Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

(1) Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.

Leases

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and long-term lease liabilities are presented as separate line items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Current operating lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We determine our incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date using our unsecured borrowing rate, adjusted for collaterization, lease term, economic environment, currency and other factors. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to renew or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Lease expenses for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Payroll Tax Credit

In April 2019, we sold a portion of our French payroll tax credits earned in 2018 for net proceeds of $103.5 (€92.0). In April 2018, we sold substantially all of our French payroll tax credits earned in 2017 for net proceeds of $234.5 (€190.9). We derecognized these receivables and the additional interest upon the sale date as the terms of the agreement are such that the transaction qualifies for sale treatment in accordance with the accounting guidance on the transfer and servicing of assets. The discount on the sale of these receivables was recorded in cost of services as a reduction of the payroll tax credits.

Goodwill Impairment

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 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 the reporting units below their carrying value. The most recent annual impairment test was performed during the third quarter of 2018.

For the second quarter of 2019, in connection with the preparation of our quarterly financial statements, we assessed the changes in circumstances that occurred during the quarter to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit was below its carrying amount.

We identified several factors related to our Germany reporting unit that led us to conclude that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was below its carrying amount. These factors included a further downward trend in the performance of the business due to current market conditions, a more cautious outlook for the business stemming from the impact

of changes to temporary staffing regulations in Germany, and the recording of a valuation allowance against our Germany deferred tax assets during the second quarter.

As we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Germany reporting unit was below its carrying amount, we performed an interim impairment test on this reporting unit as of June 30, 2019. As a result of our interim test, we recognized a non-cash impairment loss of $60.2. The Germany reporting unit is included in the Northern Europe segment.

In performing our interim impairment test, we determined the fair value of the reporting unit by utilizing an income approach derived from a discounted cash flow methodology. The income approach is developed from management’s forecasted cash flow data. Significant assumptions used in our interim goodwill impairment test included: expected revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, working capital levels, discount rate, and a terminal value multiple.

In addition, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $3.8 related to our New Zealand operations as a result of not meeting profitability expectations.

Subsequent Events

On July 10, 2019, our joint venture in Greater China, ManpowerGroup Greater China Limited, became listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited through an initial public offering. Prior to the initial public offering, we owned a 51% controlling interest in the joint venture and consolidated the financial position and results of its operations into our Consolidated Financial Statements as part of our APME segment. As a result of the offering, in which ManpowerGroup Greater China Limited issued new shares representing 25% of the equity of the company, our ownership interest was diluted to 38.25%, subject to further dilution to 36.87% if the underwriters exercise their overallotment option in full. As a result, we will deconsolidate the joint venture as of the listing date and account for our remaining interest under the equity method of accounting and record our share of equity income or loss in interest and other (income) expenses, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

We will finalize our accounting for this transaction during the third quarter of 2019. We have evaluated all other events and transactions occurring after the balance sheet date through our filing date and have accrued or disclosed any related accounting impacts, if appropriate.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

(2) Recent Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Effective as of January 1, 2019

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new accounting guidance on leases, ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which we adopted on January 1, 2019. The new guidance requires that a lessee recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms longer than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows depend on the classification by the lessee as a finance or operating lease. We determined that no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings was necessary upon adoption. As of the transition date, the ROU asset and total lease liability (current and long-term) were $458.1 and $458.7, respectively.

We elected the package of three practical expedients which lessened the transitional burden of implementing the new guidance. Accordingly, we did not reassess: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; or 3) the initial direct costs for any existing leases. We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. Lastly, we have elected to apply the short-term lease exception for all underlying asset classes.

In August 2017, the FASB issued new guidance on hedge accounting. The amendments in this guidance include the elimination of the concept of recognizing periodic hedge ineffectiveness for cash flow and net investment hedges, recognition and presentation of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument, recognition and presentation of components excluded from an entity's hedge effectiveness assessment, addition of the ability to elect to perform subsequent effectiveness assessments qualitatively, and addition of new disclosure requirements. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. There was no impact of this adoption on our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the modified disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on reporting comprehensive income. The new guidance allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the United States Tax

Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Act"). The guidance was effective for us as of January 1, 2019. We elected not to adopt this optional reclassification.

In June 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for share-based payment awards. The guidance makes the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees largely consistent with the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. There was no impact of this adoption on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on financial instruments. The new guidance requires application of an impairment model known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to certain financial instruments. Using the CECL model, an entity recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses based on historical experience, current conditions, and forecasted information rather than the current methodology of delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable loss has been incurred. The new guidance is effective for us in 2020. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures related to fair value measurements. The guidance is intended to improve the effectiveness of the notes to financial statements by facilitating clearer communication, and it includes multiple new, eliminated and modified disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for us in 2020. The adoption of this guidance will have no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for internal-use software. The guidance aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. The guidance is effective for us in 2020. We are assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures related to defined benefit plans. The guidance amends the current disclosure requirements to add, remove and clarify disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The guidance is effective for us in 2021. The adoption of this guidance will have no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

We do not disclose the amount of unsatisfied performance obligations for client contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and those client contracts for which we recognize revenues at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. We have other contracts with revenues expected to be recognized subsequent to June 30, 2019, related to remaining performance obligations, which are not material.

We record accounts receivable when our right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets primarily relate to our rights to consideration for services provided that they are conditional on satisfaction of future performance obligations. We record contract liabilities (deferred revenue) when payments are made or due prior to the related performance obligations being satisfied. The current portion of our contract liabilities is included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not have any material contract assets or long-term contract liabilities.

Our deferred revenue was $42.5 at June 30, 2019 and $42.8 at December 31, 2018. The decrease is due to $35.6 of revenues recognized related to amounts that were included in the December 31, 2018 balance, partially offset by payments or amounts due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by service types for each of our reportable segments. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Annual Report on Form10-K for descriptions of revenue service types.

Share-Based Compensation Plans

(4) Share-Based Compensation Plans

During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized share-based compensation expense of $8.3 and $5.3, respectively, and $12.9 and $12.8 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The expense relates to stock options, deferred stock, restricted stock and performance share units. We recognize share-based compensation expense in selling and administrative expenses on a straight-line basis over the service period of each award. Consideration received from share-based awards was $5.3 and $4.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Acquisitions

(5) Acquisitions

On April 3, 2019, we acquired the remaining 51% controlling interest in our Swiss franchise (“Manpower Switzerland”) to obtain full ownership of the entity. Additionally, as part of the purchase agreement we acquired the remaining 20% interest in Experis AG. Manpower Switzerland provides contingent staffing services under our Manpower brand in the four main language regions in Switzerland. Both Manpower Switzerland and Experis AG are reported in our Southern Europe segment. The aggregate cash consideration paid was $212.7 and was funded through cash on hand. Of the total consideration paid, $58.3 was for the acquired interests and the remaining $154.4 was for cash and cash equivalents. The amounts paid are subject to certain working capital and net debt adjustments based on the actual working capital and net debt existing on the acquisition date compared to target amounts. The acquisition of the remaining interest of Experis AG was accounted for as an equity transaction as we previously consolidated the entity.

Our investment in Manpower Switzerland prior to the acquisition was accounted for under the equity method of accounting and we recorded our share of equity income or loss in interest and other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The acquisition of the remaining controlling interest in Manpower Switzerland was accounted for as a business combination and the assets and liabilities of Manpower Switzerland were included in the June 30, 2019 Consolidated Balance

Sheets, and the results of its operations have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations subsequent to the acquisition date.

The aggregate of the consideration paid and the fair value of previously held equity interest totaled $408.3, or $90.8 net of cash acquired. In connection with the business combination, we recognized a one-time, non-cash gain on the disposition of our previously held equity interest in Manpower Switzerland of $80.4, which is included within interest and other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Of the $80.4, $32.5 represented the reclassification of foreign currency translation adjustments related to the previously held equity interest, from accumulated other comprehensive income.

