What is the Common Bond and why is it so important?
The Common Bond is the factor, which unites the members of the Credit Union- it is what members have in common. The Common Bond ensures that the savings of members of the community or workplace are available to fellow members as loans.
RTÉ Credit Union’s Common Bond is its workforce. Membership is open to all RTÉ staff employed on a permanent, continuous, or long-term contract basis. Family members of RTÉ staff can join and that's family living in the same household. Staff of CEL, DDTN, Raidio na Gaeltachta, TG4, RTÉ Sports & Social Club and RTÉ Benevolent Society are also eligible to apply for membership.
