Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

In 2022, we announced organizational changes to support our enterprise strategy of accelerating our digital transformation and productivity initiatives. We continued to execute upon these digital transformation and productivity initiatives in 2023, which resulted in further restructuring charges to better align our workforce as a result of these initiatives and in consideration of the changing freight transportation market. We recognized additional restructuring charges of $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 primarily related to workforce reductions. We expect to complete our restructuring actions by the end of 2023.

For severance and other operating expenses related to restructuring activities, we paid $12.0 million in cash in the second quarter of 2023 with the majority of the remaining $8.7 million accrued as of June 30, 2023 expected to be paid by the end of 2023.
