Restructuring RESTRUCTURING
In accordance with the applicable guidance for ASC 712, Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits, we accounted for contractual termination benefits and recognized liabilities when the loss was considered probable that employees were entitled to benefits and the amounts could be reasonably estimated.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred costs for termination benefits of $22.5 million, $27.0 million, $13.7 million and $32.2 million, respectively. Pretax charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relate to additional employee severance charges within Europe that were excluded from the previously announced global restructuring during July 2020 as we resolved the open aspects related to works council consultations and local legal requirements during the quarter. The majority of our termination benefits are recorded within other operating (benefits) charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The remaining payments associated with these actions are expected to be substantially completed within 24 months.
The following table summarizes the activity related to termination benefit reserves and expenses from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021:
