amendment to the Kelly Services, Inc. Performance Incentive Plan increasing
the maximum number of awardable shares, designated Proposal 2, FOR the

the Annual Meeting in the manner as set forth on the proxy. Abstentions (but
not broker non-votes) are counted for purposes of determining a quorum.
However, abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast in
the tabulation of votes on any matter submitted to stockholders.

      Stockholders on the record date will be entitled to one vote for each

      At the close of business on March 27, 2000, the number of issued and

shares of the Class B common stock, having a par value of $1.00. Class B
common stock is the only class of the Company's securities with voting
rights.

                                      1


                       Securities Beneficially Owned by
                    Principal Stockholders and Management

      Under regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, persons
who have power to vote or dispose of common stock of the Company, either
alone or jointly with others, are deemed to be beneficial owners of the
common stock.

      Set forth in the following table are the beneficial holdings on March
1, 2000, on the basis described above, of each person known by the Company to
own beneficially more than five percent of the Class B common stock:

 Name and Address                      Number of Shares         Percent
        of                               and Nature of             of
Beneficial Owners                 Beneficial Ownership (a)(b)   Class(b)

Bank One Corporation. .........           2,382,709(e)            68.1
  One First National Plaza
  Chicago, Illinois 60670

(a) Nature of beneficial ownership of securities is direct unless otherwise
    indicated by footnote. Beneficial ownership as shown in the table arises
    from sole voting power and sole investment power unless indicated by
    footnote.

(b) Because Securities and Exchange Commission attribution rules require
    stock held in trust to be treated as beneficially held by each co-trustee
    sharing voting power for the stock, the numbers of shares and percentages
    shown total more than one hundred percent of the class.

(c) Includes 952,100 shares directly held; 2,189,840 shares in the William R.
    Kelly Trust of which he is a co-trustee and has sole investment power and
    has shared voting power with Bank One Corporation, the other co-trustee;
    71,825 shares in an irrevocable trust, of which he is beneficiary; 625
    shares held in five separate trusts of which he is co-trustee with sole
    or shared voting and investment power, in which he has no equity
    interest; and 176 shares owned by Mr. Adderley's wife, in which he
    disclaims beneficial interest.

(d) Because of the shares in the William R. Kelly Trust of which he is a
    co-trustee with Bank One Corporation and his own substantial
    stockholdings, Mr. Adderley may be deemed to be a "control person" of the
    Company under applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange
    Commission.

(e) Based upon a report filed by Bank One Corporation with the Securities and
    Exchange Commission on Schedule 13G and upon subsequent information
    received from Bank One Corporation upon which the Company relies for the
    information presented. The report indicates that the 2,382,709 shares of
    common stock held by Bank One Corporation are categorized as follows with
    respect to voting power and dispositive power: Voting Power: sole voting
    power 108,782; shared voting power 2,262,290; limited voting power
    11,637; Dispositive Power: sole dispositive power 11,637; shared
    dispositive power 2,371,072.

      Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the

with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and
reports of changes in ownership of common stock of the Company. Officers,
directors and greater than ten-percent shareholders are required by SEC
regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they
file.

                              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 M.A.
Fay, C.V. Fricke, V.G. Istock and B.J. White, which held four meetings in
1999. 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.

      The Compensation Committee whose functions are described in the
Compensation Committee Report on page 5 of this Proxy Statement held six
meetings in 1999 and is composed of M.A. Fay, C.V. Fricke, V.G. Istock and
B.J. White. During 1999 the Board of Directors did not have a nominating
committee.

      All of the Directors of the Company attended at least 75 percent of the
aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and committees on
which each served.

                          Compensation of Directors

      Directors of the Company who are not salaried officers are paid an
annual fee of $37,500 (consisting of a $25,000 cash retainer fee and a stock
award worth $12,500), 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. The $12,500 stock award portion of the annual
fee is made under the Non-Employee Director Stock Award Plan approved by the
stockholders in 1995, from which each non-officer Director receives an annual
grant of shares of the Company's Class A common stock equal in value to
one-half of the Director's annual cash retainer fee.

