FITCHBURG, Mass. — Credit unions that aren't growing are in danger of disappearing.

Workers' Credit Union recently created the position of "Senior Vice President, Community and Governmental Affairs and Commercial Business Development" and added a new business development team to keep its growth on track.

The over $555 million CU hired Dave W. Rodgers, who previously served for the past 11 years as senior vice president of Fitchburg Savings Bank managing community relations, facilities and business development activities. Prior to that he served as senior vice president of asset evaluation for the former Safety Fund Bank for six years.
