Enriching municipal employees, individually and collectively, since 1945<\/h3>

Our group caisse supports municipal employees and fire safety professionals throughout Quebec, both individually and collectively through municipal organizations, keeping us closely connected to their reality.<\/p>\n

In 1945, a firefighter and a City of Montr\u00e9al civil servant joined forces to establish workplace savings cooperatives. By pooling their financial resources, they aimed to foster financial independence and better meet their needs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Connected to the municipal world<\/h2>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Municipal employees, backed by their associations, have a collective say in setting the direction of the caisse. Together, they work to find tangible ways to address the specific needs of their members.<\/p>\n