      On May 10, 1999, the stockholders approved the adoption of the Kelly
Services, Inc. 1999 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan, under which the
Board of Directors from time to time may make discretionary grants of options
to purchase shares of Class A common stock to non-employee directors. In
1999, the Board granted to each non-employee director a vested option to
purchase 10,000 shares of Class A common stock at the Fair Market Value of
the stock on the day of the grants.

                        COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
                       COVERING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

      The Company's compensation program for executives is administered by
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, consisting of B. J.
White, M. A. Fay, C. V. Fricke, and V. G. Istock, each of whom is an
independent director. 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 1999, 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 and
retain a management team of high quality; (c) to create incentives which
motivate employees to achieve continual growth and 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 are linked to a two-to-five-year performance period, the
achievement of which will be rewarded accordingly. All compensation, other
than stock options and restricted stock awards, whether in the form of
salary, short-term incentive awards, grants of performance shares, or cash
equivalents, are based on successful accomplishment of periodically
established objectives reflecting the Company's business and financial goals.
Performance objectives, which are identified as short or long-term, provide
standards for the measurement of Company and unit performance. Some
performance objectives are Company-wide; others will vary, depending on
individual responsibilities, groups of employees, or particular projects and
plans.

      The Company ordinarily seeks to provide performance-based compensation
that allows for maximum deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal
Revenue Code and related regulations. However, tax deductibility is only one
of many factors that must be considered in any final decision regarding
executive compensation. In order to best serve the Company and the interests
of its stockholders, the Company may determine that payment of non-deductible
compensation is necessary and appropriate to provide awards consistent with
the overall philosophy and objectives of the compensation programs.

      The Company also seeks to encourage substantial stock ownership by the
Company's senior executives so as to align their interests more closely with
the stockholders' interests. In order to do so, the Committee has approved
share ownership guidelines as objectives to be worked toward by these
executives. The guideline for the Chief Executive Officer is ownership of
shares having a value five times his base salary; for executive vice
presidents, the guideline is four times base salary; and for senior vice
presidents, the guideline is three times base salary.

                                      5


      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 1999 compensation of Mr.
Adderley as the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

Annual Compensation

      Annual cash compensation for executive officers consists of base
salaries and cash incentive bonuses.

      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 as credible within the professional field of compensation
management. Because the Company competes to recruit executive-level personnel
from many industries and not just from the staffing industry, the companies
included in the surveys referred to above are not the same as those included
in the Peer Group Index used in this Proxy Statement for performance graph
purposes. Base salaries are targeted to correspond generally with the median
of the range of salaries in the surveys consulted.

      Competitive assessments include reviewing salary survey data of
comparative companies, not necessarily in the staffing industry, 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.

      In April 1999, Mr. Adderley received a 5.3 percent salary increase from
$760,000 to $800,000 to bring his annualized base salary more in line with
the median base salaries of chief executive officers of other companies of
comparable size.

      One newly hired executive was paid a predetermined cash bonus for 1999
as a recruiting inducement, negotiated with him before he joined the Company.
All other 1999 cash bonuses to executive officers (including Mr. Adderley)
were cash incentive bonuses paid pursuant to the Company's Short-Term
Incentive Plan.

      In accordance with that plan, in the first quarter of 1999 the
Committee established target and threshold goals relating to corporate
diluted earnings per share and a payout schedule for each executive showing a
range of potential bonus amounts the executive could receive under the plan,
which depended on the extent to which the Company's actual 1999 diluted
earnings per share met or exceeded the threshold. Mr. Adderley's entire
potential bonus was tied to this objectively determinable standard and a
fixed percentage of the potential bonus under the plan for each of the other
executive officers also was tied to this standard. The rest of the potential
bonuses for the other executive officers were tied to other performance
goals, which also were established by the Committee in the first quarter of
the year and were set in light of the particular functions and
responsibilities of the individual executives.

      Because the Company's actual diluted earnings per share for 1999
exceeded the threshold the Committee had established for the year, after the
end of the year the Committee approved a $630,000 cash bonus for Mr. Adderley
and the portions of the Short-Term Incentive Plan bonuses for other executive
officers that had been tied to diluted earnings per share, all in amounts
determined by their pre-established schedules for the level of diluted
earnings per share actually achieved. The remainder

                                      6



of the 1999 Short-Term Incentive Plan bonuses paid to those other executive
officers were determined by the Committee after the end of the year based on
judgments of the Committee concerning how successful they were in achieving
their individualized goals.

Long-Term Compensation

      The long-term incentive compensation for executive officers can consist
of cash and stock-based awards made under the Company's Performance Incentive
Plan. Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, and, in the case
of certain executives, Restricted Stock Awards and Performance Share Awards,
are currently the only type of awards outstanding under the Performance
Incentive Plan.

      During 1999, there was a review of compensation components for chief
executive officers in companies of similar size. As a result of that review,
the Committee during 1999 recommended that Mr. Adderley be awarded a
Non-Qualified Stock Option to purchase 72,000 shares of Class A common stock
to bring his total compensation package more in line with competitive
practice.

      The decision to grant stock 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 guideline
of option shares for each management level that is generally competitive with
the median level of grants awarded by companies of similar size.

      In 1999, Mr. Adderley and the other most senior officers of the Company
were granted Restricted Shares of the Company's Class A common stock under
the Company's Performance Incentive Plan. These Restricted Shares vest over a
three year period. Mr. Adderley received a Restricted Share Award totaling
15,000 shares.

      1999 was also the final year of the 1997-1999 Performance Share Award
cycle. Payments with respect to that cycle were made according to the
predetermined earnings per share criteria established by the Committee; Mr.
Adderley's payout was 12,000 shares. No new Performance Share Awards were
made in 1999.

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 1999

      The following table shows all grants of stock options to the officers
named in the Summary Compensation Table above in 1999. The exercise price of
all such options was the fair market value on the date of grant. Twenty five
(25%) percent are exercisable one year after the grant date with an
additional twenty five (25%) percent exercisable on each of the next three
anniversary dates. 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.

(1) Option type is either Incentive Stock Option (ISO) or Non-Qualified Stock
    Option (NQ).

(2) 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 stockholders. 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 $24.50
    (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 $39.91 and
    $63.55, respectively, as of the expiration date of their options.

                    Matters to be Brought Before the Meeting

                            Election of Directors
                                  Proposal 1

      The Board of Directors is divided into three classes with each class
elected for a three-year term. Under the Certificate of Incorporation, the
Board of Directors shall consist of no fewer than five (5) and no more than
nine (9) members, the exact number of Directors to be determined from time to
time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has fixed the number
of Directors constituting the whole Board at five (5).

      The Board of Directors recommends that the nominees named below be
elected to serve as Directors. The nominees will each serve for a three (3)
year term ending at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held after the close
of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

      The shares represented by the enclosed form of proxy, when properly
executed by a stockholder of record, will be voted at the Annual Meeting, or
any adjournment thereof, as designated thereon if unrevoked at the time of
the Meeting. If a nominee is unavailable for election for any reason on the
date of the election of the Director (which event is not anticipated), the
persons named in the enclosed form of proxy may vote for the election of a
person designated by a majority of the proxy attorneys present at the
Meeting. The Directors will be elected by a majority of the votes cast by
holders of Class B common stock who are present in person, or represented by
proxy, and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

      The name and age of each nominee and for each person whose term of
office as a Director will continue after the Meeting as of March 1, 2000,

            Approval of Amendment to the Performance Incentive Plan
                 Increasing the Maximum Number Of Awardable Shares
                                  Proposal 2

      Background for Proposal. The Kelly Services, Inc., Performance
Incentive Plan, under which various stock-related awards (stock options,
restricted shares, performance shares, additional shares, share appreciation
rights, or foreign awards) are made to Company employees, was last restated,
amended, and approved by the stockholders in 1996. The Plan limits the number
of shares that can be used for awards, using an overall percentage of the
Company's outstanding shares, modified by a so-called "evergreen" approach
that recycles (and makes available for new awards) shares that were the
subject of previous awards that have expired, have been forfeited, or have
been outstanding over five years.

