Note 3—Restructuring and Asset Impairments

We implement restructuring programs from time to time that are designed to improve operating effectiveness and lower costs. When we implement these programs, we incur various charges, including severance, asset impairments, and other employment related costs. During the first quarter of 2014, we implemented one such program, which involved the closure of two of our smaller plants, one located in North America and another one located in the United Kingdom (the “2014 Restructuring Plan”). The plant closures are expected to be completed by the end of our 2014 fiscal year and will result in cash charges associated with employee redundancy costs and relocation of assets, and non-cash charges related to asset impairments and accelerated depreciation on property, plant and equipment. In connection with the 2014 Restructuring Plan, we expect to incur total charges of approximately $5.0 million to $6.0 million. We also implemented a plan in June 2013, which consisted primarily of headcount reductions.

The following table summarizes restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013, respectively:
