Subsequent Events [Abstract]
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, was reported to have originated in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared that the virus had become a global public-health emergency. On March 11, 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak to be a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. Many countries around the world have imposed quarantines and restrictions on travel and mass gatherings to slow the spread of the virus. During April and May 2020 some of our customers continue to have instituted hiring freezes, while other customers operating in the banking, pharmaceutical and technology industries, which may be considered as essential businesses in different jurisdictions, or customers that are more capable of working remotely than other industries, have been allowed to operate as usual. The inability to conduct in-person interviews has also impacted our business. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted certain currencies compared to the U.S. dollar in several countries we operate in, including Australia. While the Company expects this matter to negatively impact its operating results, the expected impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. In early April 2020, the Company's wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, Hudson Global Resources Management, Inc. applied for a $1.3 million loan in connection with the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) as part of the CARES Act, administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in applying for the loan the Company made a good faith assertion based upon the degree of uncertainty introduced to the capital markets and the industries affecting the Company's customers and the Company's dependency to curtail expenses to fund ongoing operations as the anticipated reduction in RPO recruitment revenue is expected to impact the business. The loan proceeds were received on April 26, 2020. The PPP loan proceeds will be used to help offset payroll costs over the course of eight weeks as stipulated in the legislation. All or a portion of the PPP loan may be forgiven by the SBA upon application by the Company and upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered mortgage interest and covered utilities during the eight-week period beginning on the date of loan approval. The Company intends to comply with the loan forgiveness provisions in the legislation, however, there are no assurances that the Company will obtain forgiveness for any portion of the loan.
