          INTERIM SERVICES INC. AND NORRELL CORPORATION MERGER APPROVED

           COMBINED $4 BILLION COMPANY POISED FOR GLOBAL LEADERSHIP IN
                            HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

         FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., and ATLANTA, Georgia, July 1, 1999 -- Interim
Services Inc. (NYSE: IS) and Norrell Corporation (NYSE: NRL), two of the world's
leading staffing and workforce consulting companies, today announced shareholder
approval of the merger of Norrell with Interim. The merger is expected to close
effective 5:00 p.m. July 2, 1999. The combined company will be traded on the
NYSE under the symbol "IS" beginning July 6, 1999.

         "Our shareholders have overwhelmingly approved this merger which
capitalizes upon the strength of the two best competitors in the staffing
industry and positions the Company for global leadership in the human capital
management arena," said Ray Marcy, president, CEO and chairman of Interim
Services Inc. "In addition, we have already made significant strides in
integrating the two companies, including the realignment of the combined $2
billion Commercial Staffing organization which will be headquartered in Atlanta.
We will continue the integration process and we look forward to the substantial
synergies that are anticipated to result."

         According to the merger agreement, shareholders of Norrell will receive
either 0.9 shares of Interim common stock or a cash payment of $18.7622. The
holders of approximately 12% of Norrell's common stock elected to receive cash
in lieu of Interim stock. Therefore, Interim will issue approximately 21 million
shares to former Norrell shareholders and convert existing Norrell stock options
into options to purchase approximately 1.7 million shares of Interim common
stock. The value of the transaction based upon the closing price of Interim
stock on June 30, 1999, and debt assumed is approximately $625 million.

         The company will operate through approximately 1,350 offices throughout
North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, with 1999 proforma revenues of
approximately $4 billion in 1999. It provides flexible staffing, consulting,
search/recruitment, managed services and outsourcing services. The Company is a
leading provider worldwide in the areas of accounting, information technology,
legal, human resources, sales and marketing, as well as administrative, clerical
and light industrial services.
