Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Defined Benefit Postretirement Plans Disclosure [Abstract] |
Employee Benefit And Retirement Plans | Employee Benefit and Retirement Plans The Company and its subsidiaries have noncontributory pension, profit sharing and contributory 401(k) plans covering substantially all of their international and domestic employees. Plan benefits are generally based on years of service and/or compensation. The Company's funding policy is to contribute not less than the minimum amounts required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or foreign statutes to ensure that plan assets will be adequate to provide retirement benefits. Included in AOCI at December 31, 2011 is $774.8 million ($501.3 million net of tax) related to net unrecognized actuarial losses and unrecognized prior service credit that have not yet been recognized in net periodic pension cost. The Company expects to recognize $23.0 million ($14.3 million net of tax) of costs in 2012 associated with net actuarial losses and prior service credit. The Company's tax-qualified defined benefit pension plan is frozen for the entire non-union U.S. work force, and the Company has replaced the defined benefit pension plan with an additional defined contribution benefit. The defined contribution benefit has a three-year cliff-vesting schedule. The Company recorded $18.8 million, $17.9 million and $17.3 million in expense for the defined contribution benefit arrangement for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The liability associated with the defined contribution benefit arrangement as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 is $18.8 million and $17.9 million, respectively, and is included in other accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company maintained various nonqualified deferred compensation plans with varying terms. The total liability associated with these plans was $68.7 million and $70.8 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These liabilities are included in other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These plans are partially funded with asset balances of $52.0 million and $51.8 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These assets are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which is a nonqualified defined benefit plan pursuant to which the Company will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain key employees upon retirement based upon the employees' years of service and compensation. The SERP is partially funded through a trust agreement with the Northern Trust Company, as trustee, that owns life insurance policies on approximately 350 active and former key employees with aggregate net death benefits of $297.2 million. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the life insurance contracts were accounted for using the investment method and had a cash surrender value of $102.3 million and $99.8 million, respectively. All premiums paid and proceeds received associated with the life insurance policies are included in accrued liabilities and other in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The SERP is also partially funded through cash and mutual fund investments, which had a combined value of $12.6 million and $15.3 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These assets, as well as the cash surrender value of the life insurance contracts, are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The projected benefit obligation was $119.9 million and $110.5 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The SERP liabilities are included in the pension table below; however, the value of the Company's investments in the life insurance contracts, cash and mutual funds are excluded from the table, as they do not qualify as plan assets under the relevant authoritative guidance. The Company's matching contributions to the contributory 401(k) plan were $14.9 million, $12.9 million and $14.0 million for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(1) | Equity securities are primarily comprised of mutual funds and common/collective trust funds. Investments in mutual funds and common/collective trust funds are valued at the net asset value per share or unit multiplied by the number of shares or units held as of the measurement date. The common/collective trust funds are generally actively managed investment vehicles.
(2) | Fixed income investments are primarily comprised of mutual funds and common/collective trust funds that invest in corporate and government bonds. Investments in mutual funds and common/collective trust funds are valued at the net asset value per share or unit multiplied by the number of shares or units held as of the measurement date. The investments in fixed income securities include both actively managed funds and index funds.
(3) | The fair values of insurance contracts are estimated based on the future cash flows to be received under the contracts discounted to the present using a discount rate that approximates the discount rate used to measure the associated pension plan liabilities.
(4) | Venture capital and partnerships are valued at net asset value, which is generally calculated using the most recent partnership financial reports.
(5) | Real estate investments are generally investments in limited partnerships, real estate investment trusts and similar vehicles that invest in real estate. The values of the investments are generally based on the most recent financial reports of the investment vehicles. The managers of each of the investment vehicles estimate the values of the real estate assets underlying the real estate investments using third-party appraisals and other valuation techniques and analysis.
(6) | Cash and cash equivalents include investments in stable value funds. Stable value funds are generally invested in common trust funds and interest-bearing accounts.
