                            BOARD OF DIRECTORS 

      The business, property and affairs of the Company are managed by the 
Board of Directors, which establishes broad corporate policies and 
performance objectives, but is not involved in the day-to-day operating 
details. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors are held in each 
quarter and special meetings are scheduled when required. The Board held 
four meetings during the last fiscal year. 

      The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, composed of 
Messrs. Fricke, Guenther and Istock, which held four meetings in 1993. The 
Audit Committee's purpose is to review the scope of the work and fees of 
the independent accountants and to review with the independent accountants 
their report or opinion on the Company's financial statements. 

      During 1993 the Board of Directors did not have a nominating 
committee. The Compensation Committee whose functions are described in the 
Compensation Committee Report on page 4 of this proxy statement held seven 
meetings in 1993 and is composed of Messrs. Fricke and Guenther. 

                        COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS 

      Directors of the Company who are not salaried officers are paid an 
annual retainer fee of $21,000, a fee of $1,000 for each meeting of the 
Board of Directors attended and a fee of $800 for each meeting of a 
committee of the Board of Directors attended. 

       COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION 

      Mr. Fricke and Mr. Guenther served on the Compensation Committee 
during 1993. 

      Mr. Adderley, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, 
serves on the board of directors of NBD Bancorp, Inc. and is a member of 
its Compensation Committee. Mr. Istock, a director of the Company, is 
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and a director of NBD Bancorp, Inc. 

                      COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT 

      The Company's compensation program for executives is administered by 
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors consisting entirely 
of the non-officer directors shown at the end of this report. The 
Committee has responsibility for review and final approval of all 
adjustments in salary and short-term incentive awards for executives of 
the Company, including, with respect to 1993, administering the Kelly 
Services, Inc. Short-Term Incentive Plan. The Committee also administers 
the Kelly Services, Inc. Performance Incentive Plan (the Company's 
long-term incentive plan) and makes recommendations with respect to 
granting awards under such plan subject to review and approval by a 
majority of the full complement of those members of the Board of Directors 
who are "disinterested persons" as that term is used in Rule 16b-3 of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission. 

COMPENSATION PRINCIPLES 

      The philosophy underlying the Company's executive compensation 
program has the following goals: (a) to align key executive and management 
employees with the Company's strategic and financial objectives; (b) to 
attract, retain and motivate a management team of high quality; (c) to 
create incentives which motivate employees to achieve continual growth and 

                                       4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>

increasing profitability of the Company; and (d) to promote appreciation 
of the common interests of stockholders, executives and key management 
employees. 

      Total compensation is directly related to the successful achievement 
of the Company's performance objectives. Short-term objectives are 
established on an annual basis, the achievement of which is rewarded 
annually. Long-term objectives will be tied to a two-to-five-year 
performance period, the achievement of which will be rewarded accordingly. 
All compensation, other than stock options, whether in the form of salary, 
short-term incentive awards or grants of stock, or cash equivalents, will 
be based on successful accomplishment of periodically established 
objectives reflecting the Company's strategic business and financial 
plans. 

      Performance objectives, which are identified as short or long-term, 
provide standards for the measurement of Company, unit and individual 
performance. Some performance objectives are Company-wide; others may 
vary, depending on individual responsibilities, groups of employees or 
particular projects and plans. 

      The Company has reviewed the nondeductability of executive 
compensation in excess of $1 million as required by Section 162(m) of the 
Internal Revenue Code, but has decided, in view of its limited potential 
applicability with respect to 1994 executive compensation, to take no 
action exempting 1994 compensation from operation of the provision. The 
Company will continue to review the matter with respect to subsequent 
years. 

      The following is a discussion of the major elements of the Company's 
executive compensation program along with a description of the decisions 
and actions taken by the Committee with regard to 1993 compensation of Mr. 
Adderley as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. 

ANNUAL COMPENSATION 

      Annual cash compensation for executive officers consists of base 
salaries and, for 1993, variable short-term incentive awards earned under 
the Company's Short-Term Incentive Plan. Base salaries for executive 
officers are targeted to be competitive with the marketplace identified by 
national surveys of executive compensation in which the Company 
periodically participates and which are recognized and credible within the 
professional field of compensation management. Because the Company 
competes for executive-level personnel beyond the temporary help industry, 
the companies included in the surveys referred to above are not the same 
as those included in the Industry Index presented in the performance graph 
in the Company's Proxy Statement. Base salaries are targeted to correspond 
generally with the median of the range of salaries in the surveys 
consulted. 

      Competitive assessments incorporate benchmarking against companies, 
not in the temporary help industry, of similar revenue and other relevant 
factors. Individual performance is also a factor in determining base 
salary. The Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving the 
annual salary increase budget for all officers. 

      For 1993, Mr. Adderley received a 5.88 percent salary increase from 
$510,000 to $540,000 to bring his base salary more in line with the median 
base salary of chief executive officers of other companies of comparable 
size. 

      Annual incentive awards for executive officers paid under the 
Short-Term Incentive Plan required that the Company achieve a certain 
level of earnings per share ("EPS"). Because the Company exceeded the 
threshold EPS objective established for 1993, the Committee approved 

                                       5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>

short-term incentive awards based upon a percentage of the individual 
executive's target award combined with an assessment of unit and 
individual officer performance. In Mr. Adderley's case, his award, which 
was based entirely on the Company's financial performance, was 70 percent 
of his target award of $270,000, or $190,000 rounded. Awards for other 
executive officers, including the four executive officers named in the 
accompanying tables ("Named Executives"), were determined based on the 
Company's EPS results combined with an assessment of their individual and 
unit performance. 

LONG-TERM COMPENSATION 

      The long-term incentive compensation for executive officers consists 
of cash and stock-based awards made under the Company's Performance 
Incentive Plan. Non-Qualified and Incentive Stock Options are currently 
the only type of awards outstanding under the Performance Incentive Plan. 

      During 1993, a review of compensation components for chief executive 
officers in companies of similar size indicated that Mr. Adderley's 
compensation was substantially below competitive levels, given the fact 
that Mr. Adderley had not been awarded stock options under the Company's 
1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan which expired in February 1992. As a 
result, the Committee took action during 1993 to award Mr. Adderley a 
Non-Qualified Stock Option of 25,000 shares of Class A Stock and an 
Incentive Stock Option of 6,000 shares of Class A Stock to bring his 
compensation package more in line with competitive practice. 

      The decision to grant options is considered periodically by the 
Committee during each year. Grants may be given to new hires, employees 
promoted to new positions and other key managers and executives as deemed 
appropriate by the Committee. Grant size is determined based on a targeted 
guideline of option shares for each management level that is competitive 
with practices of companies of similar size. Decisions regarding the size 
of an individual grant take into consideration the number of outstanding, 
unexercised shares available to the individual compared to the targeted 
guideline of the number of shares for the respective management level of 
the employee. The decision to grant options to an individual or groups of 
individuals is based on an assessment of any, some or all of the 
following: (1) to align employee interests with that of stockholders, (2) 
to reward for past performance, (3) to encourage long-term, continuous 
improvement in the profitability of the Company, and (4) share price. 

CONCLUSION 

      The Committee believes that the Company's executive compensation 
program, providing as it does for competitive base salaries along with 
short and long-term incentive compensation opportunities, is an important 
factor in motivating senior officers as well as maintaining an appropriate 
focus on increasing stockholder value.

OPTION GRANTS IN 1993 

      The following table shows all grants of stock options to the 
officers named in the Summary Compensation Table above in 1993. The 
exercise price of all such options was the fair market value on the date 
of grant except that the option for 6,000 shares granted to Mr. Adderley 
at $27.23 was at 110% of the fair market value of $24.75 on the date of 
the grant. Upon exercise of an option, an officer purchases all or a 
portion of the shares covered by the option by paying the exercise price 
multiplied by the number of shares as to which the option is exercised, 
either in cash or by surrendering common shares already owned by the 
officer.

      The dollar amounts under the 5% and 10% columns in the table above 
are the result of calculations required by the Securities and Exchange 
Commission's rules and therefore are not intended to forecast possible 
future appreciation of the stock price of the Company. As shown in the 0% 
column above, no gain to the named officers or all employees is possible 
without appreciation in the price of the Company's Common Stock, which 
will benefit all shareowners. For example, in order for any of the named 
officers to realize the potential values set forth in the 5% and 10% 
columns in the table above with respect to the exercise price of $27.80 
(the fair market value on the date of the grant), the price per share of 
the Company's Class A Common Stock would be approximately $45.28 and 
$72.11, respectively, as of the expiration date of their options.

                RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS 
                                PROPOSAL 2 

      The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed the firm of 
Price Waterhouse as independent accountants of the Company for the current 
fiscal year ending January 1, 1995, subject to ratification by the 
stockholders. This firm has served as independent accountants for the 
Company for many years and is considered to be well qualified by the Board 
of Directors. As in prior years, a representative of that firm will be 
present at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a 
statement and to respond to appropriate questions. 

      It is recommended by the Board of Directors that the proposal to 
ratify the appointment of Price Waterhouse as independent accountants for 
the year 1994 be approved. If stockholders fail to approve this proposal, 
the Board will reconsider the appointment of Price Waterhouse as 
independent accountants for the year 1994. Proxies executed and returned 
by stockholders will be voted in accordance with stockholders' 
specifications thereon and where a vote for or against this proposal as 
set forth above is not indicated on the face of the proxy, will be voted 
in favor of the proposal. 

                          STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS 

      Proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the next 
Annual Meeting must be received by the Secretary, Kelly Services, Inc., 
999 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, Michigan 48084, no later than December 9, 
1994. 

                              OTHER MATTERS 

      At the date of this proxy statement the Company knows of no matters, 
other than the matters described herein, that will be presented for 
consideration at the meeting. If any other matters do properly come before 
the meeting, all proxies signed and returned by holders of the Class B 
common stock, if not limited to the contrary, will be voted thereon in 
accordance with the best judgment of the persons voting the proxies. 

      A copy of the Company's printed annual report as of January 2, 1994, 
the close of the Company's latest fiscal year, has been mailed to each 
stockholder of record. The expense of preparing, printing, assembling and 
mailing the accompanying form of proxy and the material used in the 
solicitation of proxies will be paid by the Company. In addition, the 
Company may reimburse brokers or nominees for their expenses in 
transmitting proxies and proxy material to principals. 

      It is important that the proxies be returned promptly. Therefore, 
stockholders are urged to execute and return the enclosed form of proxy in 
the enclosed postage prepaid envelope. 

                                  By Order of the Board of Directors 

                                  Eugene L. Hartwig
