Restructuring Charges
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded restructuring charges, net of adjustments, of $2.6 million and $10.2 million, respectively. Americas segment restructuring charges of $2.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, were related to severance costs for staff reductions in our Northern North America and Latin America Regions. International segment restructuring charges of $3.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, were primarily related to severance costs for staff reductions associated with our ongoing initiatives to drive profitable growth in Europe. Corporate segment restructuring charges of $4.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, related primarily to the legal and operational realignment of our U.S. and Canadian operations.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded restructuring charges, net of adjustments, of $3.2 million and $16.9 million, respectively. Americas segment restructuring charges of $12.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, related primarily to a non-cash special termination benefit expense of $11.4 million for a voluntary retirement incentive package ("VRIP") as well as severance from staff reductions in Brazil. All benefits for the VRIP were paid from our over funded North America pension plan. International segment restructuring charges of $4.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were related to severance costs for staff reductions associated with our ongoing initiatives to drive profitable growth in Europe and right size our operations in Australia and Africa.
