This Registration Statement includes 2,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $1.00 par value of Kelly Services, Inc. (the “Registrant”), offered or to be offered by the Registrant under the Kelly Services, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). This amount represents an increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance under the Plan. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also includes an indeterminate number of additional shares of Class A common stock that may become issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Plan.

Estimated in accordance with paragraphs (c) and (h) of Rule 457 under the Securities Act, solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee. The fee with respect to the shares registered herein is based on the average of the high and low sale prices of the Registrant’s shares of Class A common stock reported by the Nasdaq Global Market on May 7, 2010.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

          This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed to register an additional 2,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $1.00 par value, available for issuance under the Kelly Services, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan includes a formula for the automatic increase in the number of shares available under the Plan, which is based on 10% of the number of shares of the Registrant’s Class A common stock outstanding at the end of the Registrant’s fiscal year, subject to certain adjustments.

          The Registrant initially registered 1,100,000 shares of Class A common stock for issuance under the Plan on a Form S-8 Registration Statement (File No. 333-125091) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 20, 2005.
