Although General Motors is not directly mentioned, the move by Ford could put pressure on GM to make similar commitments to its workforce. As GM is also transitioning to electric vehicles, it may face expectations from its employees and the public to ensure job security during this transition.

Stellantis, although not directly mentioned, could face similar pressures as GM. As the industry shifts towards electric vehicles, companies like Stellantis may be expected to ensure job security for their workforce during this transition.

The assurance from Ford's CEO about job security despite the introduction of new battery plants is a positive signal. It shows the company's commitment to its workforce during a period of significant technological transition. This could boost employee morale, potentially leading to increased productivity and a positive impact on the company's performance.
