Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes of Hudson Global, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") filed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of operating revenues and expenses. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge and judgments. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions between and among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation for discontinued operations. See Note 5 for further details regarding the discontinued operations reclassification. |

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | 9 Months Ended |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-05, "Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement" ("ASU 2015-05"), which provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new guidance does not change the accounting for a customer’s accounting for service contracts. ASU 2015-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not believe the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2015-05 on the Company's consolidated financial statements will be material. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs" ("ASU 2015-03"), which amends the current presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts, instead of as an asset. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2015-03 on the Company's consolidated financial statements will be material. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern" ("ASU 2014-15"), to provide guidance on management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. ASU 2014-15 also provides guidance for related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company's consolidated financial statements will be material. In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, "Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period" ("ASU 2014-12"). ASU 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting and could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation," as it relates to such awards. ASU 2014-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted using either of two methods: (i) prospective to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (ii) retrospective to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter, with the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-12 as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements. Accordingly, the standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not believe the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-12 on the Company's consolidated financial statements will be material. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In July 2015, the FASB amended the effective date of this ASU to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted only for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Accordingly, we plan to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and disclosures. In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”). ASU 2014-08 raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Accordingly, the standard was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2015. The Company has adopted ASU 2014-08. In the second and third quarter of 2015, the Company divested and exited certain businesses. Under the new guidance, the exited businesses did not reach the thresholds required to qualify as discontinued operations and, as a result, the operations remain within the Company's continuing operations for all periods presented. There are no other recently issued accounting pronouncements that have had, or that the Company believes will have, a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
DIVESTITURES | Hudson Information Technology (US) business (the "US IT business") On June 15, 2015, the Company completed the sale (the "US IT Business Sale") of substantially all of the assets (excluding working capital) of its US IT business to Mastech, Inc. (the "Purchaser"). The completion of the US IT Business Sale was effective June 14, 2015. The US IT Business Sale was pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2015, by and among the Company, Hudson Global Resources Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Purchaser. At the closing of the Sale, the Company received from the Purchaser pursuant to the Agreement the purchase price of $16,977 in cash. The US IT business pre-tax loss in accordance with ASC No. 205 "Reporting Discontinued Operations" ("ASC 205") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0 and $130 , respectively compared to a pre-tax profit of $711 and $1,889 for the same periods in 2014. On the US IT Business Sale, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $15,918 , net of closing and other direct transaction costs. Income tax on the gain was $11 . For U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the gain is offset in full by net operating loss carryforwards. For state and local income tax purposes, the gain is mostly offset by net operating loss carryforwards. As the divestiture did not meet the requirements for classification as discontinued operations, the gain on sale is presented as a component of income (loss) from operations. Netherlands business On April 7, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors authorized management to divest the Company's Netherlands business within its Hudson Europe Segment. As such, the Company determined the Netherlands business had met the criteria for assets held for sale in accordance ASC 205 as of April 9, 2015. On May 7, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement and completed the sale (the "Netherlands Business Sale") of its Netherlands business, to InterBalance Group B.V., effective April 30, 2015, in a management buyout for $9,029 which included cash retained of $1,135 . As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company recognized a gain of $2,841 on the divestiture of the Netherlands Business Sale, which included $2,799 of non-cash accumulated foreign currency translation losses. Income tax on the gain was $0 because the gain is exempt from Netherlands tax. As the divestiture did not meet the requirements for classification as discontinued operations, the gain on sale is presented as a component of income (loss) from operations. The Netherlands pre-tax profit in accordance with ASC 205 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0 and $373 , respectively, compared to a pre-tax profit of $328 and $1,138 for the same periods in 2014. Exit of Businesses in Central and Eastern Europe In February 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved the exit of operations in certain countries within Central and Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Czech Republic and Slovakia). During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company deemed the liquidation of its Central and Eastern Europe businesses to be substantially complete. As such, under ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters," for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company transferred $4 and $1,190 of accumulated foreign currency translation gains from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations within gain on sale and exit of businesses. Luxembourg In March 2015, the Company's management approved the exit of operations in Luxembourg. In the third quarter of 2015, the Company deemed the liquidation of its Luxembourg business to be substantially complete. As such, under ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters," for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company transferred $131 of accumulated foreign currency translation losses from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations within gain on on sale and exit of businesses. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Effective November 9, 2014, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of its Legal eDiscovery business in the U.S. and United Kingdom ("U.K.") to Document Technologies, LLC and DTI of London Limited. In addition, in 2014, the Company ceased operations in Sweden, which was included within the Hudson Europe segment.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | Hudson Information Technology (US) business (the "US IT business") On June 15, 2015, the Company completed the sale (the "US IT Business Sale") of substantially all of the assets (excluding working capital) of its US IT business to Mastech, Inc. (the "Purchaser"). The completion of the US IT Business Sale was effective June 14, 2015. The US IT Business Sale was pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2015, by and among the Company, Hudson Global Resources Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Purchaser. At the closing of the Sale, the Company received from the Purchaser pursuant to the Agreement the purchase price of $16,977 in cash. The US IT business pre-tax loss in accordance with ASC No. 205 "Reporting Discontinued Operations" ("ASC 205") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0 and $130 , respectively compared to a pre-tax profit of $711 and $1,889 for the same periods in 2014. On the US IT Business Sale, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $15,918 , net of closing and other direct transaction costs. Income tax on the gain was $11 . For U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the gain is offset in full by net operating loss carryforwards. For state and local income tax purposes, the gain is mostly offset by net operating loss carryforwards. As the divestiture did not meet the requirements for classification as discontinued operations, the gain on sale is presented as a component of income (loss) from operations. Netherlands business On April 7, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors authorized management to divest the Company's Netherlands business within its Hudson Europe Segment. As such, the Company determined the Netherlands business had met the criteria for assets held for sale in accordance ASC 205 as of April 9, 2015. On May 7, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement and completed the sale (the "Netherlands Business Sale") of its Netherlands business, to InterBalance Group B.V., effective April 30, 2015, in a management buyout for $9,029 which included cash retained of $1,135 . As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company recognized a gain of $2,841 on the divestiture of the Netherlands Business Sale, which included $2,799 of non-cash accumulated foreign currency translation losses. Income tax on the gain was $0 because the gain is exempt from Netherlands tax. As the divestiture did not meet the requirements for classification as discontinued operations, the gain on sale is presented as a component of income (loss) from operations. The Netherlands pre-tax profit in accordance with ASC 205 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0 and $373 , respectively, compared to a pre-tax profit of $328 and $1,138 for the same periods in 2014. Exit of Businesses in Central and Eastern Europe In February 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved the exit of operations in certain countries within Central and Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Czech Republic and Slovakia). During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company deemed the liquidation of its Central and Eastern Europe businesses to be substantially complete. As such, under ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters," for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company transferred $4 and $1,190 of accumulated foreign currency translation gains from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations within gain on sale and exit of businesses. Luxembourg In March 2015, the Company's management approved the exit of operations in Luxembourg. In the third quarter of 2015, the Company deemed the liquidation of its Luxembourg business to be substantially complete. As such, under ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters," for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 the Company transferred $131 of accumulated foreign currency translation losses from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations within gain on on sale and exit of businesses. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Effective November 9, 2014, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of its Legal eDiscovery business in the U.S. and United Kingdom ("U.K.") to Document Technologies, LLC and DTI of London Limited. In addition, in 2014, the Company ceased operations in Sweden, which was included within the Hudson Europe segment. The Company concluded that the divestiture of the Legal eDiscovery business and the cessation of operations in Sweden meet the criteria for discontinued operations set forth in ASC 205 . The Company reclassified its discontinued operations for all periods presented and has excluded the results of its discontinued operations from continuing operations and from segment results for all periods presented.

As such under ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters," for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company transferred the amount of the foreign entity's accumulated foreign currency translation gains and losses from accumulated other comprehensive income to income (loss) from discontinued operations. |

Other than reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses, there are no other direct costs associated with the Permanent Recruitment and Other category. Gross margin represents revenue less direct costs. The region where services are provided, the mix of contracting and permanent recruitment, and the functional nature of the staffing services provided can affect gross margin. The salaries, commissions, payroll taxes and employee benefits related to recruitment professionals are included under the caption "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). |

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Incentive Compensation Plan The Company maintains the Hudson Global, Inc. 2009 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan, as amended and restated April 26, 2012 (the “ISAP”), pursuant to which it can issue equity-based compensation incentives to eligible participants. The ISAP permits the granting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other types of equity-based awards. The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) will establish such conditions as it deems appropriate on the granting or vesting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other types of equity-based awards. Vesting accelerates upon the occurrence of events that involve or may result in a change of control. The Company grants primarily restricted stock to its employees, although the Company has recently also granted restricted stock units to certain of its employees. A restricted stock unit is equivalent to one share of the Company’s common stock and is payable only in common stock of the Company issued under the ISAP. The Compensation Committee administers the ISAP and may designate any of the following as a participant under the ISAP: any officer or other employee of the Company or its affiliates or individuals engaged to become an officer or employee; consultants or other independent contractors who provide services to the Company or its affiliates; and non-employee directors of the Company. As of September 30, 2015 , there were 1,041,534 shares of the Company’s common stock available for future issuance under the ISAP. The Company’s stock plan agreements provide that a change in control of the Company will occur if, among other things, individuals who were directors as of the date of the agreement and any new director whose appointment or election was approved or recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then in office who were either directors on the date of the agreement or whose appointment or election was previously so approved or recommended (each, a “continuing director”) cease to constitute a majority of the Company’s directors. A change in control occurred as of the Company's 2015 annual meeting of stockholders on June 15, 2015 under these agreements because continuing directors ceased to constitute a majority of the Company's directors. As a result, certain equity awards vested resulting in an accelerated stock-based compensation expense of $2,541 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 . A summary of the quantity and vesting conditions for stock-based awards granted to the Company's employees for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was as follows: Vesting conditions Number of Shares of Restricted Stock Granted Number of Restricted Stock Units Granted Total Performance and service conditions (1) 590,100 105,400 695,500 Vest 100% 18 months after the grant date with service conditions only 150,000 — 150,000 Vest 100% 18 months after the grant date with market and service conditions (2) 350,000 — 350,000 Immediately vested 400 100 500 Total shares of stock award granted 1,090,500 105,500 1,196,000 (1) As a result of the June 15, 2015 change in control event all unvested grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units became fully vested. (2) At the end of the Performance Period, the restricted stock subject to market condition may vest, in whole or in part, based on the Company's maximum 30-trading-day volume-weighted average common stock price during the period from May 18, 2015 to November 13, 2016 (the "Average Share Price") as compared to specified share price targets. If the Company's Average Share Price is less than $3.50, none of the restricted stock shall vest. Twenty-five percent of the restricted stock shall vest if the Company's Average Share Price equals $3.50. Fifty percent of the restricted stock shall vest if the Company's Average Share Price equals $4.25. Seventy-five percent of the restricted stock shall vest if the Company's Average Share Price equals $5.00. One hundred percent of the restricted stock shall vest if the Company's Average Share Price is greater than or equal to $6.00. For Average Share Price results between two share price targets, the percent of Restricted Stock vested shall be determined using linear interpolation. The Company also maintains the Director Deferred Share Plan (the "Director Plan") pursuant to which it can issue restricted stock units to its non-employee directors. A restricted stock unit is equivalent to one share of the Company’s common stock and is payable only in common stock issued under the ISAP upon a director ceasing service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. The restricted stock units vest immediately upon grant and are credited to each of the non-employee director's retirement accounts under the Director Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 , the Company granted 244,242 restricted stock units to its non-employee directors pursuant to the Director Plan. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company’s stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units was as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Stock options $ — $ — $ — $ 85 Restricted stock 138 93 2,998 567 Restricted stock units 65 12 963 255 Total $ 203 $ 105 $ 3,961 $ 907 Stock Options As of September 30, 2015 , the Company had no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding unvested stock options.

The 401(k) plan allows eligible employees to contribute up to 15% of their earnings to the 401(k) plan. The Company has the discretion to match employees’ contributions up to 3% of the employees' earnings through a contribution of the Company’s common stock to the 401(k) plan. Vesting of the Company’s contribution occurs over a five -year period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company’s current year expenses and contributions to satisfy the prior years’ employer-matching liability for the 401(k) plan were as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, ($ in thousands, except otherwise stated) 2015 2014 2015 2014 Expense recognized for the 401(k) plan $ 32 $ 112 $ 159 $ 431 Contributions to satisfy prior years' employer-matching liability Number of shares of the Company's common stock issued (in thousands) — — 116 118 Market value per share of the Company's common stock on contribution date (in dollars) $ — $ — $ 2.71 $ 3.65 Non-cash contribution made for employer matching liability $ — $ — $ 314 $ 430 |
INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES Under ASC 270, " Interim Reporting" , and ASC 740-270, " Income Taxes – Intra Period Tax Allocation" , the Company is required to adjust its effective tax rate for each quarter to be consistent with the estimated annual effective tax rate. Jurisdictions with a projected loss for the full year where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the calculation of the estimated annual effective tax rate. Applying the provisions of ASC 270 and ASC 740-270 could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections. Effective Tax Rate The benefit from income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $1,317 on a pre-tax income from continuing operations of $2,774 , compared to a provision for income taxes of $37 on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $12,210 for the same period in 2014 . The Company’s effective income tax rate was negative 47.5% and negative 0.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 , the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due to the utilization of US tax losses not previously recognized as tax benefits to offset gain on sale of business, foreign tax exemptions applicable to gains on sale and exit of businesses, the release of deferred tax valuation allowance in China as a result of improved profitability in 2014 and 2015, the inability of the Company to recognize tax benefits on losses until positive earnings are achieved in the U.S. and certain other foreign jurisdictions, non-deductible expenses, and variations from the U.S. tax rate in foreign jurisdictions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the Company's inability to benefit from losses in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. Uncertain Tax Positions As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had $2,330 and $2,397 , respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, which if recognized in the future, would lower the Company’s annual effective income tax rate. Accrued interest and penalties were $555 and $554 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Estimated interest and penalties are classified as part of the provision for income taxes in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and totaled to a provision of $53 and a benefit of $165 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. In many cases, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. Tax years with net operating losses ("NOLs") remain open until such losses expire or until the statutes of limitations for those years when the NOLs are used expire. As of September 30, 2015 , the Company's open tax years, which remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities, were principally as follows: Year Earliest tax years which remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities: U.S. Federal 2012 Majority of U.S. state and local jurisdictions 2011 United Kingdom 2013 Australia 2011 Majority of other non-U.S. jurisdictions 2009 The Company believes that its tax reserves are adequate for all years that remain subject to examination or are currently under examination. Based on information available as of September 30, 2015 , it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease in the range of $300 to $600 over the next 12 months as a result of projected resolutions of global tax examinations and controversies and potential expirations of the applicable statutes of limitations. |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE | 9 Months Ended |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE | EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. When the effects are not anti-dilutive, diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding and the impact of all dilutive potential common shares, primarily stock options "in-the-money", unvested restricted stock and unvested restricted stock units. The dilutive impact of stock options, unvested restricted stock, and unvested restricted stock units is determined by applying the “treasury stock” method. Performance-based restricted stock awards are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share only to the extent that the underlying performance conditions: (i) are satisfied prior to the end of the reporting period; or (ii) would be satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the related performance period and the result would be dilutive under the treasury stock method. Stock awards subject to vesting or exercisability based on the achievement of market conditions are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share only when the market conditions are met. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Earnings (loss) per share ("EPS"): EPS - basic and diluted: Income (loss) from continuing operations $ (0.06 ) $ (0.14 ) $ 0.12 $ (0.38 ) Income (loss) from discontinued operations — (0.07 ) 0.03 (0.11 ) Net income (loss) $ (0.06 ) $ (0.21 ) $ 0.15 $ (0.49 ) EPS numerator - basic and diluted: Income (loss) from continuing operations $ (2,029 ) $ (4,571 ) $ 4,091 $ (12,247 ) Income (loss) from discontinued operations (55 ) (2,448 ) 864 (3,690 ) Net income (loss) $ (2,084 ) $ (7,019 ) $ 4,955 $ (15,937 ) EPS denominator (in thousands): Weighted average common stock outstanding - basic 34,687 32,910 33,784 32,769 Common stock equivalents: stock options and other stock-based awards (a) — — 11 — Weighted average number of common stock outstanding - diluted 34,687 32,910 33,795 32,769 (a) For the periods in which net losses are presented, the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding did not differ from the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding because the effects of any potential common stock equivalents (see Note 7 for further details on outstanding stock options, unvested restricted stock units and unvested restricted stock) were anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the calculation of the denominator of dilutive earnings per share. The weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 did not include the effect of the following potentially outstanding shares of common stock because the effect would have been anti-dilutive: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Unvested restricted stock 150,000 383,231 — 383,231 Unvested restricted stock units — 35,946 — 35,946 Stock options 623,500 756,800 623,500 756,800 Total 773,500 1,175,977 623,500 1,175,977 |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Consulting, Employment and Non-compete Agreements The Company has entered into various consulting and employment agreements with certain key members of management. These agreements generally (i) are one year in length, (ii) contain restrictive covenants, (iii) under certain circumstances, provide for compensation and, subject to providing the Company with a release, severance payments, and (iv) are automatically renewed annually unless either party gives sufficient notice of termination. Litigation and Complaints The Company is subject, from time to time, to various claims, lawsuits, contracts disputes and other complaints from, for example, clients, candidates, suppliers, landlords for both leased and subleased properties, former and current employees, and regulators or tax authorities arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company routinely monitors claims such as these, and records provisions for losses when the claim becomes probable and the amount due is estimable. Although the outcome of these claims cannot be determined, the Company believes that the final resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. For matters that have reached the threshold of probable and estimable, the Company has established reserves for legal, regulatory and other contingent liabilities. The Company’s reserves were $156 and $376 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Potential Costs Associated with Termination The Company has incurred compensation and benefits obligations to its former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Manuel Marquez, under his employment agreement in connection with the Company providing Mr. Marquez notice of non-renewal of his employment agreement, which is treated as a termination of his employment without cause. The Company has accrued $665 as of September 30, 2015 in connection with compensation and benefits Mr. Marquez is entitled to upon a termination without cause. Mr. Marquez does not agree with this treatment of compensation and benefits under his employment agreement and, on August 13, 2015, filed an arbitration claim against the Company for additional amounts of up to approximately $2,000 . The Company does not agree with Mr. Marquez’s interpretation of the employment agreement and intends to vigorously defend against such claim for additional amounts. Asset Retirement Obligations The Company has certain asset retirement obligations that are primarily the result of legal obligations for the removal of leasehold improvements and restoration of premises to their original condition upon termination of leases. The asset retirement obligations are included under the caption “Other non-current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s asset retirement obligations that are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows: September 30, December 31, Total asset retirement obligations $ 2,165 $ 2,461 |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC DATA | SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC DATA Segment Reporting The Company operates in three reportable segments: the Hudson regional businesses of Hudson Americas, Hudson Asia Pacific, and Hudson Europe. Corporate expenses are reported separately from the three reportable segments and pertain to certain functions, such as executive management, corporate governance, human resources, accounting, administration, tax and treasury, the majority of which are attributable to and have been allocated to the reportable segments. Segment information is presented in accordance with ASC 280, “ Segments Reporting. ” This standard is based on a management approach that requires segmentation based upon the Company’s internal organization and disclosure of revenue and certain expenses based upon internal accounting methods.

The NAB Facility Agreement provides three tranches: (1) an invoice discounting facility of up to $17,545 (AUD 25,000 ) ("Tranche A") for an Australian subsidiary of the Company, the availability under which facility is based on an agreed percentage of eligible accounts receivable of which a maximum of $2,807 (AUD 4,000 ) may be used to support working capital requirements of the Company’s operations in China, Hong Kong and Singapore; (2) an invoice discounting facility of up to $3,199 (NZD 5,000 ) ("Tranche B") for a New Zealand subsidiary of the Company, the availability under which facility is based on an agreed percentage of eligible accounts receivable; and (3) a financial guarantee facility of up to $2,105 (AUD 3,000 ) ("Tranche C") which may be split between the Australian and New Zealand subsidiaries. Tranche A and Tranche B do not have a stated maturity date and can be terminated upon 90 days written notice. Tranche C has a three year stated maturity date. Borrowings under Tranche A may be made with an interest rate based on the Australian Lending Indicator Rate (as defined in the NAB Facility Agreement) plus a margin of 1.50% per annum. Borrowings under Tranche B may be made with an interest rate based on the New Zealand Lending Indicator Rate (as defined in the NAB Facility Agreement). Each of Tranche A and Tranche B requires the payment of an annual minimum purchase charge of $75 and $15 , respectively. Borrowings under Tranche C may be made incurring a fee equal to 1.50% per annum of the face value of the financial guarantee requested plus 0.30% per annum of the Tranche C facility. Amounts owing under the NAB Facility Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Australian subsidiary and the New Zealand subsidiary (collectively, the "Obligors"). The NAB Facility Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants applicable to the Obligors, including: (a) a requirement that the Obligors maintain (1) a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the NAB Facility Agreement) of 1.25 x initially and 1.5 x at all other testing dates thereafter; and (2) a minimum Receivables Ratio (as defined by the NAB Facility Agreement) of 1.20 x. |
