This is the latest of a series of tips extracted from the Green Business Bible e-book:

Manage on-site parking to encourage greener forms of commuting – ideas include:

• Putting covered cycle racks near the front door.
• Limiting parking permits: a fair and transparent method of allocating permits based on need rather than seniority is required to avoid staff insurrection;
• Paying extra to those who do not take a permit;
• Charging daily parking charges can give staff more flexibility than permits. For example an employee may use the bus most days, but needs to use a car one day a week for the school run.
