             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 July 31, 1996
                                  (unaudited)
1.  Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the
Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC).  This Report on Form 10-Q should be read
in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended October 31, 1995, included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders, and the Company's
filings for the two previous quarters of fiscal year 1996.  Certain
information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC
rules and regulations.  The information reflects all normal and
recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the
Company and its results of operations for the interim periods set
forth herein.  The results for the three months and nine months
ended July 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.  The financial statements include
the consolidated financial position, operations and cash flows for
Personnel Management, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
hereafter referred as "the Company".  The Company reported in its
1995 Annual Report to Shareholders restated results of operations
for each of its 1995 quarterly periods. The results for the three
and nine month periods ended July 31, 1995 in this report are
restated on the basis of the results that have been included in an
amendment on Form 10-QSB\A previously filed with the SEC.

2.  Per Share Disclosures
Per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the respective periods (retroactively
adjusted to give effect to subsequent stock dividends).  Stock
options and warrants are considered common stock equivalents and are
included in the computation of the number of outstanding shares
using the treasury stock method, unless anti-dilutive.

3. Shareholders' Equity
On November 1, 1995, options to purchase 29,069 shares with an
exercise price of $7.73 per share were exercised.  Proceeds of
$224,625 were received by the Company.

On April 15, 1996, the Company extended a loan to an officer of the
Company in the amount of $123,352 for the purpose of paying income
taxes in connection with the officer's December 29, 1994 exercise of
non-qualified stock options to purchase 49,486 shares of common
stock of the Company.  The loan bears interest at the prime rate
which was 8.5% as of the date of the loan, and is secured by 24,670
shares of common stock of the Company.  The loan is reflected as a
deduction from common stock and interest is credited to income as it
accrues.  On June 6, 1996, $61,676 of the loan was repaid by the
officer.

4. Acquisitions
The Company acquired the assets of a temporary services firm in
Atlanta, Georgia, with one office and annual revenues of
approximately $2,000,000 on November 13, 1995.  The business was
acquired for approximately $600,000, plus 42% of future income
before taxes and other adjustments derived from the areas served by
the business through October 2000.  The business operations acquired
in Georgia provide mostly temporary clerical services.<PAGE>
<PAGE>8
On February 5, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of a temporary
services firm in northeastern Florida with annual revenues of
approximately $4,700,000.  The business was acquired for
approximately $250,000, plus 71% of future income before taxes and
other adjustments derived from one significant customer served by
the business through January 2001.  The business in northeastern
Florida provides temporary clerical and warehousing services to its
customers.


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

The following should be read in conjunction with "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report to
Shareholders and the comparable discussion and analysis included in
the Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the first and
second quarters of the 1996 fiscal year.

SELECTED INCOME STATEMENT COMPARISONS

REVENUES.  For the three months ended July 31, 1996, revenues
increased by $2,369,644 or 16.0% compared to the 1995 period, to
$17,144,732.  The increase was a result of sales growth in the
Tampa, Florida area, and the acquisition of temporary staffing
companies in Atlanta, Georgia during November 1995, and
Jacksonville, Florida during February 1996.  Revenues from the
Company's Indiana customer base for the third quarter, which
accounted for approximately 72% of consolidated revenues, remained
constant compared to the previous year period.

For the nine months ended July 31, 1996, revenues increased
$2,110,667 or 4.6% compared to the 1995 period, to $47,563,110. 
This increase was due entirely to revenues from the Company's
southeastern U.S. operations, which accounted for approximately 27%
of consolidated revenues for the nine month period.  As noted above,
the Company acquired two temporary staffing companies in the
southeastern U.S. in the current fiscal year and experienced a 17%
increase in revenues from its Tampa, Florida operations.  Revenues
from the Company's Indiana customer base for the nine months
decreased 10.1% compared to the previous year period as a result of
reduced demand and competitive pressures.  This decrease in revenue
from the Company's Indiana customer base is more thoroughly
discussed in the Company's previous 10-Q and 10-KSB filings.

COST OF SERVICES.  Cost of services for the three months ended July
31, 1996 increased $1,901,925 or 16.2% compared to the 1995 period,
to $13,669,668.  This increase was a result of increased volume of
services to clients.  Cost of services as a percentage of revenues
for the quarter was 79.7% compared to 79.6% in the prior year
period.

Cost of services for the nine months ended July 31, 1996 increased
$1,342,392 or 3.7% compared to the 1995 period, to $37,879,325. 
This increase was a result of increased volume of services to
clients.  As a percentage of revenues, cost of services improved
from 80.4% in 1995 to 79.6% in 1996 due primarily to reduced
workers' compensation costs.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 9
SELLING EXPENSES.  Selling expenses for the three months ended July
31, 1996 decreased $19,772 or 17.2% compared to the previous year
period due primarily to a smaller sales force in the Company's
Indiana operations during the current fiscal year.  Selling expenses
as a percentage of revenues decreased from 0.8% in the prior year
quarter to 0.6% in the current year quarter.

Selling expenses for the nine months ended July 31, 1996 increased
$1,449 or 0.5% compared to the previous year period.  Selling
expenses for the nine months as a percentage of revenues were 0.7%
in both the current and prior year periods.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative
expenses for the three months ended July 31, 1996 increased $246,402
or 10.1% compared to the 1995 period, to $2,690,193.  This increase
was due primarily to the G&A expenses associated with the temporary
staffing companies in Atlanta and Jacksonville purchased by the
Company in the current fiscal year.  Excluding increased bad debt
expenses over the previous year period of $175,800, G&A expenses
related to the Indiana and Tampa operations decreased $161,800. 
This decrease was a result of the Company's ongoing expense
reduction program.  Credit policies and procedures have been
strengthened to address the credit problems experienced by the
Company in the current fiscal year.  As a percentage of revenues,
G&A expenses for the quarter decreased from 16.5% in the 1995 fiscal
year to 15.7% in the current fiscal year.

G&A expenses for the nine months ended July 31, 1996 increased
$413,036 or 5.7% compared to the prior year period due entirely to
the expenses associated with the new businesses acquired by the
Company in the current fiscal year.  G&A expenses for the Indiana
and Tampa operations decreased approximately $139,000 primarily as
a result of the Company's ongoing expense reduction program. 
Partially offsetting this decrease in G&A expenses for the Indiana
and Tampa operations were higher professional fees and bad debt
expense of approximately $88,000 and $333,000, respectively,
compared to the prior year period.  Additional professional fees
were incurred for nonrecurring services related to the previous
year-end financial disclosures.  As a percentage of revenues, G&A
expenses for the nine months increased from 16.1% in the 1995 fiscal
year to 16.2% in the current fiscal year.

AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL.  Goodwill represents the unamortized cost
in excess of fair value of net assets acquired and is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.  Goodwill
amortization for the three and nine month periods ended July 31,
1996 increased 29.7% and 24.1%, respectively, compared to the 1995
periods.  These increases were a result of the amortization of
goodwill related to the two businesses acquired in the current
fiscal year and the amortization of payments of additional purchase
price to the prior owners of acquired businesses under the earnout
provisions of the acquisition agreements.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET.  Interest expense, net for the three and nine
months ended July 31, 1996 compared to the prior year periods
decreased $12,978 or 17.6% and $35,077 or 15.1%, respectively, due
to increased interest income on outstanding notes receivable.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 10
INCOME TAXES.  Income tax expense for the three and nine months
ended July 31, 1996 increased 95.4% and 40.4%, respectively,
compared to the prior year period as a result of the increases in
net income before income taxes and an increase in the Company's
effective income tax rate. The effective income tax rate increased
from 44% to approximately 48% for the current fiscal year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended
July 31, 1996 was $1,847,839 which resulted primarily from net
income before depreciation and amortization, and an increase in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities outstanding.

Net cash used by investing activities during the nine months ended
July 31, 1996 was $1,491,206 due to the acquisitions of Temporaries
of Atlanta, Inc. in November 1995 and Progressive Personnel II, Inc.
in February 1996, and payments of additional purchase price to
owners of previously acquired businesses under the earnout
provisions of the acquisition agreements.


Net cash used by financing activities for the nine months ended July
31, 1996 was $360,602 due primarily to repayments on the outstanding
bank credit facility.

Management believes that cash provided by operations, augmented by
borrowings for working capital purposes under the bank credit
facility, will be adequate to satisfy the Company's operating cash
requirements during fiscal 1996.  Due to the relatively short
maturity of the Company's bank credit facility in February 1997, the
Company is considering seeking a new credit facility during fiscal
1996 or prior to the maturity of the existing credit facility.  The
Company is engaged in discussions with banks and financial
intermediaries looking toward such a financing transaction.  There
is no assurance that such financing would be available to the
Company, if sought, or that such financing, even if available, would
carry terms that the shareholders of the Company would find
attractive.  Since the existing bank credit facility will mature
within a twelve month period, the amount outstanding as of July 31,
1996 has been reclassed on the balance sheet from a noncurrent to a
current liability.

                 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made
and entered into the 15th day of July, 1996, by and
between PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT, INC., an Indiana
corporation (the "Corporation"), and GARY F. HENTSCHEL
(the "Executive").

                      WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Executive is being employed as the
Chief Operating Officer of the Corporation and will be an
integral part of its management; and

     WHEREAS, concurrently herewith the Corporation and
the Executive are executing in separate instruments a
Noncompetition and Confidentiality Agreement and a Change
of Control Severance Benefits Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
covenants and promises contained herein and other
valuable consideration, including services to be
performed by the Executive and compensation and benefits
to be paid and provided by the Corporation, the parties
hereby agree as follows:

     1.   Effective Date.  This Agreement shall be
effective July 15, 1996 (the "Effective Date").  Prior to
the Effective Date either party shall have the option to
terminate and cancel without obligation this Agreement
and the Noncompetition and Confidentiality Agreement and
Change of Control Severance Benefits Agreement, both of
even date herewith.

     2.   Employment.  The Corporation hereby agrees to
employ the Executive, and the Executive hereby agrees to
be employed by the Corporation, on a full-time basis upon
and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     3.   Term and Termination.  The Executive's
employment hereunder shall be on an at-will basis,
terminable at any time with or without cause by either
party.  In the event the Executive terminates the
Executive's employment with the Corporation, the
Executive agrees to give notice of such termination to
the Corporation as far in advance of such termination as
is reasonably possible under the circumstances (up to 60
days' advance notice).

<PAGE>
<PAGE>2
     4.   Compensation.  For all services rendered by the
Executive in any capacity to or for the Corporation
during the Executive's employment by the Corporation,
including, without limitation, services as an executive
officer, director, employee or member of any committee of
the Corporation or of any subsidiary, division or
affiliate of the Corporation (including the Corporation,
all such subsidiaries, divisions and affiliates are
referred to individually as a "PMI Company" and
collectively as the "PMI Companies"), the Executive shall
be paid as compensation (including compensation paid by
any of the PMI Companies):

          (a)  a base salary, payable not less often
     than monthly, and such increases or decreases in
     such salary, if any, in an amount as shall be
     determined from time to time by the Board of
     Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") or any
     authorized committee of the Board and communicated
     to the Executive;

          (b)  such bonuses and other cash incentive
     awards as shall be awarded from time to time by the
     Board or any authorized committee of the Board; and

          (c)  such other compensation and/or benefits
     as the Board or any authorized committee of the
     Board may grant or make available to the Executive
     from time to time.

If the Executive's employment with the Corporation is
terminated, the Executive's monthly (or other payroll
period) salary shall be prorated to reflect the
percentage of the payroll period for which the Executive
was employed by the Corporation.

     5.   Duties of Loyalty.  The Executive shall perform
such duties and responsibilities as may from time to time
be assigned or delegated to him by the President of the
Corporation, the Board or any authorized committee of the
Board.  The Executive shall not engage during the
Executive's employment with the Corporation in any
activity, employment or business venture, directly or
indirectly, whether or not for remuneration, that might
reasonably be expected to be detrimental to any of the
PMI Companies, conflict with the Executive's commitment
and loyalty to the PMI Companies, compete with any of the
PMI Companies, result in a conflict of interest with any
of the PMI Companies, or adversely affect the proper
discharge of the Executive's duties or responsibilities
to any of the PMI Companies.  

<PAGE>
<PAGE>3
     6.   Severance Benefits. 

          (a)  Upon termination of the Executive's
     employment with the Corporation for any reason or
     under any circumstance other than on account of the
     death or "misconduct" (as defined in Section 6(d)
     hereof) of the Executive, the Corporation shall pay
     the Executive in cash an amount equal to one
     month's base salary then in effect for the
     Executive.  Except for the additional severance
     compensation and/or benefits, if any, granted by
     the Corporation pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof,
     the severance benefits provided for by this Section
     6(a) shall constitute the entire obligation of the
     Corporation for the payment of severance
     compensation or benefits to the Executive under
     this Agreement. 

          (b)  Upon termination of the Executive's
     employment with the Corporation for any reason or
     under any circumstance other than on account of the
     death or "misconduct" (as defined in Section 6(d)
     hereof) of the Executive, the Board, or an
     authorized committee of the Board, shall consider
     and make a determination as to whether, under the
     circumstances, severance compensation and/or
     benefits in addition to the severance benefits
     granted in Section 6(a) should be awarded to the
     Executive.  The Corporation shall be under no
     obligation to award any such additional severance
     compensation and/or benefits and the determination
     of whether to award such additional severance
     compensation and/or benefits shall be in the sole
     discretion of the Board or such committee.

          (c)  Nothing in this Agreement shall be
     construed as affecting the Executive's right to
     severance compensation or benefits under  any other
     agreements between the Corporation and the
     Executive.

          (d)  For purposes of this Agreement,
     "misconduct" means:
               
               (i)  the failure of the Executive to
          substantially perform any of the Executive's
          significant duties or responsibilities in
          connection with the Executive's employment
          (other than any such failure resulting from
          the Executive's incapacity due to physical or
          mental illness); or
<PAGE>
<PAGE>4
               (ii) any act that constitutes on the part
          of the Executive common law fraud or
          dishonesty regardless of whether such fraud or
          dishonesty resulted in, or was intended to
          result in, a benefit to the Executive at the
          expense of the Corporation; or

               (iii)     the conviction of the Executive
          of, or the plea by the Executive of nolo
          contendere to, a felony or a crime involving
          moral turpitude; or

               (iv) any violation by the Executive in
          any material respect of any of the
          Corporation's policies or of any term or
          provision of any employment or other agreement
          between the Executive and the Corporation; or

               (v)  the Executive's unexcused total
          abandonment or neglect of the Executive's
          duties and responsibilities in connection with
          the Executive's employment with the
          Corporation (other than absences due to
          illness, physical or mental incapacity,
          vacations, or other excused absences) for a
          continuous period of ten working days.

          (e)  The Corporation shall withhold from the
     severance benefits granted in Section 6(a) (and any
     discretionary severance compensation and/or

<PAGE>1
                  CHANGE OF CONTROL
            SEVERANCE BENEFITS AGREEMENT

     THIS CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE BENEFITS AGREEMENT
(this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of the
15th day of July 1996, by and between PERSONNEL
MANAGEMENT, INC., an Indiana corporation (the
"Corporation"), and GARY F. HENTSCHEL (the "Executive"). 

                     WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Executive and the Corporation have
entered into an Employment Agreement dated of even date
herewith; and

     WHEREAS, the Executive and the Corporation have
agreed for their mutual benefit to provide certain
severance benefits to the Executive that will be payable
by the Corporation if the Executive's employment with the
Corporation is terminated under certain circumstances;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing,
the mutual covenants and promises contained herein and
other valuable consideration, including services to be
performed by the Executive, it is hereby agreed by and
between the parties as follows:

     Section 1.    Effect; Effective Date.  This
Agreement shall be effective July 15, 1996.  Anything in
this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof shall be
operative unless and until there has been a Change of
Control of the Corporation (as "Change of Control of the
Corporation" is defined in Section 7 of this Agreement). 
Upon a Change of Control of the Corporation this
Agreement shall become operative immediately.

     Section 2.    Employment.  This Agreement shall not
be construed as creating a contract of employment between
the Executive and the Corporation.  The Executive is,
however, employed by the Corporation at the time this
Agreement is executed, and the Executive and the
Corporation have executed an Employment Agreement of even
date herewith with respect to such employment.

     Section 3.    Obligation to Provide Severance
Entitlement.  If the Executive's employment with the
Corporation is terminated under any circumstances other
than a Disqualifying Termination (as defined in Section
8 of this Agreement) and if such termination of
employment occurs concurrently with or within three
months immediately preceding or twenty-four months<PAGE>
<PAGE>2
immediately following a Change of Control of the
Corporation, then the Corporation shall provide to the
Executive a severance benefit in the manner and amount as
provided in Section 4 of this Agreement (the "Severance
Entitlement").

     Section 4.    Manner and Amount of Severance
Entitlement.  If the Corporation is obligated to provide
a Severance Entitlement to the Executive pursuant to
Section 3 of this Agreement, the manner in which the
Corporation shall provide such Severance Entitlement and
the amount thereof shall be as follows:

          (a) The Corporation shall cancel all
     indebtedness of the Executive to the Corporation
     (if any) up to, but not in excess of, the amount of
     the Severance Entitlement (as provided in Section
     4(c) below).

          (b) If the amount of indebtedness of the
     Executive to the Corporation cancelled pursuant to
     Section 4(a) above is less than the amount of the
     Severance Entitlement to be provided to the
     Executive by the Corporation, the Corporation shall
     pay to the Executive, by check, an amount of money
     equal to the difference between the amount of the
     Executive's indebtedness that is cancelled and the
     amount of the Severance Entitlement to be provided
     to the Executive.

          (c) The Severance Entitlement to be provided
     by the Corporation to the Executive shall consist
     of the cancellation of indebtedness and/or the
     payment of money as provided in Sections 4(a) and
     4(b) above.  The aggregate dollar amount of the
     Severance Entitlement, whether in debt cancellation
     or money or both, shall be equal to two times the
     greater of (i) the current (as of the time
     Executive becomes entitled to the Severance
     Entitlement) amount of base salary being paid by
     the Corporation to the Executive on an annualized
     basis, or (ii) the highest amount of base salary
     paid by the Corporation to the Executive for any
     full calendar year during which the Executive was
     employed by the Corporation; provided, however,
     that if such Severance Entitlement, either alone or
     together with other payments which the Executive
     has the right to receive from any PMI Company,
     would constitute an "excess parachute payment"
     within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal
     Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), then
     the Corporation shall pay an additional amount of
     money to the Executive that will equal (based upon<PAGE>
<PAGE>3
     the Executive's good faith representations of the
     Executive's income tax position for the year(s) of
     payment(s)) the sum of (i) all excise tax imposed
     upon the Executive by Section 4999 of the Code and
     (ii) all additional state and federal income taxes
     attributable to the additional payments to the
     Executive pursuant to this proviso clause
     (including all state and federal taxes on the
     additional income tax payments).  The determination
     of the amounts of such payments pursuant to the
     immediately preceding proviso shall be made by the
     Corporation in good faith, and such determination
     shall be conclusive and binding.

     Section 5.  Provision of Severance Entitlement. 
With respect to a Severance Entitlement to be provided to
the Executive hereunder,the Corporation shall provide to
the Executive satisfactory written evidence of the amount
of any debt cancellation, and/or shall pay to the
Executive any money, to which the Executive is entitled
as a Severance Entitlement not later than 30 days after
the later of (i) the occurrence of the Change of Control
of the Corporation or (ii) the termination of the
Executive's employment.

     Section 6.    Withholding.  The Corporation may
withhold or otherwise deduct from any Severance
Entitlement to be provided hereunder all federal, state,
city, county or other taxes as shall be required pursuant
to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.

     Section 7.  Change of Control of the Corporation. 
For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change of Control of
the Corporation" shall be deemed to have occurred if,
after the date hereof either:

          (a) there shall have been consummated (i) any
     reorganization, consolidation or merger of the
     Corporation in which the Corporation is not the
     continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to
     which shares of the Corporation's common stock
     shall have been converted into cash, securities or
     other property, or (ii) any sale, lease, exchange
     or other transfer, directly or indirectly, (in one
     transaction or a series of related transactions) of
     all, or substantially all, of the assets of the
     Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries
     unless, following such reorganization, merger,
     consolidation, or transfer of assets,

<PAGE>
<PAGE>4
                   (A)  more than 60 percent of the
              then outstanding shares of common stock
              of the corporation resulting from such
              reorganization, merger or consolidation
              (or of the corporation receiving the
              transferred assets) (the "Continuing
              Corporation") and of the then outstanding
              voting securities of the Continuing
              Corporation entitled to vote generally in
              the election of Directors are then
              beneficially owned, directly or
              indirectly, by all or substantially all
              of the individuals and entities who were
              the beneficial owners, respectively, of
              the outstanding shares of common stock of
              the Corporation and of the outstanding
              voting securities of the Corporation
              entitled to vote generally in the
              election of Directors immediately prior
              to such reorganization, merger,
              consolidation or transfer of assets in
              substantially the same proportions as
              their ownership, immediately prior to
              such reorganization, merger,
              consolidation or transfer of assets, of
              the outstanding shares of common stock of
              the Corporation and of the outstanding
              voting securities of the Corporation,

                   (B)  no "person" (as that term is
              used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of
              the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
              amended) (excluding (aa) the Corporation,
              (bb) any employee benefit plan (or
              related trust) sponsored or maintained by
              the Corporation or any entity controlled,
              directly or indirectly, by the
              Corporation or the Continuing Corporation
              and (cc) any "person" beneficially
              owning, immediately prior to such
              reorganization, merger, consolidation or
              transfer of assets, directly or
              indirectly, 20 percent or more of the
              outstanding shares of common stock of the
              Corporation or the outstanding voting
              securities of the Corporation)
              beneficially owns, directly or
              indirectly, 20 percent or more of,
              respectively, the then outstanding shares
              of common stock of the Continuing
              Corporation or of the combined voting
              power of the then outstanding voting<PAGE>
<PAGE>5
              securities of the Continuing Corporation
              entitled to vote generally in the
              election of Directors, and

                   (C)  at least a majority of the
              members of the Board of Directors of the
              Continuing Corporation were members of
              the Board of Directors of the Corporation
              at the time of the execution of the
              initial agreement providing for such
              reorganization, merger, consolidation or
              transfer of assets;

              (b)  any "person" or "group" of persons
          (as those terms are used in Sections 13(d) and
          14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of
          1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and
          Regulations 13D-G and 14D thereunder) shall
          have become the "beneficial owner" (within the
          meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act),
          directly or indirectly, of securities of the
          Corporation representing 20 percent or more of
          the combined voting power of the Corporation's
          then outstanding voting securities entitled to
          vote generally in the election of Directors
          (excluding (i) the Corporation, (ii) any
          employee benefit plan (or related trust)
          sponsored or maintained by the Corporation or
          any entity controlled, directly or indirectly,

          the date of this Agreement, is the "beneficial
          owner", directly or indirectly, of 20 percent
          or more of the Corporation's outstanding
          common stock, and (iv) any "group" of persons
          that includes Don R. Taylor); or

              (c)  during any period of two consecutive
          years, individuals who constitute the Board of
          Directors of the Corporation at the beginning
          of such period cease for any reason to
          constitute at least a majority thereof,
          excluding individuals whose election, or
          nomination for election by the Corporation's
          shareholders was approved by a vote of at
          least two-thirds of the Directors then still
          in office who were Directors at the beginning
          of such period, unless, for this purpose, any
          such new Director's initial assumption of
          office occurs as a result of either an actual
          or threatened election contest (as such terms
          are used in Rule 14a-11 or Regulation 14A
          promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other
          actual or threatened solicitation of proxies<PAGE>
<PAGE>6
          or consents by or on behalf of a person other
          than the Board of Directors of the
          Corporation.

     Section 8.      Disqualifying Termination.  For
purposes of this Agreement, a "Disqualifying Termination"
of the Executive's employment with the Corporation shall
mean a termination of the Executive's employment under
any of the following circumstances:

          (a) termination of the Executive's employment
     by the Corporation for Cause (as defined in Section
     9); or

          (b) termination of the Executive's employment
     by the Corporation for Disability (as defined in
     Section 10); or

          (c) termination of the Executive's employment
     by the Executive without Good Reason (as defined in
     Section 11) to do so; or

          (d) termination of the Executive's employment
     as a result of the death of the Executive.

(As provided in Section 3, the Executive shall not be
entitled to a Severance Entitlement under this Agreement
if the Executive's employment with the Corporation was
terminated under circumstances constituting a
Disqualifying Termination.)

     Section 9.  Termination by the Corporation for
Cause.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Corporation
shall be deemed to have terminated the Executive's
employment with the Corporation for "Cause" only if the
Corporation terminated the Executive's employment with
the Corporation for any of the following reasons:

          (a) the continued failure of the Executive to
     substantially perform any of the Executive's
     significant duties or responsibilities in
     connection with the Executive's employment (other
     than any such failure resulting from the
     Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental
     illness) if such failure is not corrected or cured
     within 30 days after demand for substantial
     performance is made in writing upon the Executive
     by the Corporation specifically identifying the
     manner in which the Corporation believes the
     Executive has failed to substantially perform one
     or more of the Executive's significant duties or
     responsibilities (repetition of the same failure as
     previously described in any such written demand<PAGE>
<PAGE>7
     after the 30-day cure period following such written
     demand shall be deemed to be "continued failure" to
     substantially perform by the Executive); or

          (b) any act that constitutes on the part of
     the Executive common law fraud or dishonesty
     regardless of whether such fraud or dishonesty
     resulted in, or was intended to result in, a
     benefit to the Executive at the expense of the
     Corporation; or

          (c) the conviction of the Executive of, or
     the plea by the Executive of nolo contendere to, a
     felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; or

          (d) any continuing violation by the Executive
     in any material respect of any of the Corporation's
     policies or of any term or provision of any
     employment or other agreement between the Executive
     and the Corporation which, in any such case, is not
     corrected or abated by the Executive within 30 days
     after written notice of such violation is given by
     the Corporation to the Executive (repetition of the
     same violation as previously described in any such
     written notice after the 30 day correction period
     following such written notice shall be deemed to be
     a "continuing violation" by the Executive); or

          (e) the Executive's unexcused total
     abandonment or neglect of the Executive's duties
     and responsibilities in connection with the
     Executive's employment with the Corporation (other
     than absences due to illness, physical or mental
     incapacity, vacations, or other excused absences)
     for a continuous period of ten working days.

     Section 10.  Termination by the Corporation for
Disability.  For purposes of this Agreement, the
Executive shall be considered to have suffered a
"Disability" and the Corporation shall be deemed to have
terminated the Executive's employment with the
Corporation for Disability if such termination is made
after (and is identified by the Corporation as being on
account of the occurrence of) either of the following:

          (a) the actual receipt by the Executive of
     income continuation benefits or similar benefits
     pursuant to a disability insurance policy as a
     result of a determination under such policy that
     the Executive is disabled, or

<PAGE>
<PAGE 8>
          (b) the Executive's inability by reason of
     physical and/or mental incapacity to substantially
     perform the essential functions of the Executive's
     duties and responsibilities to the Corporation on a
     full-time basis for a period of 26 consecutive
     weeks.