The assets and liabilities are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2019 within our Southern Europe segment. The acquired assets and assumed liabilities include the following:

	April 3, 2019
Cash and cash equivalents	$	317.5
Accounts receivable		60.4
Prepaid expenses and other assets		31.4
Goodwill		31.2
Intangible assets subject to amortization, customer relationship		19.6
Intangible assets not subject to amortization, reacquired franchise rights		25.5
Property and equipment		0.4
Accounts payable		21.6
Employee compensation payable		2.5
Accrued liabilities		13.7
Accrued payroll taxes and insurance		7.5
Value added taxes payable		7.4
Other long-term liabilities		25.0
Total assets acquired and liabilities assumed	$	408.3

The amounts in the above table represent the preliminary allocation of purchase price and are subject to revision when valuations are finalized for intangible assets, which are expected in 2019. The customer relationship intangible asset is expected to be amortized over a 15 year useful life. The goodwill from the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Manpower Switzerland contributed net revenues from services of $111.0 since the acquisition. Our consolidated unaudited proforma historical net revenues from services, as if Manpower Switzerland had been acquired at the beginning of 2018, are estimated as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Net revenues from services	$	5,373.1	$	5,780.9	$	10,516.6	$	11,397.7

From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. The total cash consideration paid for acquisitions excluding Manpower Switzerland and Experis AG, net of cash acquired, was $17.7 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This balance represents contingent consideration payments related to previous acquisitions, of which $13.0 had been recognized as a liability at the acquisition date. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the total cash consideration for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $47.4, the majority of which took place in the Netherlands. This balance includes initial acquisition payments of $8.2 and contingent consideration payments of $39.2, of which $15.1 had been recognized as a liability at the acquisition date.

We recorded net restructuring costs of $41.4 and $39.3 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively, in selling and administrative expenses, primarily related to severances and office closures and consolidations in multiple countries and territories. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the costs paid, utilized or transferred out of our restructuring reserve was $31.9. We expect a majority of the remaining $25.0 reserve will be paid, utilized or transferred out by the end of 2019.

Income Taxes

(7) Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 36.7% for three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to an effective rate of 27.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The 2019 rate was unfavorably impacted by the transition of the French CICE subsidy, which was non-taxable, to new French subsidies in January 2019 that are taxable, the goodwill impairment related to our investments in Germany and New Zealand, which was nondeductible, and the recognition of a valuation allowance in Germany. These items were partially offset by the favorable impact of the gain from the acquisition of Manpower Switzerland, which was non-taxable. The 36.7% effective tax rate in the quarter was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the French business tax, restructuring costs recorded in the quarter, our overall mix of earnings, and the recognition of a valuation allowance in Germany. We recorded income tax expense at the effective rate of 38.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to an effective rate of 28.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The 38.6% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was higher than the United States Federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the French business tax, our overall mix of earnings, and the recognition of a valuation allowance in Germany.

As of June 30, 2019, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties, of $35.2 that would favorably impact the effective tax rate if recognized. As of December 31, 2018, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits related to various tax jurisdictions, including interest and penalties of $34.2. We do not expect our unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next 12 months.

We conduct business globally in various 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 2012 through 2019 for our major operations in France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. As of June 30, 2019, we are subject to tax audits in Austria, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany and the United States. We believe that the resolution of these audits will not have a material impact on earnings.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests, reported in total shareholders' equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, represent amounts related to majority-owned subsidiaries in which we have a controlling financial interest. Net earnings attributable to these noncontrolling interests are recorded in interest and other (income) expenses, net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recorded expenses of $0.1 and $1.0 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1.1 and $2.2 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The portion of earnings attributed to the noncontrolling interest for ManpowerGroup Greater China Limited is included in the above amounts. (See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the subsequent deconsolidation of the entity.)

Dividends

On May 10, 2019 and May 4, 2018, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual cash dividend of $1.09 and $1.01 per share, respectively. The 2019 dividends were paid on June 14, 2019 to shareholders of record on June 3, 2019. The 2018 dividends were paid on June 15, 2018 to shareholders of record on June 1, 2018.

