DETROIT (AP) — Ford CEO Jim Hackett is apologizing for multiple instances of sexual harassment at an assembly plant in Chicago.
In a letter sent to employees, Hackett said Ford won't tolerate harassment or retaliation against workers who report it.
He says he plans to visit the Chicago plant early next year to talk with workers.
Ford has settled two separate lawsuits, in 1999 and earlier this year, with women who were repeatedly harassed at the Chicago plant.
Hackett says Ford Motor Co. has conducted 20,000 hours of training to combat harassment at the plant over the last two years.
