Corporate Governance Human Capital Kelly is a talent solutions company dedicated to connecting people to work in ways that enrich their lives, and our employees are critical to achieving this noble purpose. To compete and succeed in a highly competitive and rapidly evolving market, it is crucial that the Company attracts and retains experienced internal employees, as well as the talent we put to work for our customers. As part of these efforts, we strive to offer competitive total rewards programs, promote employee development, foster an inclusive and diverse environment, and give employees the opportunity to give back to their communities and make a social impact. The Company is committed to the health, safety, and wellness of our employees and talent. The success of our business is fundamentally connected to the well-being of our people. Accordingly, we implement policies and practices that align with applicable laws and regulations and are in the best interest of our employees, talent, and the communities in which we operate.

| As of December 29, 2024 we employed approximately 4,200 staff members in the United States and an additional 1,370 in our international locations. The Company’s retention rates for employees identified as high-performing and high-potential employees align with our comparable benchmark. |

| In addition to our internal employees, the Company recruits talent on behalf of customers globally. In 2024, we placed more than 400,000 individuals in positions with our customers. When Kelly remains the employer of record for our talent working at customer locations, we retain responsibilities for all assignments (including ensuring appropriate health and safety protocols in conjunction with our customers), wages, benefits, workers’ compensation insurance, and the employer’s share of applicable payroll taxes as well as the administration of the employees’ share of these taxes. We also offer our talent access to competitive health and benefit programs while they are working with us. |
