Restructuring Charges
In January 2016, we realigned our field support functions by combining our three regions into two field groups, consolidating our areas and streamlining select operational support roles at our Phoenix headquarters. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2016, we began the redesign of our back-office functions as well as the consolidation of over 100 customer service locations into three Customer Resource Centers. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred restructuring charges of $4.1 million and $8.5 million, respectively, that consisted of severance and other employee termination benefits, transition costs, relocation benefits, and the closure of offices with lease agreements with non-cancelable terms. The savings realized from these restructuring efforts have been reinvested in our customer-focused programs and initiatives.
In January 2018, we eliminated certain positions following the consolidation of select back-office functions, including but not limited to the integration of our National Accounts support functions into our existing corporate support functions. These changes include a reduction in administrative staffing and closing of certain office locations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we incurred restructuring charges of $3.8 million and $13.3 million, respectively, that primarily consisted of severance and other employee termination benefits and the closure of offices with lease agreements with non-cancelable terms. We paid $4.2 million and $12.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, related to these restructuring efforts.
We expect to incur additional charges of between approximately $5 million to $10 million during the remainder of 2018, primarily related to employee severance costs, lease exit and contract termination costs and the relocation of certain employees. Substantially all of these restructuring charges will be recorded in our corporate segment.