(7) | In the U.S. pension plan assets, certain changes were made to the equity and fixed income investments which resulted in transfers of pension plan assets from certain common/collective trust funds into separately managed investment accounts. The underlying investments in these separately managed accounts are primarily publicly-traded securities, and such investments have been valued using the quoted price as of December 31, 2011. Accordingly, these investments have been classified as Level 1 as of December 31, 2011.
A reconciliation of the change in the fair value measurement of the defined benefit plans' consolidated assets using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for 2011 and 2010 is as follows (in millions):

Investment Strategy The Company has established formal investment policies for the assets associated with its pension plans. The objectives of the investment strategies generally include maximizing long-term return at acceptable risk levels, diversifying among asset classes, if appropriate, as well as establishing relevant risk parameters within each asset class. Investment policies reflect the unique circumstances of the respective plans, and risk tolerance is established through consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status and corporate financial condition. Asset allocation targets are based on periodic asset liability and/or risk budgeting study results, which help determine the appropriate investment strategies for acceptable risk levels. The investment policies permit variances from the targets within certain parameters. The target asset allocations for the Company's U.S. pension plan and primary international pension plans are as follows as of December 31, 2011:
Asset Category | Target
U.S. | International
Equity | 45% | 23%
Fixed income | 40 | 14
Insurance contracts | 5 | 24
Cash and equivalents | — | 21
Other investments (1) | 10 | 18
Total | 100% | 100%
(1) Other investments include private equity funds, hedge funds and real estate funds. Expected Long-term Rate of Return on Plan Assets The Company employs a building-block approach in determining the long-term rate of return for plan assets. Historical markets are studied and long-term historical relationships between equities and fixed income are preserved consistent with the widely accepted capital market principle that assets with higher volatility generate a greater return over the long run. Current market factors, such as inflation and interest rates, are evaluated before long-term capital market assumptions are determined. The long-term portfolio return is established giving consideration to investment diversification and rebalancing. Peer data and historical returns are reviewed to assess for reasonableness and appropriateness. The weighted-average expected long-term rates of return are based on reviews of the target investment allocation and the historical and expected rates of return of the asset classes included in the pension plans' target asset allocations. Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Several of the Company's subsidiaries currently provide retiree health care and life insurance benefits for certain employee groups. The following provides a reconciliation of benefit obligations and funded status of the Company's other postretirement benefit plans as of December 31, (in millions, except percentages):

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost: |  |  |
Discount rate | 5.25% | 5.75% | 6.25%
Long-term health care cost trend rate | 4.50% | 4.50% | 5.00%
Assumed health care cost trends have been used in the valuation of the benefit obligations for postretirement benefits. The trend rate used to measure the benefit obligation was 7.5% for all retirees in 2011, declining to 4.5% in 2028 and thereafter. The health care cost trend rate significantly affects the reported postretirement benefit costs and obligations. A one-percentage point change in the assumed rate would have the following effects (in millions):
| 1% Increase | 1% Decrease
Effect on total of service and interest cost components | $ | 1.0 |  | $ | (0.9 | )
Effect on postretirement benefit obligations | $ | 15.9 |  | $ | (14.0 | )
Estimated Future Benefit Payments Estimated future benefit payments under the Company's defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans are as follows as of December 31, 2011 (in millions):
| 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017-2021
Pension benefits (1) | $ | 95.1 |  | $ | 77.5 |  | $ | 79.0 |  | $ | 80.2 |  | $ | 81.4 |  | $ | 438.3 |
Other postretirement benefits | $ | 13.6 |  | $ | 13.3 |  | $ | 12.9 |  | $ | 12.7 |  | $ | 12.4 |  | $ | 64.2 |
(1) Certain pension benefit payments will be funded by plan assets. The estimated other postretirement benefit payments are net of annual Medicare Part D subsidies of approximately $2.1 million per year. The Company expects to make direct cash benefit payments of approximately $13.6 million for its other postretirement benefit plans in 2012.