Share Repurchases

In August 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 6.0 million shares of our common stock, with terms consistent with the previous authorizations. This authorization is in addition to the August 2018 and July 2016 Board authorizations to purchase 6.0 million shares of our common stock each. Share repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions or similar facilities. During the first six months of 2019, we repurchased a total of 1.2 million shares at a cost of $101.0 under the 2018 authorization. During the first six months of 2018, we repurchased 1.0 million shares at a cost of $113.2 under the 2016 authorization. As of June 30, 2019, there were 1.9 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2018 authorization and no shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2016 authorization.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

(13) Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Financial Instruments

We are exposed to various market risks relating to our ongoing business operations. The primary market risks, which are managed using 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”) and cross-currency swaps 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 have historically managed interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and variable rate borrowings.

The €400.0 ($453.3) notes due September 2022 and the €500.0 ($563.4) notes due June 2026 were designated as a hedge of our net investment in our foreign subsidiaries with a Euro-functional currency as of June 30, 2019. The gain or loss associated with foreign currency translation on these notes is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI"), net of taxes. On occasion, forward contracts are also designated as a hedge of our net investment in our foreign subsidiaries.

In April 2019, we entered into a cross-currency swap agreement to convert our intercompany fixed-rate, Swiss franc (“CHF”) denominated note, including the annual interest payment and the payment of remaining principal at maturity, to a fixed-rate Euro denominated note. The economic effect of the swap agreement was to eliminate the uncertainty of cash flows in CHF associated with the notes by fixing the principal at €202.3 with a fixed annual interest rate of 1.256%. This hedging arrangement has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The swap matures in April 2022, which matches the term of the intercompany note. Gains and losses from the hedge offsets the changes in the value of principal and interest payments as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates.

We assessed the hedging relationship at the inception of the hedge in order to determine whether the derivatives that are used in the hedging transaction are highly effective in offsetting the cash flows of the hedged item and will continue to assess the relationship on an ongoing basis. We use the hypothetical derivative method in conjunction with regression analysis using a third party valuation to measure effectiveness of our cross-currency swap agreement. The change in the fair value of the swap is deferred in AOCI in the Consolidated Statement of Operations until the hedged item impacts earnings.

The effect of our net investment hedges and cross-currency swaps on AOCI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018 was as follows:


	Gain (Loss) Recognized in					Location of Gain Reclassified	Gain Reclassified

Cross-currency swaps		5.0		-	Interest and other (income) expenses, net		5.4		-

(1)	The prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

We expect the net amount of pre-tax derivative gains and losses included in AOCI at June 30, 2019 to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months will not be significant. The actual amount that will be reclassified to earnings over the next twelve months will vary due to future currency exchange rates.

For our forward contracts that are not designated as hedges, 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 and September. The effect of our forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30 was as follows:

	Location of Gain	Amount of Gain Recognized in Income
Instrument	Recognized in Income	3 Months Ended June 30,				6 Months Ended June 30,

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value, except for the Euro-denominated notes. The fair value of the Euro-denominated notes, as observable at commonly quoted intervals (Level 2 inputs), was $1,083.5 and $1,052.9 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $1,016.7 and $1,024.6, respectively.

Our deferred compensation plan assets were $101.6 and $89.5 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 respectively. We determine the fair value of these assets, comprised of publicly traded securities, by using market quotes as of the last day of the period (Level 1 inputs).

We measure the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps at the value based on either directly or indirectly observable inputs from third parties (Level 2 inputs).

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

(14) Leases

We have operating leases for real estate, vehicles, and equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 month to 12 years. Our lease agreements may include renewal or termination options for varying periods that are generally at our discretion. In our lease term, we only include those periods related to renewal options we are reasonably certain to exercise. However, we generally do not include these renewal options as we are not reasonably certain to renew at the lease commencement date. This determination is based on our consideration of certain economic, strategic and other factors that we evaluate at lease commencement date and reevaluate throughout the lease term. Some leases also include options to terminate the leases and we only include those periods beyond the termination date if we are reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option.

Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage or may vary for other reasons, such as payments for insurance and tax payments. The variable portion of lease payments is not included in our ROU assets or lease liabilities. Rather, variable payments, other than those dependent upon an index or rate, are expensed when the obligation for those payments is incurred and are included in lease expenses recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We have lease agreements with both lease and non-lease components that are treated as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all expenses associated with a lease contract are accounted for as lease expenses.

