1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the
Company have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X
and do not include all the information and notes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. All
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been made
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of
the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for such
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a
full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 3, 1999 (the 1998
consolidated financial statements).

2. Segment Disclosures
The Company's reportable segments, which are based on the Company's method of
internal reporting, are: (1) U.S. Commercial Staffing, (2) Professional,
Technical and Staffing Alternatives (PTSA) and (3) International. The
following table presents information about the reported operating income of
the Company for the 13-week periods ended April 4, 1999 and March 29, 1998.
Segment data presented is net of intersegment revenues. Asset information by
reportable segment is not presented, since the Company does not produce such
information internally.

3. Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and liabilities
which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Litigation is subject to
many uncertainties, the outcome of individual litigated matters is not
predictable with assurance and it is reasonably possible that some of the
foregoing matters could be decided unfavorably to the Company. Although the
amount of the liability at April 4, 1999 with respect to these matters cannot
be ascertained, the Company believes that any resulting liability will not be
material to the financial statements of the Company at April 4, 1999.

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND

                      ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                           AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Results of Operations:
First Quarter
Sales of services in the first quarter of 1999 were $1.026 billion, an
increase of 6.9% from the same period in 1998. Sales in the U.S. Commercial
Staffing segment grew by 3.7%, while Professional, Technical and Staffing
Alternatives (PTSA) sales grew by 8.7% compared to last year. International
sales grew by 13.9% as compared to the first quarter of 1998.

Cost of services, consisting of payroll and related tax and benefit costs of
employees assigned to customers, increased 7.0% in the first quarter as
compared to the same period in 1998. Direct wage costs have increased from
1998 at a rate somewhat higher than the general inflation rate, due to strong
worldwide demand for labor.

Gross profit of $179.1 million was 6.7% higher than the first quarter of
1998, and gross profit as a percentage of sales was 17.5% in 1999 and 1998.
Although the total company gross profit rate was consistent with last year, a
continued mix shift to larger national account customers reduced the U.S.
Commercial Staffing gross profit rate slightly, which was offset by increases
in gross profit rate in the International segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $153.5 million in the first
quarter, an increase of 7.3% over the same period in 1998. Expenses averaged
15.0% of sales as compared to 14.9% in last year's first quarter. The rate of
growth of these expenses reflects spending for the year 2000 project and
amortization of costs associated with the Company's information technology
programs.

Earnings from operations of $25.6 million were 3.0% greater than the first
quarter of 1998. Interest income (net) of $0.2 million decreased as compared
to the first quarter of 1998 due to lower average cash and short-term
investment balances, primarily as a result of the $76 million utilized in the
fourth quarter of 1998 for the Company's share repurchase program.

Earnings before income taxes were $25.7 million, an increase of .8%, compared
to pretax earnings of $25.5 million for the same period in 1998. The pretax
margin was 2.5% as compared to 2.7% in last year's first quarter, due
primarily to the effect of lower interest income (net) noted above. Income
taxes were 41.0% of pretax income in the first quarters of 1999 and 1998.

Net earnings were $15.2 million in the first quarter of 1999, an increase of
 .8% over the first quarter of 1998. Basic and diluted earnings per share were
$.42 compared to $.39 in the same period last year, a 7.7% increase. The rate
of growth of earnings per share exceeded the rate of growth of net earnings
as a result of the 2.5 million shares repurchased during the fourth quarter
of 1998.

Financial Condition
Assets totaled $993.2 million at April 4, 1999, an increase of 3.0% over the
$964.2 million at January 3, 1999. Working capital decreased $7.7 million
during the three-month period. The current ratio was 1.6 at April 4, 1999 and
1.7 at January 3, 1999.

During the first three months of 1999, net cash from operating activities was
$38.6 million, a decrease of 34.0% over the comparable period in 1998. This
decrease resulted principally from an increase in the accounts receivable
balance and a decrease in the growth of accrued liability balances. The
Company's global days sales outstanding improved to 52 days in 1999, as
compared to 54 days in 1998.

Capital expenditures of $15.2 million in 1999 and $7.0 million in 1998 were
principally for developing new information systems.

The quarterly dividend rate applicable to Class A and Class B shares
outstanding was $.23 per share in the first quarter of 1999. This represents
a 5% increase compared to a dividend rate of $.22 per share in the first
quarter of 1998.

The Company's financial position continues to be strong. This strength will
allow it to continue to aggressively pursue growth opportunities, while
supporting current operations.

Year 2000 Systems Update
The Year 2000 problem is an issue regarding computer programs and
non-information technology systems that use embedded computer chips such as
microcontrollers. Many of these programs are unable to distinguish between a
year that begins with "20" instead of the familiar "19" and therefore could
fail or produce incorrect results.

In 1995, the Company embarked upon a global Year 2000 Project. The project
scope includes hardware, software and embedded chip technology. A formal
Project Office was established with complete executive sponsorship and
funding in February 1997. This initiated a global business system strategy
that included a wide-scale Oracle implementation of business and financial
systems, plus major enhancements to branch automation systems. Included in
these initiatives is the remediation of Year 2000 non-compliant systems.

The Company's State of Readiness
Plans for remediation of Year 2000 non-compliant systems are divided into the
following major initiatives: mainframe, client server, domestic and
international subsidiaries. The common project phases consisted of: inventory
all hardware, software and embedded systems; prioritize systems based on
business criticality; complete a risk assessment based on interviews with
business users and subject matter experts, analysis of date functionality,
and vendor documentation; test and decide to upgrade, replace or retire, as
appropriate; internal certification; and a return to production. As a part of
the risk assessment process, contingency plans will be developed in the event
of system failure. Compuware Corporation was selected to assist in the
inventory remediation and testing process.

The inventory and assessment phase is 100% complete for all business areas.
Remediation and testing is 100% complete for some of the Kelly business
units. Overall completion is approximately 85% when all countries and
business units are considered. The Company was 100% remediated of all
mission-critical customer support systems at year-end 1998. Testing will
continue throughout 1999 with planned completion during the third quarter of
1999. Testing teams are in place for mainframe, client server and
international. The testing process includes a detailed risk assessment to
determine the necessity and scope of testing. In some instances internal
certification is recommended without testing, based on the risk assessment.
This process will ensure resources remain focused on areas of greatest risk.

External communications and readiness assessments have been distributed to
all customers, landlords, vendors, suppliers and facilities for North
America. International communications and assessments were 100% complete at
year-end 1998. Ongoing analysis of responses will determine follow-up action
including additional contingency plans.

The Costs To Address The Company's Year 2000 Issues
The total cost of the Year 2000 project is expected to be at least somewhat
offset by the benefits to be realized by the Company. These include: enhanced
functionality at the branch level; a worldwide inventory of information
technology and systems; a high-level documentation of business processes used
by strategic business units; rationalization and standardization of diverse
information systems; upgrades and standardization of desktop computing;
upgrade of wide area network to remote business units; improved software
quality assurance; and clean-up and documentation of older program code.

Total cost of the Year 2000 remediation project is estimated to be
approximately $21 million. The total amount incurred to date is $11.1
million, of which $1 million was expended in 1997, $8 million in 1998 and
$2.1 million in 1999. Approximately $5.6 million of the total cost has been
incurred for remediation (code remediation, project management compliance and
risk assessment), $3.5 million for testing, and the balance for contingency
development.

The estimated future cost of completing the Year 2000 project is
approximately $9.9 million to be incurred throughout 1999 and early 2000. Of
these future costs the Company estimates approximately $2.4 million will
relate to remediation, $4.5 million for testing and the balance for
contingency activities. Funds for the project are budgeted separately from
other Information Technology initiatives. These costs are being expensed as
an element of Selling, General and Administrative expense and are funded from
cash provided by operations.

The Risks Of The Company's Year 2000 Issues
The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption, or a failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. It is believed the
most significant of risks concern the Year 2000 readiness of third party
customers and suppliers. Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year
2000 problem, resulting in part from the uncertainty of the Year 2000
readiness of third-party suppliers and customers, the Company is unable to
determine at this time whether the consequences of Year 2000 failures will
have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or
financial condition. The Year 2000 Project is expected to significantly
reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about the Year 2000 problem and
through, in particular, the Year 2000 readiness of its internal systems and
processes and its assessment of third-party preparedness.

In general, all reasonable steps have been taken or are in process to ensure
operations will continue without disruption. Additionally, in the event of
circumstances resulting from the failure of a third party, all reasonable
steps will have been taken to ensure appropriate contingency plans exist or
are being developed to minimize the impact of these failures.

Market Risk Sensitive Instruments And Positions
The market risk inherent in the Company's market risk sensitive instruments
and positions is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in foreign
currency exchange rates and interest rates. Foreign currency exchange risk is
mitigated by the availability of the Company's multi-currency line of credit.
This credit facility can be used to borrow in the local currencies that can
effectively hedge the exchange rate risk resulting from foreign currencies
weakening in relation to the U.S. dollar.

The Company's holdings and positions in market risk sensitive instruments do
not subject the Company to material risk exposures.

New Accounting Standards
In the first quarter of 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position
("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal Use." This SOP requires entities to capitalize certain
internal-use software costs once certain criteria are met. Adoption of this
standard did not have a material effect on first quarter earnings.

In the first quarter of 1999, the Company adopted SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the
Costs of Start-Up Activities." This SOP requires start-up activities and
organization costs to be expensed as incurred. Adoption of this standard did
not have a material effect on first quarter earnings.

Forward-Looking Statements
Except for the historical statements and discussions contained herein,
statements contained in this report relate to future events that are subject
to risks and uncertainties, such as: competition, changing market and
economic conditions, currency fluctuations, changes in laws and regulations,
the Company's ability to effectively implement and manage its information
technology programs, including the Year 2000 project, and other factors
discussed in the report and in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Actual results may differ materially from any
projections contained herein.
