Staff Parking Priority Groups and Eligibility

Parking access is granted according to priority and the number of available bays. The number of people wishing to park onsite at any particular time may vary, and as such, a parking bay cannot be guaranteed. This is a condition outlined in the Parking Permit Application Terms and Conditions.

Regular contracted shifts that start or finish outside of core hours (7:00am to 6:30pm). For the purpose of the Priority Parking Policy, ‘regular contracted hours’ is defined as; a constant or definite pattern recurring at uniform intervals.

Staff who have the option to work between 7:00am and 6:30pm but choose to start or finish outside of these hours for personal preference or other similar reasons not related to their employment, will be deemed as core hour workers and fall into Priority Group 3.

For the purpose of the Priority Parking Policy, the term ‘staff’ refers to an employee of any QEIIMC tenant or sub tenant, who spends the majority of their rostered hours working at the QEIIMC.

Any staff member, regardless of their employer may apply for a parking permit. All parking applications will be assessed against the Priority Groups outlined in the Priority Parking Policy. The contract is between the user/applicant and International Parking Group, so the staff member must apply for parking themselves and the Terms and Conditions must be acknowledged and agreed upon by the applicant when applying for a permit or renewing an existing permit.

Approved applicants are subject to the QEIIMC Trust Priority Parking Policy.

Yes, the QEIIMC has accessible parking bays available for staff with a valid ACROD permit. Staff with ACROD permits will need to apply for a parking permit and provide photographic evidence of their ACROD permit. Once the staff member has a parking permit, they will be advised by the QEIIMC Parking Department which accessible bays they can utilise. Please note having an ACROD permit does not give you free or discounted parking.

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.

Email: QEII.Parking@health.wa.gov.au

If you have been categorised in Priority Group 3 and you are a Primary Carer, you will need to provide additional supporting documentation to substantiate your application.

A Statutory Declaration is to be submitted as a variation to an existing staff parking permit or when submitting a new staff parking permit application. Status of parking access will remain until QEIIMC Parking Department has approved and a notification has been sent. If not approved, access will not be changed.

Primary Carers of children under 16 are required to submit a completed Statutory Declaration form to the QEIIMC Parking Department. With the below information;

The QEIIMC Trust has facilitated the increase in parking to the maximum allowable number of 5,350 parking bays across the QEIIIMC Reserve.

5,350 is the maximum number of bays allowed in accordance with the Western Australian Planning Commission’s (WAPC) cap on bay numbers for this site. These bays are made up of:

• Maximum 4,000 staff bays
• 1,200 visitor bays
• 150 special purpose, short term and Accessibility bays

The WAPC has determined the 5,350 parking bay cap at QEIIMC in accordance with State Planning strategies and considerations, providing for accessible, sustainable roadways access into and away from the City of Perth precinct, given the current level of development. WAPC’s determination takes into consideration the current public transport options and looks toward an increase in public transport use in preference to single occupant vehicle use and avoid road saturation.

Travelling off campus is not taken into consideration as part of the Parking Priority Policy and your parking access would remain the same. If your position requires you to travel between sites; transport will need to be arranged by your department e.g. use of available fleet vehicles or by a taxi voucher.

At QEIIMC, staff members are generally not permitted to use visitor parking areas, even for short-term meetings. These parking spaces are reserved exclusively for patients and visitors to the medical centre. Staff are encouraged to plan accordingly for meetings to ensure visitor parking remains available for its intended use.

Understanding the unique requirements of night duty staff, QEIIMC strives to provide appropriate parking arrangements. Reserved parking spots are typically allocated for staff working night shifts to ensure convenient and safe parking options. These spots are designated to accommodate the schedules and safety needs of night duty staff members.

The allocation for this group is based on the essential nature of their roles and the need for immediate access to the hospital, especially during unconventional hours. Staff who apply stating that they undertake on-call duties (Weekdays only) must also send through a copy of a current (within 3 months) roster showing their on-call duties. On-call rosters are to be emailed through to the Parking Department.

Please note, on-call does not include Staff that choose to attend work of their own accord outside of regular contracted hours.

‍

Students are not eligible for parking at QEIIMC. Students can only park at the staff parking rates if they are working an afternoon or a night shift, otherwise visitor rates will apply.

At QEIIMC, we understand the unique needs of shift workers and provide reserved parking options to accommodate their varying schedules. 300 Designated parking bays are available for staff working afternoon/ night duty. These bays are located on Level 1 in the Multi Deck Car Park and available after 11:00 AM. Staff members parking on Level 1 prior to 11:00 AM may be issued an infringement notice.

It is not recommended that staff park in visitor bays as this affects the amount of staff bays we can have. For example, if more staff park as visitors, we will need to decrease staff parking capacity and increase visitor parking capacity.

If staff need to attend the QEIIMC site for personal reasons, they are required to pay the visitor parking fees and park in a ‘Pay by Plate’ car park and purchase a visitor ticket from a nearby pay station and clearly display a valid ticket on the dashboard.

Staff members who are granted a parking permit are issued an RFID tag for their vehicle. Staff members parking in visitor parking can be identified by the RFID tag on the staff member’s vehicle. Parking attendants monitor staff and visitor parking seven days a week. Infringements may apply for incorrect usage of a parking permit.

‍

Wilson Parking provides 24 hour monitoring through CCTV in the Multi Deck Car Park and digital intercoms. Wilson Parking attendants are on site in the Multi Deck Car Park 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Services include monitoring the barrier gates and pay machines.
