What I was saying was more along the lines of "Make things so good your employees won't see a benefit to unionisation" than "We already listen". One is outcomes focused, the other vaguely 'effort' focused, and easy to lie about.

Company-run unions tend to be pointless - at best, acting as a bit of an advisory body that'll back down the moment push comes to shove.
