Not For Profit Employee Wellbeing Services
Contact us to ask for further information on how we can support your staff to reduce their financial worries at work.
The financial stability established by the availability of savings or low-cost loans is seen as a real benefit by employees who use our Salary Savings Schemes. We help reduce stress caused by financial problems, reducing staff turnover, sickness levels, and absenteeism.
As a co-operative we are not driven by profit so it means that we can and do help a broader range of people than the many investor led rivals whose decision making is led by profit margins. Watch this video from the England Illegal Money Lending Team.

Employers Salary Savings Scheme
The Employee Benefit Scheme For Employers and Employees
The credit union is a not for profit co-operative that encourages saving as an alternative to borrowing, but also provides low cost loans at times of need. We run salary savings and loans schemes for dozens of employers, large and small who are interested in promoting the wellbeing of staff. Unlike others claiming to be ‘social businesses’, we are owned by our customers with profits returned to our members rather than external shareholders. Others encourage people to borrow, repeating the debt trap.
Evidence shows that people are much more likely to have a savings account where employers have a salary savings scheme with the credit union. The financial wellbeing & resilience provided by the availability of savings or low-cost loans is seen as a real benefit by employees and employers who use the service. This in turn can reduce stress caused by financial problems, reducing staff turnover, sickness levels, and absenteeism.
If you would like to offer your employees access to secure savings accounts, support with money management and low cost loans, please contact us.
If your employer is already working with us, simply complete the form below and we will take care of the rest.

Why Choose the Credit Union to Provide Financial Wellbeing For Your Employees?
The credit union is a not-for-profit co-operative with any profits being returned to our customer members. Our objective is to encourage saving as a way of avoiding problem debt, but we also offer affordable credit at times of need. With no external investors we can offer smaller loans at lower rates than most of our competitors to meet the needs of all of your employees with a salary deduction savings & loans scheme.
In recent years there have been many start-up companies providing salary deduction services to employers. These companies describe themselves as ‘social businesses’ but the model involves huge capital investment, salaries and marketing budgets that limit the degree that they can benefit your employees. The need to repay the capital investment and pay a return to external investors means that their focus is on high value lending rather than encouraging saving, and taking fewer risks when offering loans. Such firms are unlikely to be in a position to help many lower paid or heavily indebted staff because of the ownership structure and levels of investment to be repaid.
Our not for profit ethos means that our services are likely to be available to a much broader range of your staff, particularly those most in need if financial help. Choosing a credit union to provide salary deduction savings & loans service with money management tools means all of your staff can be supported.
