                                    PART I

ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

     (a)  General Development of Business.  Registrant, a successor to the 
business established by William R. Kelly in 1946, was incorporated under the 
laws of Delaware on August 27, 1952.  Throughout its existence, registrant has 
been engaged in the temporary help service business.  During the last fiscal 
year, registrant continued to provide temporary help services and other 
staffing and human resources services to a diversified group of customers.

     (b)  Financial Information about Industry Segments.  Registrant operates 
in a single industry segment of providing temporary help services.  The 
financial information concerning registrant is included in Item 8 in Part II of 
this filing.

     (c)  Narrative Description of Business.

          (i)   Principal Services Rendered.  Registrant, and its subsidiaries, 
which are service organizations, provide temporary office clerical, marketing, 
professional, technical, light industrial, home care services (to those who 
need help with their daily living needs and personal care), management services 
and other business services to a diversified group of customers through offices 
located in major cities of the  United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, 
Denmark, France, Luxembourg (acquired subsequent to December 31, 1995), The 
Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico. These 
services are generally furnished under the name of Kelly Temporary Services, 
with the following specific services provided:  office clerical, marketing, 
professional, technical, semi-skilled light industrial and management services. 
Staff leasing services are provided under the name of Your Staff, a wholly 
owned subsidiary of the registrant.  Home care services to those who need help 
with their daily living needs and personal care are furnished under the name of 
Kelly Assisted Living Services, Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of 
registrant.  Legal staffing services are provided under the name of The Wallace 
Law Registry, a wholly owned subsidary of the registrant.  Registrant performs 
these services through its temporary employees by assigning them to work on the 
premises of registrant's customers.

     The temporary services furnished by registrant afford economies and 
flexibility in meeting uneven or peak work loads caused by such predictable 
factors as vacations, inventories, month-end activities, special projects or 
new promotions and such non-predictable factors as illnesses or emergencies.  
When work peaks occur which cannot be handled by the customer's normal staff, 
the customer can temporarily supplement regular personnel by the use of 
registrant's services.  The cost and inconvenience to the customer of hiring 
additional employees, including advertising, interviewing, screening, testing 
and training are eliminated.  Also, recordkeeping is simplified because the 
customer pays an hourly rate, based on hours of service furnished by 
registrant.

     Registrant serves a wide cross-section of customers from industry, 
commerce, the professions, government, and individuals.  During recent years 
approximately 215,000 customers, including the largest corporations in the 
world, use the registrant's services.  There have been no significant

                                    <PAGE>
                                      -3-


changes in the services rendered or in the markets or methods of distribution 
since the beginning of registrant's fiscal year.

     Registrant operates through approximately 1,300 domestic and foreign 
offices located in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico; and
Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Denmark, France, Luxembourg (acquired 
subsequent to December 31, 1995), The Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, 
Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico.  Each office provides the services of one 
or more of the divisions or subsidiaries. At fiscal year-end 1995 all of the 
offices were operated directly by the registrant, as the remaining licensed 
branches were converted to direct operated branches in February 1995.

     (ii)   New Services.  There are no new industry segments that the 
registrant is planning to enter or new service areas that will require a 
material investment of assets.

     (iii)  Raw Materials.  Registrant is involved in a service business and 
raw materials are nonexistent in the business.

     (iv)   Service Marks.  Registrant is the owner of several service marks, 
which are registered with the United States Patent and Trade Mark Office and in 
a number of foreign countries.  The most significant marks are "Kelly" and 
"Kelly Girl", which have indeterminable duration.

     (v)    Seasonal Business Implications.  Registrant's business is not 
seasonal.

     (vi)   Working Capital.  Registrant believes there are no unusual or 
special working capital requirements in the temporary help industry.

     (vii)  Customers.   The business of registrant and its subsidiaries is not 
dependent upon either a single customer or a limited number of customers.

     (viii) Backlog.  Backlog of orders is not material to the business of 
registrant.

     (ix)   Government Contracts.  Although registrant conducts business under 
various government contracts, that portion of registrant's business is not 
significant.

     (x)    Competition.  Registrant is one of the largest suppliers of 
temporary help services in the United States.  Several companies which operate 
nationally offer services competitive to those provided by registrant, and a 
large number of organizations operating regionally or locally compete in 
varying degrees in different localities where registrant operates branch 
offices.  The most significant competitive factors are price and service to 
customers in the form of timely, efficient and reliable temporary help.

     (xi)   Research Activities.  Registrant's expenditure for research and the 
number of people involved are not material.

     (xii)  Environmental Matters.  Registrant is involved in a service 
business and is not affected by federal, state and local provisions regulating 
the discharge of materials into the environment.

                                    <PAGE>
                                      -4-


     (xiii) Employees.  Registrant and subsidiaries employ on a full time basis 
approximately 1,000 persons at its headquarters in Troy, Michigan, and 
approximately 4,600 persons in branch offices operated directly by registrant.  
Registrant employed in the last fiscal year 655,000 men and women for temporary 
periods.  As the employer, registrant is responsible for and pays Social 
Security and Medicare taxes, workers' compensation, federal and state 
unemployment compensation taxes, liability insurance and other similar costs, 
and is responsible for payroll deductions of Social Security, Medicare and 
income taxes.  Although the work may be done in the office of the registrant's 
customer, registrant remains the employer of its temporary employees with 
responsibility for their assignment and reassignment.

     (d)  Foreign Operations.  For information regarding sales, earnings or 
loss from operations and identifiable assets by domestic and foreign 
operations, reference is made to the information presented in the Summary of 
Significant Accounting Policies note to the consolidated financial statements 
presented in Item 8 in Part II of this report.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.

     Registrant owns the premises in Troy, Michigan, from which its 
headquarters, subsidiaries and divisional offices are presently operated.  
Registrant purchased the original headquarters building in Troy, Michigan, in 
1977 and has expanded operations into an adjacent building that was purchased 
in 1991.  The combined floor space for the headquarters complex approximates 
206,000 square feet, plus leased space nearby of 27,000 square feet.  The 
buildings are in good condition, are considered to be adequate for the uses to 
which they are being put and are in regular use.  In addition, registrant owns 
vacant land in Troy and northern Oakland County, Michigan, for future 
expansion.  Registrant's branch offices are conducted from premises which are 
leased. A majority of the leases are for fixed terms, from one to five years.  
Registrant owns virtually all office furniture and equipment used in its 
headquarters building and branch offices.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
            
     In 1992 the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proposed the imposition of an 
accumulated earnings tax totaling $49 million for 1988, 1989 and 1990 in 
connection with an audit of the Company's consolidated federal tax liability.  
The proposed amount has been subsequently reduced to $6.5 million.  The Company 
believes there is no factual or legal basis for the imposition of any 
accumulated earnings tax and that the Company is fully justified in making 
provision to meet the present and future needs of its expanding business 
operations.  The Company is defending its position through the IRS appeal 
process and into the courts if necessary.  In the opinion of the Company, the 
ultimate resolution of this issue will not materially affect its financial 
statements.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

     There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders in the 
fourth quarter of 1995.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Results of Operations

1995 versus 1994

     Sales reached a record level of $2.69 billion in 1995, an increase of 14% 
over 1994.  International sales grew most rapidly, accounting for 19% of total 
company sales, up from 15% in 1994.

     Cost of services, representing payroll and related taxes and benefits for 
temporary employees, increased 13%.  Increases in pay rates, payroll taxes and 
other direct costs accounted for these changes.  Overall, the percentage of 
gross profit to sales increased to 20.1% in 1995 from 19.6% in 1994.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 18% over 1994.  As 
a percentage of sales, expenses increased to 16.2%, up from 15.7% in 1994.  
The increase principally reflects the opening of new offices, the effect of 
acquired companies for full years and normal growth.
 
      Earnings from operations in 1995 totaled just over $105 million, a new 
record for the Company, and an increase of 15% over 1994.  These earnings were 
3.9% of sales, the same as in 1994.

                                      -7-


     Interest income increased to $8.2 million in 1995 which was 22% higher 
than the $6.7 million earned in 1994.  The increase resulted from higher rates 
of return on investments.

     Earnings before income taxes were a record $113.3 million, an increase of 
15% over 1994.  Pre-tax margins as a percentage of sales were 4.2% in both 
years.  Income taxes increased 17% over 1994 with an effective tax rate of 
38.7% of pre-tax income.  The current tax rate rose primarily as a result of 
higher state and local taxes and higher foreign tax rates. 

     Net earnings were $69.5 million in 1995, 14% higher than the 1994 results 
of $61.1 million.  The rate of return on sales was 2.6% in both 1995 and 1994.  
Earnings per share were $1.83, a 14% increase over the $1.61 per share earned 
in 1994. 

1994 versus 1993

     Sales reached a record level of $2.36 billion in 1994, an increase of 21% 
over 1993. Increases in domestic sales, acquisitions completed during the 
year, and the strengthening of worldwide economies all contributed to this 
growth.

     Cost of services, representing payroll and related taxes and benefits for 
temporary employees, increased 21%.  Strong sales volume and increases in pay 
rates and payroll taxes accounted for this change.  Gross profit, as a percent 
of sales, rose from 19.5% in 1993 to 19.6% in 1994.  Excluding the effect of 
our employee leasing business acquired in 1994, gross profit averaged 20.1% 
during 1994.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 17% during 1994.  This 
increase principally reflected costs added by acquired companies, opening of 
new offices and normal growth.  As a percent of sales, expenses declined from 
16.2% to 15.7% in 1994.  Excluding the effects of the employee leasing 
business (with its inherently lower cost structure), the expense to sales 
relationship was 16.1% in 1994.  Earnings from operations in 1994 totaled 
approximately $92 million, an increase of 44% over 1993.

     Interest income for 1994 was $6.7 million, down 3.6% from the 1993 level 
of $7.0 million.  The reduction in the interest rates accounted for the slight 
decline in interest income during the year.

     Earnings before taxes were $98.5 million, an increase of 39%.  Pretax 
margins were 4.2% in 1994, improved from 3.6% in 1993.  Income taxes increased 
42% over 1993, with an effective tax rate of 38.0%, compared to a 37.1% rate 
in 1993.  The current year tax rate rose primarily as a result of the 
reduction in tax exempt interest income and the absence in 1994 of a credit 
from revaluing deferred taxes due to the 1% increase in the U.S. statutory 
corporate tax rate in 1993.

     Net earnings were $61.1 million in 1994, 37% above the 1993 results of 
$44.6 million.  The rate of return on sales was 2.6%, up from the 1993 return 
of 2.3%.  Earnings per share were $1.61 in 1994 and $1.18 in 1993.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During 1995, capital expenditures were made primarily for new office 
equipment, expansion of the branch office network in the U.S. and Europe, 
business acquisitions and new customer services, including the new "PinPoint" 
software training product. The foregoing capital expenditures, along with cash 
dividends, were financed internally with $29 million from operating activities 
and a reduction in short-term investments. In 1994 and 1993, net cash flows 
from operating activities of $69 million and $46 million, respectively, were 
directed primarily toward purchases of equipment, dividend payments and the 
acquisition of businesses.

     The Company's working capital remained unchanged from 1994 at $316 
million.  The current ratio averaged 2.3 in 1995, 2.5 in 1994 and 2.9 in 1993.  
The current ratios have declined over this period due principally to the use 
of current assets to finance continued business expansion including the 
acquistion of businesses and investment in additional computing capability in 
branch offices.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors, 
Kelly Services, Inc.


In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as listed in 
Item 14(a) 1 and 2 of this Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, 
the financial position of Kelly Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 
31, 1995, January 1, 1995 and January 2, 1994, and the results of their 
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an 
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our 
audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable 
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material 
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence 
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing 
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, 
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that 
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

The three most recent years ended on December 31, 1995 (1995), January 1, 
1995 (1994) and January 2, 1994 (1993).

     The Company operates in the single industry segment of providing 
temporary help services to a diversified group of customers.

     The financial statements consolidate the accounts and operations of the 
Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, after 
elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.  

     The accounts of the Company's foreign operations are translated at 
appropriate rates of exchange. Foreign operations are conducted in Canada, 
United Kingdom, Ireland, Denmark, France, Luxembourg (acquired subsequent to 
December 31, 1995), The Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Australia, New 
Zealand and Mexico.  Domestic and foreign sales, earnings or loss from 
operations and identifiable assets were as follows:

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues 
and expenses.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 
current presentation.

CURRENT ASSETS
     Cash and equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market.  
Included are highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three 
months or less.

     Short-term investments are debt instruments having original maturities 
of more than three months.  Of these investments, federal, state and local 
government obligations comprised approximately 90% in 1995 and 80% in 1994.  
Short-term investments due within one year totaled $67,000 in 1995 and 
$119,000 in 1994. The balance is due within two years and is available for 
sale.  The difference between carrying amounts and market was not material at 
December 31, 1995 and January 1, 1995.

     Cash flows from short-term investments for 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as 
follows:

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
     Properties are stated at cost and include expenditures for additions and 
major improvements.  Fully depreciated assets are eliminated from the 
accounts.  For financial reporting purposes, assets are depreciated over 
their estimated useful lives, principally by the straight-line method.

          (In thousands of dollars except share and per share items)

     The Company conducts its field operations primarily from leased 
facilities.  The following are future minimum lease commitments for the 
five-year period commencing in 1996:  $29,700, $23,800, $17,400, $11,900 and 
$8,800.  Lease expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 amounted to $29,800, $26,700 
and $24,900, respectively.

INTANGIBLES AND OTHER ASSETS
     Intangibles and other assets include goodwill of $55,400, $32,000 and 
$14,400  at year-ends 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  Goodwill, which 
represents the excess of cost over net assets of businesses acquired, is 
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods not exceeding 40 years.  
Accumulated amortization at 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $3,100, $1,900 and 
$1,200, respectively.

     The Company periodically reviews the specific carrying amounts of 
goodwill and has determined that no impairments have occurred.  Such reviews 
are based on various analyses including profitability projections and 
management's judgment of the related business' ability to achieve sufficient 
profitability. 

     Other assets include deposits and cash values of life insurance on the 
lives of officers and key employees.

CAPITALIZATION AND STOCK SPLITS
     The authorized capital stock of the Company is 100,000,000 shares of 
Class A common stock and 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock.  Class A 
shares have no voting rights and are not convertible.  Class B shares have 
voting rights and are convertible into Class A shares on a share-for-share 
basis at any time.  Both classes of stock have identical rights in the event 
of liquidation.

     In May 1993, the Board of Directors declared a five-for-four split of 
the Class A and Class B common stock.  At the same time, the stockholders 
approved an increase in the number of authorized Class A shares to 
100,000,000, from 50,000,000.  All per share and share data in the 
accompanying financial statements and notes have been restated to give effect 
to stock splits.

     Earnings per share are based on the average number of Class A and Class 
B common shares outstanding during the year.

PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN
     In May 1992, the stockholders approved the Performance Incentive Plan 
(the "Plan") to replace the Incentive Stock Option Plan which expired earlier 
that year.  Under the Plan, stock options (both incentive and nonqualified),  
Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs), restricted awards, and performance awards 
may be granted to key employees, utilizing the Company's Class A stock.  
Stock options may not be granted at prices less than the fair market value on 
the date of grant, nor for a term to exceed 10 years.

     The Plan provides that the maximum number of shares available for grants 
is five percent of the outstanding Class A stock, adjusted for Plan activity 
over the preceding five years.

     At the end of 1995, there were 910,674 shares available for future 
grants.

     During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 
123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  This statement sets forth 
standards for accounting for stock-based compensation or allows companies to 
continue to account for stock-based compensation under the requirements of 
Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 and make additional 
disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.  It is the Company's 
intention to continue to account for stock-based compensation in accordance 
with APB Opinion No. 25 and provide additional disclosure in the notes to the 
financial statements beginning in 1996.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS
     The Company provides a qualified defined contribution plan covering 
substantially all full-time employees, except officers and certain other 
management employees.  Upon approval by the Board of Directors, a 
contribution based on eligible wages is funded annually.  The plan offers a 
savings feature with Company matching contributions.  Assets of this plan are 
held by an independent trustee for the sole benefit of participating 
employees.

     A nonqualified defined contribution plan is provided for officers and 
certain other management employees.  Upon approval by the Board of Directors, 
a contribution based on eligible wages is set aside annually.  This plan also 
includes provisions for salary deferrals and Company matching contributions.

     The total amounts provided for retirement benefits amounted to $4,440 in 
1995, $3,916 in 1994 and $3,430 in 1993.

INCOME TAXES
     The following summarizes the differences between income taxes for 
financial reporting purposes and the United States statutory tax rate for the 
years 1995, 1994 and 1993.

     Deferred taxes are related to the effect of temporary differences between 
financial and tax reporting.  These differences are related principally to 
depreciation, benefit plan costs, provisions for workers' compensation claims, 
full-time and temporary employee vacation costs and provisions for doubtful 
accounts.

     In 1992 the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proposed the imposition of an 
accumulated earnings tax totaling $49 million for 1988, 1989 and 1990 in 
connection with an audit of the Company's consolidated federal tax liability.  
The proposed amount has been subsequently reduced to $6.5 million.  The 
Company believes there is no factual or legal basis for the imposition of any 
accumulated earnings tax and that the Company is fully justified in making 
provision to meet the present and future needs of its expanding business 
operations.  The Company is defending its position through the IRS appeal 
process and into the courts if necessary.  In the opinion of the Company, the 
ultimate resolution of this issue will not materially affect its financial 
statements.

     The Company paid income taxes of $52,900 in 1995, $43,300 in 1994 and 
$34,800 in 1993.
