                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                               (In thousands)

1. Accounting Policies
   --------------------

   The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Olsten
   Corporation (the "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of
   the Securities and Exchange Commission and, in the opinion of
   management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
   of results of operations, financial position and cash flows for each
   period presented.

2. Long-Term Debt
   ---------------

   Interest expense, net, consists primarily of interest on long-term debt for
   the quarter of $2.1 million in 1995 and $2.3 million in 1994 offset by
   interest income from investments of $1.4 million and $145 thousand,
   respectively.  Interest expense, net, for the six months was $3.5 million
   reduced by interest income of $2.2 million in 1995 and $4.8 million reduced
   by interest income of $531 thousand in 1994.

3. Subsequent Events
   -----------------

   In August, the Company completed the acquisition of IMI Systems, Inc., a
   leading international information technology services company and has
   purchased P.J. Ward Associates, Ltd., a Toronto-based leader in Canadian
   information technology services.

4. Pending Acquisition/Sale of Businesses
   --------------------------------------

   In May, the Company announced the pending acquisition of Nurse's House Call,
   the home health care business of Hooper Holmes, Inc., as well as the sale to
   Hooper Holmes, Inc. of ASB Meditest, Olsten's mobile diagnostic, paramedical
   and occupational health services company.  The transaction is subject to
   approval of the Hooper Holmes shareholders and is anticipated to close in
   the third quarter.

5. Acquisition of Norsk Personal A.S.
   -----------------------------------

   In the second quarter, the Company acquired a 50.1 percent interest in Norsk
   Personal A.S. for $24.8 million.  The transaction was accounted for under
   the purchase method and accordingly, our share of the operating results of
   Norsk Personal A.S. has been included in the consolidated operating results
   since the date of the acquisition.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
        -----------------------------------------------------------------
         Results of Operations.
        -----------------------

Results of Operations
----------------------

Net income for the second quarter increased 27.7% to $21 million, or $.50
per share, compared to $16.4 million or $.39 per share.  Net income for the
first six months of 1995 was $39.7 million, or $.94 per share, a 29%
increase over the $30.8 million or $.74 per share reported in 1994.  The
increases over 1994 resulted from increased profit growth in each of our
businesses, as we capitalized on continuing strong demand for Staffing 
Services and our strategic positioning of HealthCare Services.

Revenues increased $38.8 million or 6.9% to $601.7 million for the second
quarter, as compared to $562.9 million for last year's second quarter and 
$76.8 million or 7% to $1.2 billion for the first six months of 1995.  
Staffing Services reported increased revenues of 20% for the second quarter
and 23% for the six months of 1995, reflecting gains in volume and bill rates,
as major corporate clients utilized our services on an increasing basis.  As
anticipated, revenues for HealthCare Services declined 6% for the second
quarter and 7% for the first half of 1995 compared to last year.  This decline
primarily results from the transfer of Medicare business from company owned to
a managed operation under the Hospital Contract Program and the sale of
HealthCare Staff Resources in March 1995.

Cost of services increased $20.1 million, or 5%, to $419.5 million for the
second quarter and $47.2 million or 6.1% to $822.1 million for the six months
of 1995 due primarily to the growth in revenues.  As a percentage of revenues,
such expenses decreased 1.2% to 69.7% for the quarter and .6% to 69.8% for the
six months of 1995.  Gross profits as a percentage of revenues increased to
30.3% for the quarter from 29.1% for last year's second quarter and increased
to 30.2% from 29.6% for last year's six months primarily as a result of the
growth in revenues, reduced workers' compensation and payroll tax costs and the
additional management fees generated under the Hospital Contract Program.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $11.8 million or 8.9% to
$145 million for the second quarter and $17.3 million, or 6.5%, to $285.2 
million for the six months.  As a percentage of revenues, such expenses
increased .4% to 24.1% for the second quarter resulting from market expansion
costs and higher depreciation expense related to equipment and computer systems
installed.  For the six months, selling, general and administrative expenses as
a percentage of revenues were essentially flat.

Net interest expense was $740 thousand and $2.1 million for the second
quarters of 1995 and 1994, respectively, and $1.4 million as compared to 
$4.3 million the for six month periods in 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Net
interest primarily reflects borrowing costs on long-term debt offset by
interest income on investments.  The decrease resulted from repayment of debt
in the second quarter of 1994 and increased income on investments from improved
concentration and investment of operating cash.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
--------------------------------

Working capital at July 2, 1995, including $60.6 million in cash, was $284.1 
million.  The Company has temporarily invested available funds primarily in
short-term, interest-bearing investments.  The Company has a revolving credit
agreement with six banks for up to $200 million in borrowings and letters of
credit.  At July 2, 1995, there were no borrowings and $61 million in standby
letters of credit outstanding.  The Company believes that its levels of 
working capital and liquidity and its available sources of funds are 
sufficient to support present operations and to continue to fund future 
growth and business opportunities as the Company increases its scope of
services.
