Save@Work
Welcome to Scotwest Save@Work, a FREE benefit for employers across Scotland* to offer their teams.
What?
Put simply, Save@Work allows employees to save (or borrow) directly through your payroll to your Scotwest Saver Account.
This is completely free for both employers and employees regardless of the size of your business, and the impact on your pay office or HR team is minimal.
Why?
Why offer this benefit to your team? 
Businesses worldwide are now more aware of their responsibilities to their employees and how issues they face outside for work can affect them.
Offering employees the option to save by payroll deduction gives them the chance to get into the savings habit and there is a well identified link between regular saving and financial well-being.
Why would your employees join Scotwest?
Access to financial services is essential for dignity and a decent life and here at Scotwest we have an amazing opportunity as well as an important responsibility to bring about positive change. Our purpose is to broaden
financial inclusion and promote our Members’ financial resilience, security and wellbeing.
We provide a range of savings products including our popular Christmas Savings Account and notice accounts for longer term savers looking to maximise the return on their savings. Members can also borrow from us at fair and competitive rates knowing that the interest paid on their loan goes back to the credit union alone to improve services and pay dividend on all member savings.
Members enjoy our free benefit Scotwest Choice an exclusive portal to a world of shopping deals, discounted memberships, promotions, cashback and more
Don’t hesitate. You don’t miss the money if it’s coming out of your salary and it’s incredible what you can achieve just by putting that little bit away. I haven’t been a successful saver in the past but Scotwest has opened my eyes to the possibilities and made it much easier for me to make a difference in my life.”

How?
The admin work in setting up Save@Work is minimal and each payroll cycle only involves a single exchange of info and funds transfer with our team.
All engagement around issues or enquiries relating to accounts are between us and your employees – our relationship is with them as Members of the credit union and not the employer.
We are the data controller of the personal information provided by Members who join us. We will not request any information from you that has not already been provided by your employee so you should not consider us a data processor for you. You can find out more about how we use and store data here.
To arrange for your workplace to become one of our latest employer partners and offer Scotwest Save@Work to your colleagues, give us a call on 0141 227 2390 or email us at wellbeing@scotwest.co.uk
