To Our 
Stockholders

In a year marked by economic recession, Kelly Services accelerated its efforts to improve

efficiencies, build on existing strengths, and align operations with our strategies.  In spite of
only moderate sales and earnings growth during 2002, we outperformed our competitors.

2002 Results

Kelly’s sales during 2002 totaled $4.3 billion, a 1.6 percent increase over 2001.  Net earnings
were $18.6 million, a 12.2 percent increase from the $16.5 million we earned in 2001.  Diluted
earnings per share were $.52 compared with $.46 achieved during the prior year.

While we are not yet back to our pre-recession records set in 2000, these results represent a
significant improvement over 2001.  We grew sales and earnings, gained market share, and put
nearly 700,000 people to work in 26 countries.

Strengthening Our Position

By carefully managing expenses, we leveraged modest sales increases into solid

earnings gains, and still directed funds toward growth.  We were able to expand
current business lines, enhance products, and deploy new productivity
enhancements throughout the company.  And, in response to customer demand,
Kelly Engineering Resources® added new offices in France and the United
Kingdom.  Kelly Scientific Resources® expanded to Switzerland, Scotland, and
Italy — bringing its total to more than 100 offices in 12 countries.

Several new enhancements were made to our office services line.  Our

Marketing and Service Departments introduced many improvements in employee
testing and training.  Kelly’s new behavior skills analysis helps us better match the
right employees with the right assignment.  A multilingual skills test identifies
employees in high demand by companies serving the global marketplace.  In
addition, newly created accounting, medical, and legal office-skill evaluations allow
us to focus on three new niche areas of office services staffing.

Our Service Department also launched programs designed to enhance the
productivity of our field operations.  In North America, we began deploying our
new “front office” system.  This state-of-the-art system, known as Kelly StaffNet™,
strengthens our ability to provide world-class service to our temporary employees
and customers.  In addition, we launched the all new PinPoint® Selection System,
a proprietary suite of tools developed to help screen, evaluate, and hire the right
employees to fit customer needs.  Our internet and computer-based training
programs were also significantly improved to provide full-time and temporary
employees with the training, knowledge, and skills needed for success.

We strengthened Kelly’s financial position.  Cash on hand increased from 
$83 million to $101 million, as we shortened the aging of our accounts receivable.
In addition, Kelly Services purchased 500,000 shares of its Class A common
stock, in a negotiated transaction, from the William R. Kelly Estate.  Shares were
purchased at a discounted price, and financed with available cash.  The stock
purchase represents a prudent and effective use of our solid balance sheet and
strong cash position.

It is important to

remember that sales

growth in our

industry is very

dependent upon

growth in the

economy.

Short-Term Uncertainty

We expressed concern throughout 2002 that the economic recovery was fragile in the United
States.  GDP growth slowed in the second half of the year and several key economic components such
as consumer spending, corporate earnings, and capital spending remained under pressure.  While the
U.S. economy did grow somewhat in 2002, the recovery stalled in the fourth quarter.

In October 2002, we noted that the U.S. recovery did not appear to be taking on a traditional
“V” or “U” shape, or even necessarily a “W” shape.  Rather, it looked like it would turn out to be an
“extended U,” which includes a longer period of limited or no growth.  The “extended U” seems to be
the pattern of this recession.

The U.S. recovery is stalled and, in our judgment, there is still a possibility of another dip.

With 25% of our sales outside the U.S., we are also very concerned about the lengthening
European recession.

We ended the year 2002 uncertain as to how 2003 would unfold for either the economy or for
Kelly Services.  It is important to remember that sales growth in our industry is very dependent upon
growth in the economy.  While we believe that we are probably in the early stages of a recovery, the
near term outlook is not clear.

Our perspective is not markedly different than it was when we entered 2002, and our approach is
much the same.  Expense control is tight.  We are maintaining sufficient cash to weather a second dip
or to take advantage of a robust recovery.  And we are meeting customers’ needs for new offices or
service extensions.

Long-Term Optimism

On a longer-term view, we believe that Kelly is well positioned to return to pre-recession levels of

sales and earnings performance.  We have operated through a number of economic expansions and
recessions.  While it is not clear when this particular recession will end, this lack of visibility is not
unusual at this point of the economic cycle.  

Our experience, reflected in our financial conservatism and our marketing and operational
competitiveness, gave us the flexibility to cope with the recession as it unfolded.  Our excellent
management team, with a balanced mix of industry veterans and skilled professionals, is positioned
and ready to substantially increase market share as it successfully did during the last two years.

Our market share increase was earned, not by pursuit of short-term gain, but by following the
strategies that have served us well over the years.  We achieved our growth by remaining true to our
commitment to ethics, quality service, and a constant focus on customers — many of them the
world’s largest companies.  We believe that great years lie ahead — a future rich in innovation,
opportunity, and prosperity.

Our Shared Values

At a time when business credibility is under so much scrutiny, good 
old-fashioned values and performance are key to regaining, growing, and
sustaining public confidence.

We have always strived to be a company with financial and business acumen,

high standards of performance, and rock-solid integrity.  Above all, we are
distinguished by the quality of our people — talented, inventive, optimistic, and
committed to being the best.

The recent business scandals have understandably heightened the public’s
concern for ethics and the ethical standards of business.  To our way of thinking,
the reawakened level of attention to a wide range of ethical issues is a welcome
development.  Long before this year’s headlines and focus on financial reporting,
Kelly’s ethical standards were firmly in place.  These standards, established by our
founder William Russell Kelly in 1946, are still expressed in our company’s
Vision, Mission, Shared Values, and Quality Policy.

In the pages that follow, Dr. B. Joseph White, former dean of the University of

Michigan Business School, managing director of Fred Alger Management, Inc.,
and a member of our board of directors, shares his thoughts about the ethical
responsibilities of America’s business leaders.  We believe his comments are
reflective of Kelly’s philosophy and way of doing business.

This will be a period of great challenge and opportunity for Kelly Services.

We are prepared to make significant changes as we continue to evolve as a
progressive, forward-looking company.  On the other hand, our basic principles
will not change.  Nor will we waver in making certain that the values upon which
Kelly Services was founded will guide us in the years ahead.  

We wish to thank our customers for their confidence and loyalty, our nearly
700,000 full-time and temporary employees who are the heart of Kelly Services,
our stockholders for their faith and continuing support, and our board of
directors for their ongoing commitment to our company and their guidance
during the past year.

We achieved our

growth by remaining

true to our

commitment to

ethics, quality service,

and a constant focus

on customers.

Integrity

Thoughts From a Member of the Kelly Services Board of Directors

B. Joseph White
Managing Director,

Fred Alger Management, Inc.

Wilber K. Pierpont Collegiate Professor 
Dean, 1991-2001 

University of Michigan Business School 

J A N U A R Y   2 0 0 3

D uring the past year, trust and confidence

in the leadership of American public
companies were badly shaken by highly

visible and egregious failures of leadership
integrity in companies like Enron, WorldCom,
Adelphia, and Global Crossing.  Guardians of
public company wealth, like the accounting
profession and the investment industry, failed to
perform their respective roles with courage and
integrity — compounding the crisis of confidence.

I had the opportunity in October 2002 to
share my thoughts on these matters at the thirty-
sixth annual William K. McInally Memorial
Lecture at the University of Michigan Business
School.  The title of my remarks was, “Post-
Bubble, Post-Scandals:  Restoring the Credibility
of American Business Leadership.”  Terence
Adderley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of Kelly Services, attended the lecture.  He
invited me to share a few thoughts with you in
this year’s Kelly Services annual report.

It’s All About Character

In the lecture, I listed a number of actions
needed to restore public confidence in business,
such as punishing wrongdoers, ensuring
trustworthy financial reporting, increasing the
independence of audit firms, eliminating

conflicts of interest in the banking and financial
services industry, requiring high-quality corporate
governance, and providing resources for the
S.E.C. to play its vital role of shareholder
advocate and securities industry watchdog.
Today, gratefully, progress is being made on all
these fronts and public confidence is being
restored.

Tougher legislation and regulation have a

role to play in improving the prospects for
corporate integrity by clarifying the rules and
consequences of good versus bad behavior.
However, I believe that it is ultimately the
personal values, mutual expectations, and
courage and independence of those to whom we
entrust our public companies that matter most.
As a CEO friend of mine likes to say, “It’s really
all about character.”

Creating a Culture of Integrity

After many years as both a senior executive
and a corporate board member, I have come to
see that high-integrity corporate behavior is the
result of three critical conditions:

• The CEO himself or herself must be a

person of high integrity.

• The CEO and the board of directors must
create a culture of high expectations with
regard to honest and ethical behavior
throughout the company, starting with senior
management since they set the example.

• The CEO, senior executives, and board
members must possess, and be willing to
exercise, the personal courage required to
sustain a high-integrity culture in the board
room and throughout the company.

Doing What’s Right

The corporate scandals of the last year

remind us that we are entitled to expect
corporate leaders — senior executives and boards
of directors — to focus not only on a company’s
current stock price, but equally important, on its
enduring value and its capacity to grow that
value.  Similarly, we are entitled to expect the
stewards of public companies to ask on all
important matters not only, “Is it legal?” but
equally important, “Is it right?” 

Let me note here an important judgment I
have made based on my service as a director of
Kelly Services for nearly eight years.  My
confidence in the integrity and honesty of my
board colleagues at Kelly Services, our CEO
Terry Adderley, and his senior management
team is very high.  All have worked hard, and
by and large successfully, to create and reinforce
a culture in which honesty and ethical behavior
are expected of people throughout the
company.  This perpetuates a proud legacy
established by Russell Kelly, the Company’s
founder, over fifty-five years ago.

Years of Growth Ahead

Turning to the larger picture of the outlook
for our economy and the country, I think that it
was easy for some last year to become
discouraged and even pessimistic about the
prospects for our American business and
economic system.  The scandals unsettled us all.
The stock market declined for the third straight
year.  We heard talk of the parallels between
Japan’s stagnation in the 1990s and the
stagnation we in America might face in the
decade following the bursting of the stock market
bubble in 2000.

While concern in the face of what we’ve
been through is understandable, and to a degree
warranted, I want to conclude by reporting to
you my own strong optimism about the years
ahead.  Why?  There are two reasons.  First, while
America’s economic and social systems have
occasional tendencies toward excess, we also have
great capacity as a nation for self-correction and
renewal.  Indeed, as I noted earlier, the process of
reform and confidence building is well underway.
Second, throughout our history, the nation’s
business system has demonstrated tremendous
resilience and vitality.  I believe that fears of an
American replay of a Japanese style post-bubble
stagnation are ill-founded.  For at least the last
sixty years, underestimating the dynamism of the
American economy has been a serious mistake,
and it would be a mistake today.

I look forward to many years of economic

growth ahead, with Kelly Services fully
participating as a high-integrity company and a
growing, profitable industry leader.

This is a summary annual report.  Complete financial statements

including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations, and Notes to Financial Statements, are

contained in Kelly Services’ Annual Report on Form 10-K, available on

our website, www.kellyservices.com, or through our Investor Relations

office.  Please see page 30 for contact information.

Certain statements contained in this Summary Annual Report are “forward-

looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation

Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”).  Forward-looking statements include statements

that are predictive in nature; depend upon or refer to future events or

conditions; or include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,”

“believes,” “estimates,” or variations or negatives thereof, or by similar or

comparable words or phrases.  In addition, any statements concerning future

financial performance (including future revenues, earnings or growth rates),

ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future Company actions,

that may be provided by management are also forward-looking statements as

defined by the Act.  Forward-looking statements are based on current

expectations and projections about future events and are subject to risks,

uncertainties, and assumptions about the Company; and economic and market

factors in the countries in which the Company does business, among other

things.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and the

Company has no specific intention to update these statements. 

Actual events and results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted

in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors.  The principal

important risk factors that could cause the Company’s actual performance and

future events and actions to differ materially from such forward-looking

statements include, but are not limited to, competitive market pressures

including pricing, changing market and economic conditions, material changes

in demand from large corporate customers, availability of temporary workers

with appropriate skills required by customers, increases in wages paid to

temporary workers, liabilities for client and employee actions, foreign currency

fluctuations, changes in laws and regulations (including federal, state, and

international tax laws), the Company’s ability to effectively implement and

manage its information technology programs, and the ability of the Company to

successfully expand into new markets and service lines.  Certain risk factors are

discussed more fully in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with

the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Effective in 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.142 “Goodwill and Other 
Intangible Assets” and, accordingly, eliminated the amortization of goodwill.  Goodwill amortization was $2.7 million and 
$2.0 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.  Net income, 
adjusted for the elimination of goodwill amortization, would have been $18.6 million in 2001 and $88.7 million in 2000.