     Section 11.  Termination by the Executive for Good
Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive
shall be deemed to have terminated the Executive's
employment with the Corporation for "Good Reason" only if
the Executive terminated his employment with the
Corporation within 90 days after the Executive's base
salary was either (a) reduced to an amount that was less
than 95 percent of the Executive's base salary as of the
date of this Agreement, or (b) reduced by more than 5
percent for any calendar year from the amount paid in the
prior calendar year.

     Section 12.   No Mitigation.  The Executive is not
required to mitigate the amount of the Severance
Entitlement to be provided by the Corporation pursuant to
this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise,
nor shall the amount of the Severance Entitlement payable
pursuant to this Agreement be reduced by any compensation
earned by the Executive as the result of employment by
another employer, or which might have been earned by the
Executive had the Executive sought other employment,
after the date of termination of the Executive's
employment with the Corporation.

     Section 13.   Notices.  Any notice, request, demand
and other communication to be given hereunder shall be in

     Re:  Incentive Stock Option Agreement

Dear Mr. Hentschel:

     Personnel Management, Inc. (the "Corporation"),
pursuant to the Personnel Management, Inc. 1994 Stock
Option Plan (the "Plan"), hereby grants to you as of July
15, 1996 (the "Effective Date"), an incentive stock
option (the "Option"), which Option shall have the
following terms and conditions, in addition to those
provided in the Plan:

     1.   Number of Shares:  The Option is for 50,000
          shares of the Corporation's common stock, no
          par value (the "Common Shares"), subject to
          adjustment as provided in the Plan.

     2.   Exercise Price:  The per share exercise price
          shall be $8.61 (the average of the closing bid
          and asked prices for the five trading days
          immediately preceding the Effective Date of
          the Option), subject to adjustment as provided
          in the Plan.

     3.   Exercisability.  The Option shall become
          immediately exercisable with respect to 10,000
          shares covered by the Option, and the
          remaining 40,000 shares covered by the Option
          shall vest and first become exercisable,
          subject to your continued employment, in four
          installments of 10,000 shares each on each of
          the first four anniversaries of the Effective
          Date.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
          the Option shall become immediately
          exercisable with respect to all shares covered
          by the Option upon (a) your death, (b) your
          "Permanent and Total Disability", as defined
          in the Plan, (c) your becoming entitled to the
          Severance Entitlement pursuant to and as
          defined in Section 3 of the Change of Control
          Severance Benefits Agreement dated July 15,
          1996, between you and the Corporation, (d) the
          dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation,
          (e) a reorganization, merger or consolidation
          of the Corporation as a result of which the<PAGE>
<PAGE>2
          outstanding securities of the class then
          subject to the Option hereunder are changed
          into or exchanged for cash or property or
          securities not of the Corporation's issue, or
          (f) a sale of substantially all the property
          of the Corporation to another corporation or
          person.

The Option will expire with respect to all unpurchased
shares at 5:00 p.m., E.S.T. on July 14, 2006.

     The Option, which is intended to qualify as an
"incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section
422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
shall be in all respects limited and conditioned as
provided in the Plan.  You should consult with your
personal tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of
exercising "incentive stock options" in connection with
any future decision by you to exercise the Option in
whole or in part.  Under Sections 6 and 8 of the Plan,
the Option generally cannot be voluntarily transferred by
you and the Option generally cannot be exercised by
anyone other than you during your lifetime.  A copy of
the Plan is enclosed with this letter.  Exercise of the
Option shall be subject to your making of the
representations set forth below and any representations
to such other matters as the Corporation's Stock Option
Committee, in its discretion, may determine to be
necessary or advisable to evidence compliance with
requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or state securities laws for registering or
exempting from registration any offer or sale of the
Corporation's securities pursuant to the Plan.

     Neither this letter nor the Plan shall be construed
as giving you any right to be retained in the employ of
the Corporation and neither shall be construed as
limiting in any way the Corporation's right to terminate
or change the terms of your employment.  The Option and
your right to purchase or receive shares pursuant to the
Option shall terminate within the time periods specified
by Section 8 of the Plan in the event your employment
with the Corporation is terminated.

     This letter, upon your delivery of an executed copy
