HR and Benefits: Active Employee Handbook

Employee Credit Unions

Employee credit unions are non-profit financial institutions that provide loans and other financial services to their members. Because credit unions are owned by their members — in this case, by Metro employees — they can often provide more favorable rates and services to you than traditional banks. Services typically include:

  • savings accounts
  • checking accounts
  • home loans (first and second)
  • auto and boat loans
  • individual retirement accounts (IRAs)
  • certificates of deposits (CDs)

Four credit unions are available to Metro employees:

  • U.S. Community Credit Union (for General Government employees)
  • Nashville Firemen's Credit Union
  • Metro Police Department Employee Credit Union
  • Nashville General Hospital Credit Union
