6. RESTRUCTURING

As of March 31, 2022, approximately $13 million out of the $58 million in total reserve balance can be attributed to the structural efficiency program initiated in the second quarter of 2020 and mainly relates to Europe. This program is expected to be concluded in 2022. Approximately $24 million of the total reserve balance can be attributed to footprint optimization activities in Europe initiated in the third quarter of 2020. These activities are expected to be concluded in 2023. The provision charge for the three months period ended March 31, 2022 mainly relates to footprint optimization activities in Asia. Approximately $31 million of the cash payments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 relates to footprint optimization activities in Asia in the fourth quarter of 2021 and in the first quarter of 2022.

The restructuring reserve balances are included within Accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The changes in the employee-related reserves have been charged against Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
