I. PURPOSE:

The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to solicit proposals to establish multiple contracts through competitive negotiations for Temporary Employment Services by Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech), an agency of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

II. CONTRACT PERIOD:

The term of this contract is for one year, or as negotiated. There will be an option for four (4) one­year renewals, or as negotiated.

Ill. BACKGROUND:

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) is located in Blacksburg, Virginia, approximately 40 miles southwest of Roanoke, Virginia, the major commercial hub of the area. In addition to the university's main campus in Blacksburg, major off campus locations include twelve agriculture experiment research stations, the Marion duPont Scott Equine Medical Center and graduate centers in Roanoke and Fairfax, Virginia. Regularly scheduled air service is provided at the Roanoke Regional Airport.

Dedicated to its motto, Ut Prosim (That I May Serve), Virginia Tech takes a hands-on, engaging approach to education, preparing scholars to be leaders in their fields and communities. As the Commonwealth's most comprehensive university and its leading research institution, Virginia Tech offers 240 undergraduate degree programs to more than 31,000 students and manages a research portfolio of nearly $513 million and employees approximately 12,000 employees. The university fulfills its land-grant mission of transforming knowledge to practice.through technological leadership and by fueling economic growth and job creation locally, regionally, and across Virginia.

In order for Virginia Tech to fulfill its mission, a well-trained and diverse workforce must be in place. The intent of Virginia Tech's Human Resources Department is to maintain a fully employed workforce of wage, salaried and student wage positions. However, certain unexpected and unpredictable event such as short-term projects, leaves, and voluntary terminations requires the university to utilize the services of temporary employment agencies. It is vital that Virginia Tech departments, on and off-campus, be able to fill unexpected vacancies on a temporary basis in an efficient and expeditious manner.

During the period of October 2012 through April 2017, the university spent approximately $800,000 for temporary employment services.

B. Specific Requirements Proposals should be as thorough and detailed as possible so that Virginia Tech may properly evaluate your capabilities to provide the required services. Offerors are required to submit the following information/items as a complete proposal:

1. General Information Form and addenda, if any, signed and filled out as required.

The completed the General Information Form is attached.

VT General Info.zip

2. Plan for providing temporary employment services: a. Describe Offerors ability to provide temporary employees on the Virginia Tech campus

located in Blacksburg, Virginia as well as off-campus offices located throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia.

As shown in the ManpowerGroup Virginia Office listing attached below, Manpower and Virginia Tech are

geographically compatible. ManpowerGroup has over 20 offices in the Virginia, allowing us to service

Virginia Tech in more locations than any other employment services firm .

The printed excel spreadsheet is attached.

Manpower Virginia Offices. xlsx

Our commitment to service Virginia Tech as your primary vendor extends to every location needing

temporary services - including locations where mileage to Manpower's closest office may hinder our

ability to service efficiently. In coordination with Virginia Tech, we will identify and subcontract to suitable

vendors in those areas. As another alternative , ManpowerGroup frequently operates remote recruiting

and placement sites on a periodic basis for a customer beyond the traditional geographic reach of a

ManpowerGroup office. Also, please note that ManpowerGroup is constantly opening new offices. Any

Virginia Tech location with large temporary staffing needs can be considered for a new office.

c. Describe the typical turn-around time for confirming the availability of a temporary placement.

This answer is quite different when referring to the processes of ManpowerGroup for clerical or industrial

orders or the processes of Experis. We can usually respond with candidates for clerical or industrial

orders within 1-3 days, shorter for basic skills and longer for particularly hard-to-find skills. Experis'

benchmark for submission of resumes is 48 hours after receipt of the job order, but for "hot" or hard-to­

find skill sets it can take as long as 5 days. However, ManpowerGroup will commit to a response to your request with a confirmation call within 30 minutes.

The following table illustrates approximate turnaround times for various job categories:

Quarterly Review Meetings Quarterly review meetings are an important aspect of ongoing account management for Manpower and

our clients. Manpower continually tracks and analyzes account activity in order to pro-actively identify

areas for service level improvements and to monitor our success. Each quarter, Manpower prepares

consolidated reports to share with our clients in the quarterly review meetings. The meetings provide the

opportunity for Manpower and the client to review the previous quarter activity, to discuss program

4

enhancements that have been implemented and to identify program enhancement goals for the upcoming

quarter.

Included in the quarterly review information are specifics regarding Manpower's ability to address any

servicing concerns or program enhancements . For example, by tracking turnover Manpower is able to

identify specific end reasons and implement retention programs that will directly impact the turnover

based on our experience with the employee population. In situations where recruiting is a significant

requirement for the success of a program, Manpower develops specific recruiting plans designed to

enhance our ability to attract the required skill sets. Other topics covered in the review may include:

• Job Classification Analysis

• Top Ten Service Locations

• Top Ten Skills Provided

• Pricing Comparison

• Associate Performance Appraisals - Summary and Analysis

• Safety Appraisal Survey

• Performance Metrics

• Service History: Volume, Location and Job Description

During the implementation of a partnership with a new client, part of the process is to jointly identify the

specific servicing requirements and determine how to measure success in each area. Quarterly review

meetings provide the opportunity for Manpower and our clients to closely monitor the success of the

program and to work toward continuous program improvement goals.

