Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Business Segments Business Segments
The Company has three reportable segments: contract talent solutions, permanent placement talent solutions and Protiviti. Operating segments are defined as components of the Company for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), a position currently held by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The contract talent solutions reportable segment results from the aggregation of three operating segments with similar economic and qualitative characteristics: finance and accounting, administrative and customer support, and technology. The contract talent solutions and permanent placement talent solutions segments provide specialized engagement professionals and full-time personnel, respectively, for finance and accounting, technology, marketing and creative, legal, and administrative and customer support roles. The Protiviti segment provides business and technology risk consulting and internal audit services.
The CODM uses segment income to evaluate performance and allocate resources to each segment. Segment income excludes interest income, income taxes and the impacts of the (income) loss from investments held in employee deferred compensation trusts, along with the related compensation costs and expenses. The CODM considers variances between actual results and expectations as well as historical trends for segment income when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel resources to each segment.
The accounting policies of the segments are set forth in Note A—“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”
The following tables provide a reconciliation of service revenues and segment income by reportable segment to consolidated results (in thousands):
