Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events On June 4, 2020, we announced a continuation of the Company's COVID-19 action plan. Effective as of June 4, 2020, the Company reduce its global workforce by about 10%, or approximately 850 employees, across its manufacturing, retail and corporate locations, including the closure of its Newton, Mississippi upholstery manufacturing facility. Production from the Newton facility will be shifted to available capacity at the company’s Dayton, Tennessee, Neosho, Missouri, and Siloam Springs, Arkansas plants. The Newton facility employs about 300 people, accounts for approximately 10% of the La-Z-Boy branded business total upholstery production, and manufactures La-Z-Boy recliners, motion sofas and classics (high-leg recliners). The Newton-based integrated internal supply functions will remain in operation. Approximately 170 individuals work across these areas and will remain with the company. We expect to incur approximately $5 million to $7 million in fiscal 2021 of one-time pre-tax charges related to these initiatives, the majority of which will be realized in the first quarter.
