Oh, no, they're not exactly the same. They wouldn't come into conflict if they were the same.

As another example, unions. Employees often see issues early on; perhaps a machine needing maintenance. A union can bring this up to management and put the pressure on to get it done. The business will save money in the long run with machines in proper maintenance.

If it doesn't get done, best case scenario is that it fails and the whole production line is shot until it's fixed. Worst case, it fails more catastrophically and damages other equipment, or injures workers.

Despite plenty of stories like this, companies will fight unionization efforts every time. Why? Because money doesn't always align with power.
