Ford said the UAW’s walkout last week at its Kentucky Truck Plant prompted the new layoffs at a Michigan axle plant. Another 16,600 Ford employees are on strike at three assembly plants, including Kentucky Truck, the company’s largest plant worldwide.

The targeted strike against the Detroit Three automakers Ford, General Motors (GM.N) and Chrysler-parent Stellantis (STLAM.MI) began on Sept. 15.
