Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Pension and Post-Employment Benefits | NOTE 7 – PENSION AND POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS The Company maintains a defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) covering a number of its current and former employees in the United Kingdom, although it does also have other much smaller pension arrangements in the U.S. and overseas. The Plan is closed to future service accrual but has a large number of deferred and current pensioners. The net service cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million and $0.6 million respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2019 – $0.3 million and $0.5 million respectively) and has been recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses within corporate costs. The following table shows the income statement effect recognized within other income, net:

The amortization of prior service credit and actuarial net losses is a reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into other income and expense. The Company also maintains an unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering a number of its current and former employees in Germany (the “German plan”) within our Fuel Specialties segment. The German plan is closed to new entrants and has no assets. The net service cost for the German plan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2019 – $0.1 million and $0.1 million respectively) and has been recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. The following table shows the income statement effect recognized within other income and expense:
|  | Three Months Ended June 30 |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30 |
