Postemployment Benefits [Abstract]
Retirement Benefit Plans	Retirement Benefit Plans During the fiscal years ended December 29, 2019, December 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, we offered a defined contribution retirement benefit plan for our U.S. based employees. Our defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code), covers U.S. employees who are 18 years of age and over. Under this plan, we have elected to make matching contributions to all eligible participants in an amount equal to 100% of the first three percent of eligible compensation, and 50% of the next two percent of eligible compensation, contributed to the Plan as deferral contributions. Employees are 100% vested in their rollover contributions, employer non-elective contributions, employer matching contributions, qualified non-elective contributions, deferral contributions, safe harbor matching employer contributions and any earnings thereon. The expense related to this plan recognized within our results from continuing operations was $7.2 million in 2019, $6.2 million in 2018, and $5.5 million in 2017.
