RESTRUCTURING
3. RESTRUCTURING

On an ongoing basis, the Company reviews the global economy, the healthcare industry, and the markets in which it competes to identify opportunities for efficiencies, enhance commercial capabilities, align its resources and offer its customers better solutions. In order to realize these opportunities, the Company undertakes restructuring-type activities to transform its business.

In July 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new Operational Excellence Program (the "2020 Program") and delegated authority to the Company's management to determine the detail of the initiatives that will comprise the program. The 2020 Program is designed to improve operational performance and reduce cost principally in our manufacturing and supply chain operations. The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate charges between $60 million and $70 million in connection with the 2020 Program. These charges, the majority of which will result in cash outlays, including severance and other employee costs, will be incurred as the specific actions required to execute these initiatives are identified and approved and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of fiscal 2023. During the three and nine months ended December 28, 2019, the Company incurred $3.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of restructuring and turnaround costs under this program. Total cumulative charges under this program are $6.8 million.

During fiscal 2018, the Company launched a Complexity Reduction Initiative (the "2018 Program"), a company-wide restructuring program designed to improve operational performance and reduce cost, freeing up resources to invest in accelerated growth. During the three and nine months ended December 28, 2019, the Company incurred $3.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of restructuring and turnaround costs under this program. During the three and nine months ended December 29, 2018, the Company incurred $1.9 million and $7.3 million, respectively, of restructuring and turnaround costs under this program. Total cumulative charges under this program are $57.0 million.

The following table summarizes the activity for restructuring reserves for the nine months ended December 28, 2019, substantially all of which relates to employee severance and other employee costs:

In addition to the restructuring costs included in the table above, the Company also incurred costs that do not constitute restructuring under ASC 420, Exit and Disposal Cost Obligations, which the Company refers to as turnaround costs. These costs, substantially all of which have been included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income, consist primarily of expenditures directly related to the
restructuring actions and include program management costs associated with the implementation of outsourcing initiatives and recent accounting standards.

The tables below present restructuring and turnaround costs by the Company's three reportable segments as well as the Company's other corporate restructuring and turnaround costs:
