Multiemployer Pension Plans [Abstract]  
Schedule of multiemployer plans
a.
Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

b.
If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

c.
If the Company chooses to stop participating in one of its multiemployer plans, it may be required to pay the plan an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as withdrawal liability.

The Company's participation in these plans for the annual period ended December 31, 2012, is outlined in the table below. The "EIN/Pension Plan Number" row provides the Employee Identification Number ("EIN") and the three-digit plan number, if applicable. Unless otherwise noted, the most recent Pension Protection Act ("PPA") zone status available in 2012 and 2011 is for the plan's year-end at April 30, 2012 and April 30, 2011, respectively, if applicable. The zone status is based on information that the Company received from the plan and is certified by the plan's actuary. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are generally less than 65 percent funded, plans in the yellow zone are less than 80 percent funded, and plans in the green zone are at least 80 percent funded. The "FIP/RP Status Pending/implemented" row indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan ("FIP") or a rehabilitation plan ("RP") is either pending or has been implemented. The last row lists the expiration dates of the collective-bargaining agreements to which the plans are subject. There have been no significant changes, affecting period-to-period comparability of contributions, to the number of employees covered by the Company's multiemployer plans from 2010 to 2012.