      Since the 1996 amendment, the limitation rule has been that, at any
given time, the number of shares that may be issued or made subject to future
issuance under the Plan may not exceed 7.5% of the non-treasury Class A stock
outstanding at the Company's last fiscal year end, adjusted by the items
listed in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5 of the Plan (see Exhibit A to
this Proxy Statement.)

      As the proportion of incentive based compensation and the number of
eligible participants have increased, the number of shares available under
the Plan has become insufficient. Consequently, the Board has concluded that
the maximum number of shares which may be issued or made subject to future
issuance under the Plan should be increased from 7.5% to 10%, subject to the
same "evergreen" adjustments, in order to ensure an adequate number of shares
for future stock-related awards.

      Accordingly, as authorized under the Plan, subject to stockholder
approval, the Board of Directors has adopted an amendment to Section 5 of the
Plan that would substitute "10%" for "7.5%." The amended section is
reproduced in full in Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

      The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" approval of the
Amendment to the Performance Incentive Plan Increasing the Maximum Number of
Awardable Shares.

                   Relationship with Independent Accountants
                                  Proposal 3

      The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed the firm of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent accountants of the Company for the
current fiscal year ending January 2, 2001, 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent accountants for
the year 2000 be approved. If stockholders fail to approve this proposal, the
Board will reconsider the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as
independent accountants for the year 2000.

      The proposal to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
will be carried if it

                                     13




receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company's
Class B common stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at
the Annual Meeting.

                            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, 2000.

                                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, 2000,
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

      The following excerpt is a complete copy of Section 5 from the Kelly
Services, Inc. Performance Incentive Plan, as amended and restated by the
shareholders in 1996 (the "Plan"). A complete copy of the Plan was provided
as an exhibit to the 1996 Proxy Statement. This excerpt has been modified to
reflect the change proposed by Proposal 2 in this Proxy Statement. The one
change has been highlighted in bold type. [For the EDGAR version of this
Exhibit A only, the change has been marked in brackets.]

Section 5 -- Maximum Number of Shares

      At any given time, the maximum number of shares of Company Stock which
may be issued as Restricted Shares or Units, Performance Shares or Units,
Additional Shares or similar Foreign Awards and made subject to future
issuance in settlement of Options (whether or not with related SARs), Share
Units or Foreign Awards shall be [10%] of the number of shares of Company
Stock that were outstanding (exclusive of treasury shares) as of the end of
the immediately preceding Company fiscal year (rounded downward, if
necessary to eliminate fractional shares),

      (a) minus the sum of:

            (1) the number of shares awarded as Restricted Shares,
      Performance Shares or Additional Shares during the period consisting of
      the immediately preceding four complete fiscal years of the Company and
      its then-current fiscal year to date (the "Adjustment Period");

            (2) the number of Share Units awarded during the Adjustment
      Period;

            (3) the number of shares made subject to Options granted
      (including Restoration Options arising) during the Adjustment Period;
      and

            (4) the total number of shares issued as Foreign Awards, and the
      maximum number of shares which in the future may be issued in
      settlement of Foreign Awards, granted during the Adjustment Period;

      (b) plus the sum of:

            (1) the number of shares as to which Options have expired or
      terminated during the Adjustment Period for any reason other than
      exercise of such Options or of related SARs;

            (2) the number of shares as to which Restricted Awards and
      Performance Awards granted during the Adjustment Period have since been
      forfeited and not vested; and

            (3) the number of shares transferred to the Company (actually or
      constructively) to satisfy the exercise price of an outstanding Option
      during the Adjustment Period.

      In addition to the foregoing, in no event may the total number of
shares covered by outstanding ISOs plus the number of shares issued in
settlement of exercised ISOs, whenever granted, exceed 4,000,000 shares.

      Any stock options, SARs or other equity-based awards assumed by the
Company in a merger or acquisition of another company shall not count against
the shares available for Award under the Plan.
