Ford says 1,000 workers took similar packages earlier in the year.

The company has more workers than it needs to produce cars at current sales levels, said spokesman3 Mark Truby.

It is not known how many workers Ford expects to take the packages.

Ford employed 89,000 people in the US at the start of 2009, but that number has dropped to 80,200 through buyouts并购投资 and layoffs解雇,裁员.

The buyout package, offered to workers with at least a year of service, includes $50,000 (£31,167) cash and either a $25,000 voucher4保证人 to buy a Ford vehicle or $20,000 extra cash.

Retirement5-eligible workers can take the buyout but must wait up to 18 months before retiring.

The retirement package includes $40,000 for skilled and $20,000 for non-skilled employees.

Earlier this year, 1,000 workers took similar packages, the company said in July.

Workers have until 22 January to accept the offer.

Ford announced profits of almost $1bn between July and September thanks to increased market share and a successful cost-cutting programme.
