​ The remaining restructuring and other accruals are expected to be paid or extinguished during the next twelve months and are all classified as current liabilities within Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Severance Charges In the normal course of business, the Company will pay severance to terminated employees related to programs that are ending who are no longer needed and cannot be repurposed to a new program. During the second quarter of 2020, a $2.9 million accrual was recorded with the expense included in Cost of services during the quarter ended June 30, 2020. During the third quarter, $0.5 million was paid and $0.1 million of additional expense was recorded. The accrual is expected to be paid or extinguished during the next six months and thus is classified as current liabilities within Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Impairment Losses During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the annual recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain customer engagement centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group’s carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company recognized impairment losses, net related to leasehold improvement assets and right of use lease assets of $0.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for the TTEC Digital segment. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized impairment losses related to leasehold improvement assets and right of use lease assets of zero and $2.6 million, respectively, across the TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage segments.
