shift patterns. Necessary documentation, including primary carer statutory declaration, on-call roster, if applicable, shift schedules, must be provided.
    • Completing the Application Form: The application form requires information about the applicant’s parking needs, role and hours worked at QEIIMC.
    • Submission of Application: Applications are submitted to the QEIIMC Parking Department for processing via the online form.
    • Review Process: The Parking Department reviews each application, considering parking space demand and individual circumstances.

    Application Process for Parking Permits

    The process for applying for a staff parking permit at QEIIMC is designed to be as accessible and straightforward as possible:

    Step-by-Step Application Guide:

    1. Form Submission: Staff members begin by filling out a parking permit application form, which is available online.
    2. Documentation: Along with the form, applicants must submit any supporting documents. These might include copy of ACROD permits, on-call or shift roster/schedule, primary carer and medical statutory declarations.
    3. Submission and Review:
    • Once an online application form has been submitted, it is electronically sent to the staff member’s Head of Department for approval or to be declined.
    • Once an application has been submitted and approved or declined, the form is returned electronically to the Parking Department to be processed.
    • If approved, a permit is assigned within 2 – 5 working days and staff will need to collect from the Wilson Parking Office in person. The email notification sent to staff will need to be presented on collection.
    • If the application is declined, the employee will be contacted by the Parking Department to explain the reasons for why the application was declined and will need to submit a new application form online with any corrections.

    Permit Collection:

    • Staff will be notified via the email address provided in the application when their parking permit is available for collection.
    • The Wilson Parking Office is located on the ground floor of the Multi-Deck car park. The office hours for permit collection are 8:30am – 3:30pm, Monday to Friday excluding public holidays.

    Contact Information:

    • The Parking Department remains available for any questions or assistance needed during the application process and if there are any enquiries regarding the parking access staff have been allocated.

    Renewal and Management of Permits

    The renewal and management of parking permits involves:

    • Periodic Permit Renewal: Staff must periodically renew their permits, updating any relevant changes in circumstances.
    • Management of Parking Permits: The Parking Department oversees all aspects of permit management, including renewals, parking allocation audits, shift audits and adjustments to parking arrangements as staff circumstances change.

    Show less
    Dropdown icon

    Due to the restrictions that are in place across the QEIIMC site the Priority Parking Policy is the benchmark for all applications to be based on and as such there is no appeal system in place. The QEII Parking Department assess every parking application that has been approved by your Head of Department and assign parking access in accordance to the Priority Groups outlined in the Priority Parking Policy.

    If you have completed your online application form incorrectly, you are welcome to re-submit a new online application. Ensure that you complete all questions truthfully and take special note to read any details or conditions that may appear in the application steps throughout the questionnaire.

    If you are a Primary Carer, you will need to submit a Statutory Declaration form stating that you are the Primary Carer, who you are a Primary Carer for, respective dates of birth and the nature of your care. NB: Status of parking access will remain until the Statutory Declaration has been assessed, approved and a notification has been sent to you with your updated parking allocation. If not approved, access will not be changed.

    Regular audits are conducted by the QEIIMC Parking Department for existing parkers in attempt to apply fairness and equitability. If you know of any colleagues or staff members that you believe to have been issued everyday parking access that appears to be outside of the Policy, you can email the Parking Department and note your observations so they may be taken into consideration. Any information we receive will be treated as strictly confidential. Similarly, no information about the parker you are informing the Parking Department of will be issued to the enquirer.
