 position, results of operations, or liquidity.Legal Proceedings     We face potential exposure in several legal proceedings in which damages or claims (including, without limitation, indemnification claims by named defendants in legal proceedings in which we are not a party) have been asserted against us. We believe that we have valid defenses to such proceedings and claims, but litigation is inherently uncertain. We additionally maintain insurance coverage for certain of these matters, although these policies do not cover all possible claims and certain of the policies are subject to large deductibles and retentions. We do not believe that any such matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. We record a loss contingency if we consider the potential loss from a proceeding or claim probable, and we are able to reasonably estimate the amount or can reasonably determine a range of loss. We provide disclosure when we believe a loss in excess of any recorded provision is reasonably possible. Significant judgment is required in these determinations. As additional information becomes available, we reassess prior determinations and may change our estimates. Additional claims may be asserted against us in the future. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of litigation is not predictable with assurance. A litigation matter for which liabilities have not been recorded could be decided unfavorably to us, and any such unfavorable decision could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.Insurance LiabilitiesWe have loss payment deductibles for certain workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general liability, and property claims, have self-insured retentions for certain other casualty claims, and are self-insured for employee-related healthcare claims. In addition, we maintain a wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary to manage certain of our insurance liabilities. Losses are recorded based upon estimates of our liability for claims incurred and for claims incurred but not reported. The liabilities are derived from known facts, historical trends, and industry averages, utilizing the assistance of an independent third-party actuary to determine the best estimate for the majority of these obligations. To the extent that the amount required to settle claims covered by insurance continues to increase, the cost of our insurance coverage, including premiums and deductibles, is likely to increase. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the estimated current portion of such undiscounted insurance liabilities, included in “Other accrued expenses and liabilities” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $68.6 million and $50.8 million, respectively
