Retirement Benefits [Abstract]  
Defined Benefit Obligations and Funded Status [Table Text Block]
The following table, which includes only company-sponsored defined benefit plans, reconciles the beginning and ending balances of our projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets. We recognize the underfunded status of our defined benefit pension plans on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize changes in funded status in the year changes occur through other comprehensive income (loss).

_______________________________________ 

(a)
Prior to the remeasurements of our qualified defined benefit pension plan on April 25, 2018, and August 10, 2018, the discount rates were 3.40% and 4.05%, respectively, and the expected rates of return on plan assets were 4.75% and 4.50%, respectively. The discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets after the August 10, 2018 remeasurement were 3.95% and 3.85%, respectively.

(b)
Pension benefits for all salaried employees are frozen, resulting in an assumption for the rate of compensation increase of zero. In addition to the salaried benefits being frozen, there are currently no scheduled increases in pension benefit rates applicable to past service covering the minimal number of hourly employees who continue to accrue benefits.

_______________________________________ 

(a)
Securities represent common collective trusts managed and valued by Russell Trust Company, the administrator of the funds. While the underlying assets are actively traded on an exchange, the funds are not. The investments in equity and fixed-income securities are considered to have a readily determinable fair value because the fair value per share (unit) is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions. We have the ability to redeem these securities with a 1 day notice.

(b)
Invested in the Russell Long Duration Fixed Income Fund at December 31, 2019 and 2018, which is designed to provide current income and capital appreciation through diversified strategies including sector rotation, modest interest rate timing, security selection, and tactical use of high-yield, emerging market bonds and other non-index securities. In addition, at December 31, 2019 and 2018, our investments in this category included the Russell 14 Year LDI Fixed Income Fund. We also were invested in the Russell 8 Year LDI Fixed Income Fund at December 31, 2019. These LDI funds invest primarily in investment grade bonds that closely match those found in discount rate curves used to value U.S. pension liabilities and seeks to provide additional incremental return through modest interest rate timing, security selection, and tactical use of non-credit sectors. In addition, at December 31, 2019 and 2018, our investments in this category included Russell STRIPS Fixed Income Funds with duration profiles of 10, 15, and 28 years. These funds invest in a subset of the STRIPS universe with a similar duration profile as their respective Bloomberg Barclays U.S. STRIPS Index.

(c)
Invested in the Russell Multi-Asset Core Plus Fund, which is designed to provide long-term growth by providing a diversified portfolio of investments that has an overall strategic allocation of 75% global equity, 15% marketable real assets, and 10% global fixed income.
