Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded net restructuring and asset impairment charges from continuing operations of $25, which included approximately $40 of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 1,200 employees primarily in North America. These costs were offset by $15 of net reversals, primarily resulting from changes in estimated reserves from prior period initiatives.

Information related to restructuring program activity during the six months ended June 30, 2013 is outlined below:
