	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	NATURE OF OPERATIONS
	ManpowerGroup Inc. is a world leader in the innovative workforce solutions and services industry. Our global network of over 3,100 offices in 80 countries and territories allows us to meet the needs of our global, multinational and local clients across all major industry segments. Our largest operations, based on revenues, are located in the United States, France, Italy and the United Kingdom. We specialize in permanent, temporary and contract recruitment and assessment; training and development; outsourcing; career management and workforce consulting services. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprise a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole.
	USE OF ESTIMATES
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
	BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
	The Consolidated Financial Statements include our operating results and the operating results of all of our subsidiaries. For subsidiaries in which we have an ownership interest of 50% or less, but more than 20%, the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect our ownership share of those earnings using the equity method of accounting. These investments, as well as certain other relationships, are also evaluated for consolidation under the accounting guidance on consolidation of variable interest entities. These investments were $140.2 and $85.3 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 are $74.4 and $67.2, respectively, of unremitted earnings from investments accounted for using the equity method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	During the third quarter of 2013, we determined that the carrying amount of the equity interest in our Swiss franchise was understated by $37.7 due to an error in recording the currency effect on the investment. We believe that the error was not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 or the prior period consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we recorded an adjustment to increase other assets and accumulated other comprehensive income by $37.7 on the Consolidated Balance Sheet effective September 30, 2013 and the impact is included in foreign currency translation adjustments on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the year ended December 31, 2013. There was no impact to the Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for any period presented.
	REVENUES AND RECEIVABLES
	We generate revenues from sales of services by our company-owned branch operations and from fees earned on sales of services by our franchise operations. Revenues are recognized as services are performed. The majority of our revenues are generated by our recruitment business, where billings are generally negotiated and invoiced on a per-hour basis. Accordingly, as contingent workers are placed, we record revenues based on the hours worked. Permanent recruitment revenues are recorded as placements are made. Provisions for sales allowances, based on historical experience, are recognized at the time the related sale is recognized.
	Our franchise agreements generally state that franchise fees are calculated based on a percentage of revenues. We record franchise fee revenues monthly based on the amounts due under the franchise agreements for that month. Franchise fees, which are included in revenues from services, were $24.4, $23.9 and $25.2 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	In our outplacement business, we recognize revenues from individual programs and for large projects over the estimated period in which services are rendered to candidates. In our consulting business, revenues are recognized upon the performance of the service under the consulting service contract. For performance-based contracts, we defer recognizing revenues until the performance criteria have been met.
	The amounts billed for outplacement, consulting services and performance-based contracts in excess of the amount recognized as revenues are recorded as deferred revenue and included in accrued liabilities for the current portion and other long-term liabilities for the long-term portion in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the current portion of deferred revenue was $48.5 and $55.7, respectively, and the long-term portion of deferred revenue was $10.0 and $17.1, respectively.
	We record revenues from sales of services and the related direct costs in accordance with the accounting guidance on reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent. In situations where we act as a principal in the transaction, we report gross revenues and cost of services. When we act as an agent, we report the revenues on a net basis. Amounts billed to clients for out-of-pocket or other cost reimbursements are included in revenues from services, and the related costs are included in cost of services.
	ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
	We have an allowance for doubtful accounts recorded as an estimate of the accounts receivable balance that may not be collected. This allowance is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration for historical write-off experience, the current aging of receivables and a specific review for potential bad debts. Items that affect this balance mainly include bad debt expense and the write-off of accounts receivable balances.
	Bad debt expense is recorded as selling and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and was $24.1, $29.2 and $25.9 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Factors that would cause this provision to increase primarily relate to increased bankruptcies by our clients and other difficulties collecting amounts billed. On the other hand, an improved write-off experience and aging of receivables would result in a decrease to the provision. Write-offs were $26.4, $23.2 and $25.0 for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	ADVERTISING COSTS
	We expense production costs of advertising as they are incurred. Advertising expenses were $22.3, $27.2 and $34.0 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	RESTRUCTURING COSTS
	We recorded net restructuring costs of $89.4, $48.8 and $23.1 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in selling and administrative expenses, primarily related to severances and office closures and consolidations in multiple countries and territories. These expenses are net of reversals of previous accruals resulting mainly from larger-than-estimated cost savings from subleasing and lease buyouts. During 2013, we made payments of $82.4 out of our restructuring reserve. We expect a majority of the remaining $48.4 reserve will be paid or utilized in 2014. Changes in the restructuring liability balances for each reportable segment and Corporate are as follows:

In 2013, Italy recorded severance costs of $3.4 and paid out $3.4, leaving a $0.9 liability as of December 31, 2013.
	INCOME TAXES
	We account for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance on income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets for which utilization of the asset is not likely.
	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	The assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:
			Fair Value Measurements Using													Fair Value Measurements Using

	We determine the fair value of our deferred compensation plan assets, comprised of publicly traded securities, by using market quotes as of the last day of the period. The fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts is measured at the value from either directly or indirectly observable third parties.
	The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of our variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value. The fair value of the euro-denominated notes, as observable at commonly quoted intervals (Level 2 inputs), was $520.1 and $778.8 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $480.9 and $725.5, respectively.
	GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
	We have goodwill, finite-lived intangible assets and indefinite-lived intangible assets as follows:

Amortization expense related to intangibles was $34.1, $36.7 and $38.9 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Amortization expense expected in each of the next five years related to acquisitions completed as of December 31, 2013 is as follows: 2014 — $30.3, 2015 — $27.0, 2016 — $23.9, 2017 — $20.3 and 2018 — $18.0. The weighted-average useful lives of the technology, franchise agreements, customer relationships and other are 5, 10, 14 and 3 years, respectively. The tradenames have been assigned an indefinite life based on our expectation of renewing the tradenames, as required, without material modifications and at a minimal cost, and our expectation of positive cash flows beyond the foreseeable future. The reacquired franchise rights result from our franchise acquisitions in the United States and Canada completed prior to 2009.
In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets at our unit of account level during the third quarter, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value.
We performed our annual impairment test of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the third quarterof 2013, 2012 and 2011, and there was no impairment of our goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible as a result of ourannual tests.
We utilize a two-step method for determining goodwill impairment. In the first step, we determined the fair value of each reporting unit, generally by utilizing an income approach derived from a discounted cash flow methodology. For certain of our reporting units, a combination of the income approach (weighted 75%) and the market approach (weighted 25%) derived from comparable public companies was utilized. The income approach is developed from management’s forecasted cash flow data. Therefore, it represents an indication of fair market value reflecting management’s internal outlook for the reporting unit. The market approach utilizes the Guideline Public Company Method to quantify the respective reporting unit’s fair value based on revenues and earnings multiples realized by similar public companies. The market approach is more volatile as an indicator of fair value as compared to the income approach. We believe that each approach has its merits. However in the instances where we have utilized both approaches, we have weighted the income approach more heavily than the market approach because we believe that management’s assumptions generally provide greater insight into the reporting unit’s fair value.
Significant assumptions used in our goodwill impairment tests during 2013, 2012 and 2011 included: expected revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, working capital levels, discount rates ranging from 11.7% to 16.5% for 2013, and a terminal value multiple. The expected future revenue growth rates and the expected operating unit profit margins were determined after considering our historical revenue growth rates and operating unit profit margins, our assessment of future market potential, and our expectations of future business performance, including the effects of our simplification and recalibration plan.
If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, we are required to perform a second step. In the second step, we allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, in a “hypothetical” calculation to determine the implied fair value of the goodwill. The impairment charge, if any, is measured as the difference between the implied fair value of the goodwill and its carrying value.
Under the current accounting guidance, we are also required to test our indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the intangible asset’s fair value is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
We account for our marketable security investments under the accounting guidance on certain investments in debt and equity securities, and have determined that all such investments are classified as available-for-sale. Accordingly, unrealized gains and unrealized losses that are determined to be temporary, net of related income taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses, and unrealized losses determined to be other-than-temporary, are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We had no available-for-sale investments as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
We hold a 49% interest in our Swiss franchise, which maintained an investment portfolio with a market value of $204.2 and $192.5 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This portfolio is comprised of a wide variety of European and United States debt and equity securities as well as various professionally-managed funds, all of which are classified as available-for-sale. Our share of net realized gains and losses, and declines in value determined to be other-than-temporary, are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, realized gains totaled $3.6, $0.1 and $0.1, respectively, and realized losses totaled $1.4, $0.2 and $0.3, respectively. Our share of net unrealized gains and unrealized losses that are determined to be temporary related to these investments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, with the offsetting amount increasing or decreasing our investment in the franchise.
CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE FOR INTERNAL USE
We capitalize purchased software as well as internally developed software. Internal software development costs are capitalized from the time the internal use software is considered probable of completion until the software is ready for use. Business analysis, system evaluation, selection and software maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software which ranges from 3 to 10 years. The net capitalized software balance of $4.6 and $10.6 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amortization expense related to the capitalized software costs was $5.6, $7.3 and $7.8 for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
A summary of property and equipment as of December 31 is as follows:
			2013				2012
Land		$	6.2			$	6.8
Buildings			20.8				21
Furniture, fixtures, and autos			194.1				198.4
Computer equipment			168.1				169.2
Leasehold improvements			317				308.7
Property and equipment		$	706.2			$	704.1
Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using primarily the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: buildings — up to 40 years; furniture, fixtures, autos and computer equipment — 2 to 16 years; leasehold improvements — lesser of life of asset or expected lease term. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized whereas expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to income as incurred. Upon sale or disposition of property and equipment, the difference between the unamortized cost and the proceeds is recorded as either a gain or a loss and is included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment in accordance with the provisions of the accounting guidance on the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We account for our derivative instruments in accordance with the accounting guidance on derivative instruments and hedging activities. Derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of the changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations when the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portions of the changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The financial statements of our non-United States subsidiaries have been translated in accordance with the accounting guidance on foreign currency translation. Under the accounting guidance, asset and liability accounts are translated at the current exchange rate and income statement items are translated at the weighted-average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is included in shareholders’ equity.
Our euro-denominated notes are accounted for as a hedge of our net investment in our subsidiaries with a euro-functional currency. Since our net investment in these subsidiaries exceeds the amount of the related borrowings, all translation gains or losses related to these borrowings are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
In December 2012 and November 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 8.0 million and 3.0 million shares of our common stock, respectively. Share repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, forward repurchase agreements or similar facilities. No repurchases were made in 2013. In 2012, we repurchased a total of 3.6 million shares, comprised of 0.6 million shares under a previous authorization and 3.0 million shares under the 2011 authorization, at a total cost of $138.2. In 2011, we repurchased a total of 2.6 million shares under previous authorizations at a total cost of $104.5. As of December 31, 2013, there were 8.0 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2012 authorization and no shares remaining under any previous authorizations.
During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Board of Directors declared total cash dividends of $0.92, $0.86 and $0.80 per share, respectively, resulting in total dividend payments of $72.0, $67.8 and $65.1, respectively.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
PAYROLL TAX CREDIT
In January 2013, the French government passed legislation, Credit d’Impôt pour la Compétitivité et l’Emploi (“CICE”), effective January 1, 2013, that provides payroll tax credits based on a percentage of wages paid to employees receiving less than two-and-a-half times the French minimum wage. The payroll tax credit is equal to 4% of eligible wages in 2013 and increases to 6% of eligible wages starting in 2014. The CICE payroll tax credit is accounted for as a reduction of our cost of services in the period earned.
The payroll tax credit is creditable against our current income tax payable, with any remaining amount being paid after three years. Given the amount of our current income taxes payable, we would generally receive the vast majority of these payroll tax credits after the three-year period. However, we entered into an agreement in December 2013 to sell a portion of the credits earned in 2013 for net proceeds of $104.0. We derecognized these receivables upon sale date as the terms of the agreement are such that the transaction qualifies for sale treatment according to the accounting guidance on the transfer and servicing of assets. The discount on the sale of this receivable was recorded as a reduction of the 2013 payroll tax credits in cost of services.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on cumulative translation adjustment. The new guidance requires that currency translation adjustments should be released into net income only if the sale of a foreign subsidiary results in the complete liquidation of the entity. For an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, a pro rata portion of the currency translation adjustments should be released into net income upon a partial sale of such an equity method investment. The new guidance also clarifies that the sale of an investment in a foreign entity includes both (1) events that result in the loss of a controlling financial interest in the foreign entity and (2) events that result in an acquirer’s obtaining control of an acquiree in which it held an equity interest immediately before the acquisition date, otherwise known as a “step acquisition.” Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income upon the occurrence of those events. The guidance is effective for us in 2014. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In July 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit. The new guidance requires that, in certain cases, an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to the deferred tax asset when there is an existing net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or an existing tax credit carryforward. The guidance is effective for us in 2014. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

	Acquisitions
	From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. The total cash consideration paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $46.3, $49.0 and $49.0, respectively. Goodwill and intangible assets resulting from the 2013 acquisitions, the majority of which took place in the United Kingdom and Norway, were $52.2 and $10.1, respectively, as of December 31, 2013. Goodwill and intangible assets resulting from the 2012 acquisitions were $46.2 and $7.6 as of December 31, 2012, respectively.
	On April 16, 2012, we acquired Damilo Group (“Damilo”), a French firm specializing in IT design solutions, for total consideration, net of cash acquired, of €21.2 ($28.0). Goodwill arising from this transaction was €30.8 ($40.6). The assumed liabilities and acquired assets, net of goodwill, related intangible assets and cash arising from the transaction were €33.8 ($44.6) and €17.9 ($23.6), respectively. The related intangible assets were €6.3 ($8.0), €5.8 ($7.6) and €5.0 ($6.8) as of April 16, 2012, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

	Share-Based Compensation Plans
	We account for share-based payments according to the accounting guidance on share-based payments. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we recognized approximately $31.5, $30.0 and $31.4, respectively, in share-based compensation expense related to stock options, deferred stock, restricted stock and performance share units, all of which is recorded in selling and administrative expenses. The total income tax benefit recognized related to share-based compensation during 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $21.2, $2.4 and $3.0, respectively. Consideration received from share-based awards for 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $101.0, $6.0 and $31.8, respectively. The excess income tax benefit/(deficit) recognized related to share-based compensation awards, which is recorded in capital in excess of par value, for 2013, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $8.4, $(2.1) and $3.1, respectively. We recognize compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award.
	STOCK OPTIONS
	Until May 3, 2011, all share-based compensation was granted under the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan of Manpower Inc. (“2003 Plan”). Following this date, all share-based compensation has been granted under the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan of Manpower Inc. (“2011 Plan”). Options and stock appreciation rights are granted at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Generally, options are granted with a ratable vesting period of up to four years and expire ten years from date of grant. No stock appreciation rights had been granted or were outstanding as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.

	We have recognized expense of $7.5, $9.4 and $12.1 related to stock options for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The total fair value of options vested during the same periods was $9.0, $11.4 and $14.3, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, total unrecognized compensation cost was approximately $6.5, net of estimated forfeitures, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.3 years.
	We estimated the fair value of each stock option on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions:
	Year Ended December 31			2013			2012			2011
	Average risk-free interest rate			1.1	%		1.1	%		2.6	%
	Expected dividend yield			1.7	%		1.8	%		1.1	%
	Expected volatility			42	%		44	%		41	%
	Expected term (years)			5.9			5.9			5.9
	The average risk-free interest rate is based on the five-year United States Treasury security rate in effect as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield is based on the expected annual dividend as a percentage of the market value of our common stock as of the grant date. We determined expected volatility using a weighted average of daily historical volatility (weighted 75%) of our stock price over the past five years and implied volatility (weighted 25%) based upon exchange traded options for our common stock. We believe that a blend of historical volatility and implied volatility better reflects future market conditions and better indicates expected volatility than considering purely historical volatility. We determined the expected term of the stock options using historical data. The weighted-average grant-date fair value per option granted during the year was $17.99, $15.88 and $25.21 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	DEFERRED STOCK
	Our non-employee directors may elect to receive deferred stock in lieu of part or all of their annual cash retainer otherwise payable to them. The number of shares of deferred stock is determined pursuant to a formula set forth in the terms and conditions adopted under the 2003 Plan and subsequently under the 2011 Plan and the deferred stock is settled in shares of common stock according to these terms and conditions. As of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, there were 31,733, 28,400 and 23,566, respectively, shares of deferred stock awarded under this arrangement, all of which are vested.
	Non-employee directors also receive an annual grant of deferred stock (or restricted stock, if they so elect) as additional compensation for board service. The award vests in one year in equal quarterly installments and the vested portion of the deferred stock is settled in shares of common stock either upon a director’s termination of service or three years after the date of grant (which may in most cases be extended at the directors’ election) in accordance with the terms and conditions under the 2003 Plan and the 2011 Plan. As of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, there were 14,844, 14,685 and 8,732, respectively, shares of deferred stock and 14,844, 20,559 and 9,978, respectively, shares of restricted stock granted under this arrangement, all of which are vested. We recognized expense of $0.9, $0.8 and $0.8 related to deferred stock in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	RESTRICTED STOCK
	We grant restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards to certain employees and to non-employee directors who may elect to receive restricted stock rather than deferred stock as described above. Restrictions lapse over periods ranging up to six years, and in some cases upon retirement. We value restricted stock awards at the closing market value of our common stock on the date of grant.
	A summary of restricted stock activity is as follows:
				Shares (000)			Wtd. Avg.			Wtd. Avg			Aggregate
							Price Per Share			Remaining			Intrinsic Value

Unvested, December 31, 2013			627		$	54			1.3		$	54
During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we recognized $9.8, $10.0 and $7.0, respectively, of expense related to restricted stock awards. As of December 31, 2013, there was approximately $10.8 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.0 years.
PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS
Our 2003 Plan and our 2011 Plan allow us to grant performance share units. We grant performance share units with a performance period ranging from one to three years. Vesting of units occurs at the end of the performance period or after a subsequent holding period, except in the case of termination of employment where the units are forfeited immediately. Upon retirement, a prorated number of units vest depending on the period worked from the grant date to retirement date. In the case of death or disability, the units immediately vest at the Target Award level if the death or disability date is during the performance period, or at the level determined by the performance criteria met during the performance period if the death or disability occurs during the subsequent holding period. The units are settled in shares of our common stock. A payout multiple is applied to the units awarded based on the performance criteria determined by the Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors at the time of grant.
In the event the performance criteria exceed the target performance level, an additional number of shares, up to the Outstanding Award level, may be granted. In the event the performance criteria falls below the target performance level, a reduced number of shares, as low as the Threshold Award level, may be granted. If the performance criteria falls below the threshold performance level, no shares will be granted.

The performance period is 2013 through 2015, with a vesting date of July 1, 2016. The award’s current performance level is at Target.
We recognize and adjust compensation expense based on the likelihood of the performance criteria specified in the award being achieved. The compensation expense is recognized over the performance and holding periods and is recorded in selling and administrative expenses. We have recognized total compensation expense of $13.1, $9.6 and $11.3 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to the performance share units.
OTHER STOCK PLANS
Under the 1990 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, designated employees meeting certain service requirements may purchase shares of our common stock through payroll deductions. These shares may be purchased at their fair market value on a monthly basis. The current plan is non-compensatory according to the accounting guidance on share-based payments.
We also maintain the Savings Related Share Option Scheme for United Kingdom employees with at least one year of service. The employees are offered the opportunity to obtain an option for a specified number of shares of common stock at not less than 85% of its market value on the day prior to the offer to participate in the plan. Options vest after either three, five or seven years, but may lapse earlier. Funds used to purchase the shares are accumulated through specified payroll deductions over a 60-month period. We recognized an expense of $0.2 for shares purchased under the plan in 2013, 2012 and 2011.

	Included in non-United States tax rate difference is a $5.9 benefit related to the French CICE payroll tax credit because the CICE credit is tax-free for French tax purposes. The tax benefit related to the CICE credit in excess of the $5.9 is offset by a related increase in United States tax expense. For United States tax purposes, certain French earnings impacted by the CICE credit are treated as a deemed dividend resulting in an immediate United States tax expense.
	Deferred income taxes are recorded on temporary differences at the tax rate expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. Temporary differences, which gave rise to the deferred taxes, were as follows:

	We have United States Federal and non-United States net operating loss carryforwards and United States state net operating loss carryforwards totaling $498.9 and $358.8, respectively, as of December 31, 2013. The net operating loss carryforwards expire as follows:
		United States Federal				United States —

	2014	$	5.8		$	7.7

	No expirations		337.4			—
	Total net operating loss carryforwards	$	498.9		$	358.8
We have recorded a deferred tax asset of $151.0 as of December 31, 2013, for the benefit of these net operating losses. Realization of this asset is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the loss carryforwards. A related valuation allowance of $113.4 has been recorded as of December 31, 2013, as management believes that realization of certain net operating loss carryforwards is unlikely.
Pretax income of non-United States operations was $298.1, $234.6 and $395.5 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We have not provided United States income taxes or non-United States withholding taxes on $737.6 of unremitted earnings of non-United States subsidiaries that are considered to be permanently invested. Deferred taxes are provided on $264.3 of unremitted earnings of non-United States subsidiaries that may be remitted to the United States. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we have recorded a deferred tax liability of $16.7 and $15.7, respectively, related to these non-United States earnings that may be remitted.
As of December 31, 2013, we have gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $32.3. We have related tax benefits of $1.9, and the net amount of $30.4 would favorably affectthe effective tax rate if recognized. We do not expect our unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next12 months.
As of December 31, 2012, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $28.5. We had related tax benefits of $2.5 for a net amount of $26.0.
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. We accrued net interest and penalties of $6.3, $0.1 and $0.6 during 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The following table summarizes the activity related to our unrecognized tax benefits during 2013, 2012 and 2011:
	2013			2012			2011

Balance, end of year	$	32.3		$	28.5		$	27
We conduct business globally in 80 countries and territories. We are routinely audited by the tax authorities of the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Generally, the tax years that could be subject to examination are 2009 through 2012 for our major operations in Germany, Italy, France, Japan, United States and United Kingdom. As of December 31, 2013, we are subject to tax audits in France, Germany, Denmark, Austria, Italy, Norway and Spain. We believe that the resolution of these audits will not have a material impact on earnings.

	Information concerning short-term borrowings is as follows:

	Short-term borrowings	$	34.2		$	43.3
	Weighted-average interest rates		12.5	%		9.1	%
	We maintain separate bank credit lines with financial institutions to meet working capital needs of our subsidiary operations. As of December 31, 2013, such uncommitted credit lines totaled $376.9, of which $339.9 was unused. Due to limitations on subsidiary borrowings in our revolving credit agreement, additional subsidiary borrowings of $263.0 could be made under these facilities as of December 31, 2013.
	A summary of long-term debt is as follows:
	31-Dec		2013			2012
	Euro-denominated notes:
	€350 due June 2018	$	480.9		$	461.7

	Long-term debt	$	481.9		$	462.1
	EURO NOTES
	On June 14, 2013, upon maturity, we paid off our €200.0 aggregate principal amount of 4.75% notes with available cash.
	On June 22, 2012, we offered and sold €350.0 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.50% notes due June 22, 2018 (the “€350.0 Notes”). The net proceeds from the €350.0 Notes of €348.7 were used to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility that were drawn in May 2012 to repay our €300.0 notes that matured on June 1, 2012 and for general corporate purposes. The €350.0 Notes were issued at a price of 99.974% to yield an effective interest rate of 4.505%. Interest on the €350.0 Notes is payable in arrears on June 22 of each year. The €350.0 Notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank equally with all of our existing and future senior unsecured debt and other liabilities. We may redeem the €350.0 Notes, in whole but not in part, at our option at any time for a redemption price determined in accordance with the term of the €350.0 Notes. The notes also contain certain customary non-financial restrictive covenants and eventsof default.
	When the €350.0 Notes mature, we plan to repay the amount with available cash, borrowings under our $600.0 revolving credit facility or a new borrowing. The credit terms, including interest rate and facility fees, of any replacement borrowings will be dependent upon the condition of the credit markets at that time. We currently do not anticipate any problems accessing the credit markets should we decide to replace the €350.0 Notes.
	The €350.0 Notes have been designated as a hedge of our net investment in subsidiaries with a euro-functional currency. Since our net investment in these subsidiaries exceeds the respective amount of the designated borrowings, translation gains or losses related to these borrowings are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. (See the Significant Matters Affecting Results of Operations section of Management’s Discussion & Analysis and Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.)
	REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
	On October 15, 2013, we amended and restated our Five-Year Credit Agreement (“the Amended Agreement”) with a syndicate of commercial banks to, among other things: decrease the revolving commitments from $800.0 to $600.0, revise the termination date of the facility from October 5, 2016 to October 15, 2018, and permit the termination date of the facility to be extended by an additional year twice during the term of the Amended Agreement. The remaining material terms and conditions of the Amended Agreement are substantially similar to the material terms and conditions of our Five-Year Credit Agreement dated October 5, 2011.
	The Amended Agreement allows for borrowing in various currencies and up to $150.0 may be used for the issuanceof stand-by letters of credit. We had no borrowings under this facility as of both December 31, 2013 and 2012. Outstanding letters of credit issued under the Amended Agreement totaled $0.9 as of both December 31, 2013 and 2012. Additional borrowings of $599.1 and $799.1 were available to us under the facility as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
	Under the Amended Agreement, a credit ratings-based pricing grid determines the facility fee and the credit spread that we add to the applicable interbank borrowing rate on all borrowings. At our current credit rating, the annual facility fee is 22.5 bps paid on the entire $600.0 facility and the credit spread is 127.5 bps on any borrowings. Any downgrades from the credit agencies would unfavorably impact our facility fees and result in additional costs ranging from approximately $0.2 to $0.3 annually.
	The Amended Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants pertaining to our management and operations, including limitations on the amount of subsidiary debt that we may incur and limitations on our ability to pledge assets, as well as financial covenants requiring, among other things, that we comply with a leverage ratio (net Debt-to-EBITDA) of not greater than 3.5 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.5 to 1. The Amended Agreement also contains customary events of default, including, among others, payment defaults, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, bankruptcy or involuntary proceedings, certain monetary and non-monetary judgments, change of control and customary ERISA defaults.
	As defined in the Amended Agreement, we had a net Debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.28 to 1 (compared to the maximum allowable ratio of 3.5 to 1) and a Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 3.29 to 1 (compared to the minimum required ratio of 1.5 to 1) as of December 31, 2013.
	DEBT MATURITIES
	The maturities of long-term debt payable within each of the four years subsequent to December 31, 2014 are as follows: 2015 — $1.0, 2016 — $0.0, 2017 — $0.0, 2018 — $480.9.

Effective January 1, 2013, we amended a defined benefit plan in the Netherlands. The defined benefit plan was frozen, and the participants were transitioned to a defined contribution plan, resulting in a curtailment gain of $2.3.
Effective July 1, 2011, we completed a voluntary transition of our Norwegian employees from defined pension plans to defined contribution plans, resulting in a curtailment and settlement gain of $1.0.
The estimated net loss and prior service cost for the defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost during 2014 are $3.3 and $0.5, respectively.
The weighted-average assumptions used in the measurement of the benefit obligation were as follows:
		United States Plans						Non-United States Plans
Year Ended December 31			2013			2012			2013			2012
Discount rate			4.6	%		3.7	%		4.1	%		4.2	%

The weighted-average assumptions used in the measurement of the net periodic benefit cost were as follows:
		United States Plans									Non-United States Plans
Year Ended December 31			2013			2012			2011			2013			2012			2011
Discount rate			3.7	%		4.6	%		5.1	%		4.2	%		4.7	%		5.1	%
Expected long-term return on plan assets			6	%		6.3	%		7	%		4	%		4.7	%		5.3	%
Rate of compensation increase			3	%		3	%		4	%		3.6	%		4	%		4.3	%
We determine our assumption for the discount rate based on an index of high-quality corporate bond yields and matched-funding yield curve analysis as of the end of each fiscal year.
Our overall expected long-term rate of return on United States plan assets is 6.0%, while our overall expected long-term rate of return on our non-United States plans varies by country and ranges from 2.3% to 4.7%. For a majority of our plans, a building block approach has been employed to establish this return. Historical markets are studied and long-term historical relationships between equity securities and fixed income instruments are preserved consistent with the widely accepted capital market principle that assets with higher volatility generate a greater return over time. Current market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated before long-term capital market assumptions are determined. The long-term portfolio return is established with proper consideration of diversification and rebalancing. We also use guaranteed insurance contracts for four of our foreign plans. Peer data and historical returns are reviewed to check for reasonableness and appropriateness of our expected rate of return.
Projected salary levels utilized in the determination of the projected benefit obligation for the pension plans are based upon historical experience and the future expectations for each respective country.
Our plans’ investment policies are to optimize the long-term return on plan assets at an acceptable level of risk and to maintain careful control of the risk level within each asset class. Our long-term objective is to minimize plan expenses and contributions by outperforming plan liabilities. We have historically used a balanced portfolio strategy based primarily on a target allocation of equity securities and fixed-income instruments, which vary by location. These target allocations, which are similar to the 2013 allocations, are determined based on the favorable risk tolerance characteristics of the plan and, at times, may be adjusted within a specified range to advance our overall objective.
The fair value of our pension plan assets are primarily determined by using market quotes and other relevant information that is generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, except for the insurance contract that is measured at the present value of expected future benefit payments using the Deutsche National Bank interest curve. The fair value of our pension plan assets by asset category was as follows:

The amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, consists of a net loss of $1.9 and a prior service credit of $7.0 in 2013, and a net loss of $2.7 in 2012.
In June 2013, the Board of Directors approved an amendment related to the post-65 healthcare benefits of the plan that will be effective as of July 1, 2014. The plan change includes the introduction of a Health Reimbursement Account for Medicare eligible retirees and dependents. The plan change was communicated to retirees in October 2013, and the plan was re-measured as of October 1, 2013 to reflect this amendment.
The discount rate used in the measurement of the benefit obligation was 4.7% and 3.9% in 2013 and 2012, respectively. The discount rate used in the measurement of net periodic benefit cost was 3.9% (January through September) and 4.8% (October through December), 4.8% and 5.3% in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The components of net periodic benefit cost for this plan were as follows:

The estimated net loss and prior service credit for the retiree health care plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost during 2014 is $0.1 and $0.8, respectively.
The health care cost trend rate was assumed to be 7.5% for 2013, decreasing gradually to an ultimate rate of 5.0% in 2020. Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported. A one-percentage point change in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have the following effects:

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS
We have defined contribution plans covering substantially all permanent United States employees and various other employees throughout the world. Employees may elect to contribute a portion of their salary to the plans and we match a portion of their contributions up to a maximum percentage of the employee’s salary. In addition, profit sharing contributions are made if a targeted earnings level is reached. The total expense for our match and any profit sharing contributions was $22.4, $21.5 and $24.6 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
We also have deferred compensation plans in the United States. One of the plans had an asset and liability of $69.4 and $55.5 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

	Derivative Financial Instruments
	We are exposed to various risks relating to our ongoing business operations. The primary risks, which are managed through the use of derivative instruments, are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. In certain circumstances, we enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) to reduce the effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates on our cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations. We manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and variable rate borrowings. In the past, we have also used interest rate swap agreements, however, we have not had any such agreements in 2013, 2012 or 2011. In accordance with the current accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, we record all of our derivative instruments as either an asset or liability measured at their fair values.
	FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
	The €350.0 ($480.9) Notes were designated as economic hedges of our net investment in our foreign subsidiaries with a euro-functional currency as of December 31, 2013.
	For derivatives designated as an economic hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign subsidiary, the gain or loss associated with foreign currency translation is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes. As of December 31, 2013, we had a $60.6 unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes, as the net investment hedge was deemed effective.
	Our forward contracts are not designated as hedges. Consequently, any gain or loss resulting from the change in fair value is recognized in the current period earnings. These gains or losses are offset by the exposure related to receivables and payables with our foreign subsidiaries and to interest due on our euro-denominated notes, which is paid annually in June. We recorded a gain of $0.8 associated with our forward contracts in interest and other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013, partially offsetting the losses recorded for the items noted above.
	The fair value measurements of these items recorded in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 are disclosed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

	LITIGATION
	In the normal course of business, the Company is named as defendant in various legal proceedings in which claims are asserted against the Company. We record accruals for loss contingencies based on the circumstances of each claim, when it is probable that a loss has been incurred as of the balance sheet date and can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our business or financial condition.
	In France, during the second quarter of 2013, a number of clients asserted claims against us, requesting refunds for various payroll tax subsidies that we have received dating back to 2003 related to our French temporary associates. While we receive claims in the normal course of business, there was a significant increase in claims made during the second quarter due to an impending change in the French statute of limitations that reduced the claims period from 10 to 5 years for claims filed after June 2013. We did not receive any claims in the remainder of 2013. We believe the claims against us are without merit as a matter of French law. Payroll tax subsidies have historically been for the benefit of the direct employer of the temporary associates. As such, our pricing practices implicitly consider all direct costs of employing our temporary associates, and factor in the benefit provided by these payroll tax subsidies. The French Supreme Court has been asked to confirm that, as a matter of law, the benefit of the payroll tax subsidies belongs to the direct employer, with a ruling expected during 2014. We believe the likelihood of any loss to be remote and do not expect the resolution of these claims to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or the results of our France and Southern Europe segments.
	In June 2012, we recorded legal costs of $10.0 in the United States for various legal matters, the majority of which was related to our entry into a settlement agreement in connection with a purported class action lawsuit involving allegations regarding our vacation pay policies in Illinois. Under the settlement agreement, we agreed to pay $8.0 plus certain related taxes and administrative fees. We maintain that our vacation pay policies were appropriate and we admit no liability or wrongdoing, but we believe that settlement is in our best interest to avoid the costs and disruption of ongoing litigation.
	GUARANTEES
	We have entered into certain guarantee contracts and stand-by letters of credit that total $156.5 ($118.2 for guarantees and $38.3 for stand-by letters of credit) as of December 31, 2013. The guarantees primarily relate to operating leases and indebtedness. The stand-by letters of credit relate to insurance requirements and debt facilities. If certain conditions were met under these arrangements, we would be required to satisfy our obligation in cash. Due to the nature of these arrangements and our historical experience, we do not expect to make any significant payments under these arrangements.

	Segment Data
	On a consolidated basis, the French business tax is reported in provision for income taxes, in accordance with the current accounting guidance on income taxes. Prior to the second quarter of 2013, we internally reviewed the financial results of our French operations including the French business tax within OUP given the operational nature of these taxes. While we continue to view this tax as operational, during the second quarter of 2013 we changed our internal reporting to exclude the French business tax from the OUP of our France reportable segment. Therefore, we are no longer required to show the business tax amount separately to reconcile to the consolidated results. All previously reported segment results have been restated to conform to the current year presentation. This change in segment reporting has no impact on our reporting of consolidated results.
	We are organized and managed primarily on a geographic basis, with Right Management currently operating as a separate global business unit. Each country and business unit generally have their own distinct operations and management team, providing services under our global brands, and maintains its own financial reports. We have an executive sponsor for each global brand who is responsible for ensuring the integrity and consistency of delivery locally. We develop and implement global workforce solutions for our clients that deliver the outcomes that help them achieve their business strategy. Each operation reports directly or indirectly through a regional manager to a member of executive management. Given this reporting structure, all of our operations have been segregated into the following reporting segments: Americas, which includes United States and Other Americas; Southern Europe, which includes France, Italy and Other Southern Europe; Northern Europe; APME; and Right Management.
	The Americas, Southern Europe, Northern Europe and APME segments derive a significant majority of their revenues from the placement of contingent workers. The remaining revenues within these segments are derived from other workforce solutions and services, including recruitment and assessment, training and development, and ManpowerGroup Solutions. ManpowerGroup Solutions includes Talent Based Outsourcing (TBO), TAPFIN — Managed Service Provider (MSP), Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), Borderless Talent Solutions (BTS), Strategic Workforce Consulting (SWC) and Language Services. The Right Management segment revenues are derived from career management and workforce consulting services. Segment revenues represent sales to external clients. Due to the nature of our business, we generally do not have export sales. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprise a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole.
	The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. We evaluate performance based on operating unit profit, which is equal to segment revenues less direct costs and branch and national headquarters operating costs. This profit measure does not include goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges or amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, interest and other income and expense amounts or income taxes.
	Total assets for the segments are reported after the elimination of investments in subsidiaries and intercompany accounts.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
USE OF ESTIMATES	'
	USE OF ESTIMATES
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION	'
	BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
	The Consolidated Financial Statements include our operating results and the operating results of all of our subsidiaries. For subsidiaries in which we have an ownership interest of 50% or less, but more than 20%, the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect our ownership share of those earnings using the equity method of accounting. These investments, as well as certain other relationships, are also evaluated for consolidation under the accounting guidance on consolidation of variable interest entities. These investments were $140.2 and $85.3 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 are $74.4 and $67.2, respectively, of unremitted earnings from investments accounted for using the equity method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	During the third quarter of 2013, we determined that the carrying amount of the equity interest in our Swiss franchise was understated by $37.7 due to an error in recording the currency effect on the investment. We believe that the error was not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 or the prior period consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we recorded an adjustment to increase other assets and accumulated other comprehensive income by $37.7 on the Consolidated Balance Sheet effective September 30, 2013 and the impact is included in foreign currency translation adjustments on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the year ended December 31, 2013. There was no impact to the Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for any period presented.
REVENUES AND RECEIVABLES	'
	REVENUES AND RECEIVABLES
	We generate revenues from sales of services by our company-owned branch operations and from fees earned on sales of services by our franchise operations. Revenues are recognized as services are performed. The majority of our revenues are generated by our recruitment business, where billings are generally negotiated and invoiced on a per-hour basis. Accordingly, as contingent workers are placed, we record revenues based on the hours worked. Permanent recruitment revenues are recorded as placements are made. Provisions for sales allowances, based on historical experience, are recognized at the time the related sale is recognized.
	Our franchise agreements generally state that franchise fees are calculated based on a percentage of revenues. We record franchise fee revenues monthly based on the amounts due under the franchise agreements for that month. Franchise fees, which are included in revenues from services, were $24.4, $23.9 and $25.2 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	In our outplacement business, we recognize revenues from individual programs and for large projects over the estimated period in which services are rendered to candidates. In our consulting business, revenues are recognized upon the performance of the service under the consulting service contract. For performance-based contracts, we defer recognizing revenues until the performance criteria have been met.
	The amounts billed for outplacement, consulting services and performance-based contracts in excess of the amount recognized as revenues are recorded as deferred revenue and included in accrued liabilities for the current portion and other long-term liabilities for the long-term portion in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the current portion of deferred revenue was $48.5 and $55.7, respectively, and the long-term portion of deferred revenue was $10.0 and $17.1, respectively.
	We record revenues from sales of services and the related direct costs in accordance with the accounting guidance on reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent. In situations where we act as a principal in the transaction, we report gross revenues and cost of services. When we act as an agent, we report the revenues on a net basis. Amounts billed to clients for out-of-pocket or other cost reimbursements are included in revenues from services, and the related costs are included in cost of services.
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS	'
	ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
	We have an allowance for doubtful accounts recorded as an estimate of the accounts receivable balance that may not be collected. This allowance is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration for historical write-off experience, the current aging of receivables and a specific review for potential bad debts. Items that affect this balance mainly include bad debt expense and the write-off of accounts receivable balances.
	Bad debt expense is recorded as selling and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and was $24.1, $29.2 and $25.9 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Factors that would cause this provision to increase primarily relate to increased bankruptcies by our clients and other difficulties collecting amounts billed. On the other hand, an improved write-off experience and aging of receivables would result in a decrease to the provision. Write-offs were $26.4, $23.2 and $25.0 for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
ADVERTISING COSTS	'
	ADVERTISING COSTS
	We expense production costs of advertising as they are incurred. Advertising expenses were $22.3, $27.2 and $34.0 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
RESTRUCTURING COSTS	'
	RESTRUCTURING COSTS
	We recorded net restructuring costs of $89.4, $48.8 and $23.1 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in selling and administrative expenses, primarily related to severances and office closures and consolidations in multiple countries and territories. These expenses are net of reversals of previous accruals resulting mainly from larger-than-estimated cost savings from subleasing and lease buyouts. During 2013, we made payments of $82.4 out of our restructuring reserve. We expect a majority of the remaining $48.4 reserve will be paid or utilized in 2014. Changes in the restructuring liability balances for each reportable segment and Corporate are as follows:

In 2012, United States incurred $3.4 for severance costs and $4.0 for office closure costs and paid/utilized $6.9, leaving a $3.8 liability as of December 31, 2012. In 2013, United States incurred $7.8 for severance costs and $1.8 for office closure costs and paid/utilized $8.3, leaving a $5.1 liability as of December 31, 2013.
	-2	Balance related to France was $3.5 as of January 1, 2012. In 2012, France incurred $1.7 for office closure costs and paid/utilized $1.4, leaving a $3.8 liability as of December 31, 2012. In 2013, France incurred $0.6 for severance costs and $1.6 for office closure costs and paid/utilized $2.5, leaving a $3.5 liability as of December 31, 2013. Italy had a $0.4 liability as of January 1, 2012. In 2012, Italy incurred $0.7 for severance costs and paid $0.2, leaving a $0.9 liability as of December 31, 2012. In 2013, Italy recorded severance costs of $3.4 and paid out $3.4, leaving a $0.9 liability as of December 31, 2013.
INCOME TAXES	'
	INCOME TAXES
	We account for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance on income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets for which utilization of the asset is not likely.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	'
	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	The assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

	We determine the fair value of our deferred compensation plan assets, comprised of publicly traded securities, by using market quotes as of the last day of the period. The fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts is measured at the value from either directly or indirectly observable third parties.
	The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of our variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value. The fair value of the euro-denominated notes, as observable at commonly quoted intervals (Level 2 inputs), was $520.1 and $778.8 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $480.9 and $725.5, respectively.
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS	'

	-2	Balances were net of accumulated impairment loss of $139.5 as of both December 31, 2013 and 2012.
	Amortization expense related to intangibles was $34.1, $36.7 and $38.9 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Amortization expense expected in each of the next five years related to acquisitions completed as of December 31, 2013 is as follows: 2014 — $30.3, 2015 — $27.0, 2016 — $23.9, 2017 — $20.3 and 2018 — $18.0. The weighted-average useful lives of the technology, franchise agreements, customer relationships and other are 5, 10, 14 and 3 years, respectively. The tradenames have been assigned an indefinite life based on our expectation of renewing the tradenames, as required, without material modifications and at a minimal cost, and our expectation of positive cash flows beyond the foreseeable future. The reacquired franchise rights result from our franchise acquisitions in the United States and Canada completed prior to 2009.
	In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets at our unit of account level during the third quarter, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value.
	We performed our annual impairment test of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the third quarterof 2013, 2012 and 2011, and there was no impairment of our goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible as a result of ourannual tests.
	We utilize a two-step method for determining goodwill impairment. In the first step, we determined the fair value of each reporting unit, generally by utilizing an income approach derived from a discounted cash flow methodology. For certain of our reporting units, a combination of the income approach (weighted 75%) and the market approach (weighted 25%) derived from comparable public companies was utilized. The income approach is developed from management’s forecasted cash flow data. Therefore, it represents an indication of fair market value reflecting management’s internal outlook for the reporting unit. The market approach utilizes the Guideline Public Company Method to quantify the respective reporting unit’s fair value based on revenues and earnings multiples realized by similar public companies. The market approach is more volatile as an indicator of fair value as compared to the income approach. We believe that each approach has its merits. However in the instances where we have utilized both approaches, we have weighted the income approach more heavily than the market approach because we believe that management’s assumptions generally provide greater insight into the reporting unit’s fair value.
	Significant assumptions used in our goodwill impairment tests during 2013, 2012 and 2011 included: expected revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, working capital levels, discount rates ranging from 11.7% to 16.5% for 2013, and a terminal value multiple. The expected future revenue growth rates and the expected operating unit profit margins were determined after considering our historical revenue growth rates and operating unit profit margins, our assessment of future market potential, and our expectations of future business performance, including the effects of our simplification and recalibration plan.
	If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, we are required to perform a second step. In the second step, we allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, in a “hypothetical” calculation to determine the implied fair value of the goodwill. The impairment charge, if any, is measured as the difference between the implied fair value of the goodwill and its carrying value.
	Under the current accounting guidance, we are also required to test our indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the intangible asset’s fair value is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES	'
	MARKETABLE SECURITIES
	We account for our marketable security investments under the accounting guidance on certain investments in debt and equity securities, and have determined that all such investments are classified as available-for-sale. Accordingly, unrealized gains and unrealized losses that are determined to be temporary, net of related income taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses, and unrealized losses determined to be other-than-temporary, are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We had no available-for-sale investments as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
	We hold a 49% interest in our Swiss franchise, which maintained an investment portfolio with a market value of $204.2 and $192.5 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This portfolio is comprised of a wide variety of European and United States debt and equity securities as well as various professionally-managed funds, all of which are classified as available-for-sale. Our share of net realized gains and losses, and declines in value determined to be other-than-temporary, are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, realized gains totaled $3.6, $0.1 and $0.1, respectively, and realized losses totaled $1.4, $0.2 and $0.3, respectively. Our share of net unrealized gains and unrealized losses that are determined to be temporary related to these investments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, with the offsetting amount increasing or decreasing our investment in the franchise.
CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE FOR INTERNAL USE	'
	CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE FOR INTERNAL USE
	We capitalize purchased software as well as internally developed software. Internal software development costs are capitalized from the time the internal use software is considered probable of completion until the software is ready for use. Business analysis, system evaluation, selection and software maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software which ranges from 3 to 10 years. The net capitalized software balance of $4.6 and $10.6 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amortization expense related to the capitalized software costs was $5.6, $7.3 and $7.8 for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT	'
	PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
	A summary of property and equipment as of December 31 is as follows:
				2013				2012
	Land		$	6.2			$	6.8
	Buildings			20.8				21
	Furniture, fixtures, and autos			194.1				198.4
	Computer equipment			168.1				169.2
	Leasehold improvements			317				308.7
	Property and equipment		$	706.2			$	704.1
	Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using primarily the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: buildings — up to 40 years; furniture, fixtures, autos and computer equipment — 2 to 16 years; leasehold improvements — lesser of life of asset or expected lease term. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized whereas expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to income as incurred. Upon sale or disposition of property and equipment, the difference between the unamortized cost and the proceeds is recorded as either a gain or a loss and is included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment in accordance with the provisions of the accounting guidance on the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	'
	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
	We account for our derivative instruments in accordance with the accounting guidance on derivative instruments and hedging activities. Derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of the changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations when the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portions of the changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION	'
	FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
	The financial statements of our non-United States subsidiaries have been translated in accordance with the accounting guidance on foreign currency translation. Under the accounting guidance, asset and liability accounts are translated at the current exchange rate and income statement items are translated at the weighted-average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is included in shareholders’ equity.
	Our euro-denominated notes are accounted for as a hedge of our net investment in our subsidiaries with a euro-functional currency. Since our net investment in these subsidiaries exceeds the amount of the related borrowings, all translation gains or losses related to these borrowings are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY	'
	SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
	In December 2012 and November 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 8.0 million and 3.0 million shares of our common stock, respectively. Share repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, forward repurchase agreements or similar facilities. No repurchases were made in 2013. In 2012, we repurchased a total of 3.6 million shares, comprised of 0.6 million shares under a previous authorization and 3.0 million shares under the 2011 authorization, at a total cost of $138.2. In 2011, we repurchased a total of 2.6 million shares under previous authorizations at a total cost of $104.5. As of December 31, 2013, there were 8.0 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2012 authorization and no shares remaining under any previous authorizations.
	During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Board of Directors declared total cash dividends of $0.92, $0.86 and $0.80 per share, respectively, resulting in total dividend payments of $72.0, $67.8 and $65.1, respectively.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS	'
	CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
	We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
PAYROLL TAX CREDIT	'
	PAYROLL TAX CREDIT
	In January 2013, the French government passed legislation, Credit d’Impôt pour la Compétitivité et l’Emploi (“CICE”), effective January 1, 2013, that provides payroll tax credits based on a percentage of wages paid to employees receiving less than two-and-a-half times the French minimum wage. The payroll tax credit is equal to 4% of eligible wages in 2013 and increases to 6% of eligible wages starting in 2014. The CICE payroll tax credit is accounted for as a reduction of our cost of services in the period earned.
	The payroll tax credit is creditable against our current income tax payable, with any remaining amount being paid after three years. Given the amount of our current income taxes payable, we would generally receive the vast majority of these payroll tax credits after the three-year period. However, we entered into an agreement in December 2013 to sell a portion of the credits earned in 2013 for net proceeds of $104.0. We derecognized these receivables upon sale date as the terms of the agreement are such that the transaction qualifies for sale treatment according to the accounting guidance on the transfer and servicing of assets. The discount on the sale of this receivable was recorded as a reduction of the 2013 payroll tax credits in cost of services.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS	'
	RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
	In March 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on cumulative translation adjustment. The new guidance requires that currency translation adjustments should be released into net income only if the sale of a foreign subsidiary results in the complete liquidation of the entity. For an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, a pro rata portion of the currency translation adjustments should be released into net income upon a partial sale of such an equity method investment. The new guidance also clarifies that the sale of an investment in a foreign entity includes both (1) events that result in the loss of a controlling financial interest in the foreign entity and (2) events that result in an acquirer’s obtaining control of an acquiree in which it held an equity interest immediately before the acquisition date, otherwise known as a “step acquisition.” Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income upon the occurrence of those events. The guidance is effective for us in 2014. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
	In July 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit. The new guidance requires that, in certain cases, an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to the deferred tax asset when there is an existing net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or an existing tax credit carryforward. The guidance is effective for us in 2014. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