We have elected to apply the short-term lease exception for all underlying asset classes. That is, leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet, but rather expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not include significant restrictions or covenants in our lease agreements, and residual value guarantees are generally not included within our operating leases. As of June 30, 2019, we did not have any material additional operating leases that have not yet commenced.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Data

(15) Segment Data

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 has its 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. Each operation reports directly or indirectly through a regional manager, to a member of executive management. Given this reporting structure, we operate using 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 our staffing and interim services. The remaining revenues within these segments are derived from our outcome-based solutions and consulting services, permanent recruitment services and other services. The Right Management segment revenues are derived from outplacement and talent management services. Segment revenues represent sales to external clients. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprise a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole. Due to the nature of our business, we generally do not have export sales.

On April 26, 2017, the sellers of 7S, a company we acquired in 2015, formally disputed the contingent consideration related to the acquisition, claiming that they were owed an additional $23.7 (€20.8), plus interest. The dispute was submitted to an arbitration tribunal in Germany. On June 28, 2019, the arbitration forum handed down its decision, rejecting the claims brought by the 7S sellers. Finding in favor of ManpowerGroup, the arbitration tribunal confirmed that no further amounts are owed by us, and also awarded us reimbursement of legal fees and other costs.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.
Leases	Leases We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and long-term lease liabilities are presented as separate line items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Current operating lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We determine our incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date using our unsecured borrowing rate, adjusted for collaterization, lease term, economic environment, currency and other factors. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to renew or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expenses for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Payroll Tax Credit	Payroll Tax Credit In April 2019, we sold a portion of our French payroll tax credits earned in 2018 for net proceeds of $103.5 (€92.0). In April 2018, we sold substantially all of our French payroll tax credits earned in 2017 for net proceeds of $234.5 (€190.9). We derecognized these receivables and the additional interest upon the sale date as the terms of the agreement are such that the transaction qualifies for sale treatment in accordance with the accounting guidance on the transfer and servicing of assets. The discount on the sale of these receivables was recorded in cost of services as a reduction of the payroll tax credits.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	(2) Recent Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Effective as of January 1, 2019 In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new accounting guidance on leases, ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which we adopted on January 1, 2019. The new guidance requires that a lessee recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms longer than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows depend on the classification by the lessee as a finance or operating lease. We determined that no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings was necessary upon adoption. As of the transition date, the ROU asset and total lease liability (current and long-term) were $458.1 and $458.7, respectively. We elected the package of three practical expedients which lessened the transitional burden of implementing the new guidance. Accordingly, we did not reassess: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; or 3) the initial direct costs for any existing leases. We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. Lastly, we have elected to apply the short-term lease exception for all underlying asset classes. In August 2017, the FASB issued new guidance on hedge accounting. The amendments in this guidance include the elimination of the concept of recognizing periodic hedge ineffectiveness for cash flow and net investment hedges, recognition and presentation of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument, recognition and presentation of components excluded from an entity's hedge effectiveness assessment, addition of the ability to elect to perform subsequent effectiveness assessments qualitatively, and addition of new disclosure requirements. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. There was no impact of this adoption on our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the modified disclosures. In February 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on reporting comprehensive income. The new guidance allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the United States Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Act"). The guidance was effective for us as of January 1, 2019. We elected not to adopt this optional reclassification. In June 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for share-based payment awards. The guidance makes the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees largely consistent with the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. There was no impact of this adoption on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on financial instruments. The new guidance requires application of an impairment model known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to certain financial instruments. Using the CECL model, an entity recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses based on historical experience, current conditions, and forecasted information rather than the current methodology of delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable loss has been incurred. The new guidance is effective for us in 2020. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures related to fair value measurements. The guidance is intended to improve the effectiveness of the notes to financial statements by facilitating clearer communication, and it includes multiple new, eliminated and modified disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for us in 2020. The adoption of this guidance will have no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for internal-use software. The guidance aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. The guidance is effective for us in 2020. We are assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures related to defined benefit plans. The guidance amends the current disclosure requirements to add, remove and clarify disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans.
