Car park policy

Whether your parking area is large or small, public or private, you must ensure that it can be used safely. Use our new policy to set out your arrangements and allocate responsibilities.

What’s covered?

The primary hazard in a car park is obviously moving vehicles. But when you’re planning your safety arrangements you need to think further. For example, have you ensured that sight lines are unobstructed and the layout is well designed?

In addition to vehicle hazards, there are myriad factors to consider, from slippery surfaces to lone working car park attendants. Our Car Parks Policy aims to identify all the key areas you’ll need to manage. It’s designed for the largest and most complex facilities but can be adapted to smaller spaces. All you need to do is trim down the document to remove the parts which don’t apply.
