Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]


Note 13			Company Restructuring

The Company undertakes various programs to reduce expenses. These programs generally involve a reduction in staffing levels, and in certain cases, office closures. Restructuring and related charges primarily include the following costs related to these programs:

•Employee - severance and relocation benefits

•Exit - contract termination penalties and real estate costs primarily related to accelerated amortization of right-of-use assets and related leasehold improvements at facilities to be vacated

The expenses related to these activities are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as restructuring and related charges and

totaled $27 million and $1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $54 million and $13 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Restructuring expenses during the second quarter and first six months of 2023 are primarily due to real estate costs related to facilities being vacated and employee costs related to global workforce enablement, including outsourcing various elements of operations. The Company continues to identify ways to improve operating efficiency and reduce cost which may result in additional restructuring charges in the future.
