Ford employs 85,000 U.S. workers -- a rise of 50 percent in the last five years.
Earlier in September, Ford's CEO Mark Fields confirmed the company would migrate all of its small-car production to Mexico over the next two-to-three years.
Ford currently employs 8,800 people in Mexico and the new plant will create 2,800 additional jobs there.
