​ When a decision is made to take restructuring actions, the Company manages and accounts for them programmatically apart from the on-going operations of the business. Information related to major programs is presented separately, while minor initiatives are presented on a combined basis. As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, no major restructuring programs were in effect. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company implemented several discrete restructuring initiatives and recorded restructuring, asset impairment and other charges of $5 million and $72 million, respectively. These charges consisted of employee costs, such as severance and benefit-related costs, write-down of assets and other exit costs, primarily related to a plant closure in the Americas and to a reduction-in-force program as part of its selling, general and administrative expense reduction initiative to help simplify the organization and improve decision making and execution. These restructuring charges were discrete actions and are expected to approximate the total cumulative costs for those actions as no significant additional costs are expected to be incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, these charges were recorded to Other expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cash expenditures related to the accrued employee and other exit costs will be paid out over the next several years. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company implemented several discrete restructuring initiatives and recorded restructuring and other charges of $24 million and $56 million, respectively. These charges consisted of employee costs such as severance and benefit-related costs and other exit costs primarily related to a severance program for certain salaried employees at the Company’s corporate and Americas headquarters and a furnace closure in the Americas. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, these charges were recorded to Other expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, these charges were recorded to Selling and administrative expense ($2 million) and Other expense, net ($54 million) on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write-downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying value exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell. The Company classified the assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets in the period that the measurement was taken as Level 3 (third-party appraisal) in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. For the asset impairments recorded through September 30, 2020, the remaining carrying value of the impaired assets was approximately $1 million.
