Restructuring And Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring and Other Charges | 13. Restructuring and Other Charges Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, management approved several restructuring actions to streamline our business, eliminate costs and redirect resources to our highest return activities. These actions included the May 2013 Plan, the March 2014 Plan, the May 2015 Plan and the March 2016 Plan, under which we reduced our global workforce by approximately 7%, 4%, 3%, and 11%, respectively. We have completed all of these activities, with the exception of the March 2016 Plan, which we expect to complete by the second quarter of fiscal 2017 with no significant additional charges. Restructuring and other charges related to these plans consisted primarily of employee severance-related costs. Activities related to these plans are summarized as follows (in millions):
