From a safety point of view, organizations are typically enforcing the reverse parking for in the event of an evacuation vehicles parked in reverse will maneuver out of the parking space quickly. Because in an event of plant explosion seconds matter and this is true.
Now, shall we say I do not know that rule because I haven't worked in an organization enforcing the reverse parking. Reasonably, entering a slot with vehicles already on both sides of the slot will be difficult given that the area to maneuver is limited. The reverse parking is the better method because the pivot wheels maneuver the rear wheels creating tight curve. The car will need less space than facing wall parking.
Finally, reverse parking is a form of car body language suggesting how intelligent the driver in the vehicle is. I hope this gives you a better understanding.

1) Reverse parking is mandatory requirement in many organizations especially in construction industries, where safety is first priority. According to many emergency exercise and drills results, emergency evacuation done much more faster if vehicles parked reverse. Also it does not create hassle in the parking during emergency.
2) From other point of view, according to various reports, most of parking related accidents happened due to "backover crashes" when driver hit another car while backing out from his parking space.
Reverse parking takes little bit more time to park in, but less time to move out of the parking. In HSE we call reverse parking a "tactical parking".
because it is making the environment safer,