3. Rates: a. Identify recommended hourly and over-time rates for the position classifications listed in

Attachment C. Please see Virginia Tech Rate Sheet attached.

QI Virginia Tech Pay_Bill Rates (5).zip

b. Provide a plan for adjusting rates during the initial contract period and subsequent contract renewals.

Manpower reserves the right to modify the rates set forth in proportion to any legislatively mandated fees imposed by an agency of the state or federal government. which may be required by federal. state, or

local law such as FICA, FUTA, and State Unemployment Tax. The modification commences upon the effective date of such new or increased cost. Changes include any new or increased cost associated with

the passage of a federal or state law mandating any wage increase or benefits for associates.

c. Describe record keeping process that identifies the hours worked by the temporary employee.

Manpower's Direct Time The convenient, secure and simple way to handle time submittal

5

To provide significant time savings for Virginia Tech managers. associates, and minimize billing errors, Manpower has developed a cutting-edge time capture tool called Direct Time. Direct T ime is Manpower's

method of time capture to track and report the hours and days our associates work. Each week, Manpower's U.S. operations process more than 40,000 timeslips via Manpower Direct Time with positive and highly favorable results for all sides:

• Client supervisors appreciate the convenient, secure way Direct Time allows them to approve

hours and money expenses for our associates through a website.

• Associates like how easy it is to log hours and submit time data in Direct Time - either via the web or IVR telephone technology.

Our industry-leading timekeeping tool, built on proven time and expense reporting technology called PeopleNet, saves client time and makes the process much more simple and efficient:

• Time Savings - The automated tool captures the time and non-receiptable expense data {per diems. mileage, tolls) allowing the client to review all timeslips online. The client supervisor has

the opportunity to approve or reject each timeslip individually , or as a group if large number of associates are involved. The latter option still allows the client supervisor to drill down to examine

details and comments of individual timeslips.

• Process efficiencies - The tool's e-mail notifications automatically alert client supervisors when timeslips need to be reviewed. Approved timeslips are quickly transmitted to Manpower's payroll

centers for processing. Rejected timeslips are routed back for correction and resubmittal - again,

automatically accompanied with an e-mail notification.

A few hours exploring this tool now undoubtedly will save countless hours in the future. Let Manpower

arrange a demonstration of PeopleNet to show you first hand the host of benefits you can experience with

this automated time reporting system

d. Describe billing process.

Billing/Invoicing - Overview Critical information when you need it - the way you want it.

ManpowerGroup makes the billing/invoicing process easy and efficient to allow our clients to make

intelligent choices that affect the way they do business.

Process The billing process begins with the time slips that each associate completes and gets signed by their

Virginia Tech supervisor or from the data we receive electronically from an on-site electronic timekeeping system. ManpowerGroup operates two Support Centers in Louisville and Dallas for ManpowerGroup and

one Support Center in Phoenix for Experis to process payroll and billing information into the

ManpowerGroup pay-bill system.

ManpowerGroup's associates receive their direct deposits or paychecks weekly, regardless of the client's

invoicing schedule; however all Experis consultants are paid every other week. As part of our Sarbanes-

6

Oxley compliance, we must ensure that we maintain adequate financial control over our payroll process.

Direct Deposit 1s the primary method of payment, for those not enrolled in direct deposit paper paychecks

are ma1led directly to our associates from the regional payroll center. ManpowerGroup offers direct

deposit to all of its associates and provides an alternative Visa payroll card for those associates who do

not maintain an individual bank account.

The majority of our clients receive invoices on a weekly cycle. - Although custom invoice cycles can be

negotiated and considered in pricing. Invoices are processed by the ManpowerGroup system on

Wednesday evening, printed on Thursday, and mailed or sent electronically (preferred delivery method is

electronic or emailed) to our clients. Invoices can be consolidated and directed to one location or

distributed to a number of locations. depending on each client's needs.

There are a number of billing options and arrangements for Virg inia Tech to consider as we form this

alliance

Customized Invoicing

If Virginia Tech requires a special format or specific information on the invoice, we will work closely with

your representatives during implementation to ensure compatibility.

To implement the customization smoothly, we will review with the clients the additional data required, the

size of each data item, whether the data is constant or changes often, and the presentation preferences

for the data (i.e. breaking and/or subtotaling by expense code or department). Once ManpowerGroup and

the client agree upon formats and requirements that are most appropriate to the client's objectives,

ManpowerGroup will implement the customized invoice process. We can produce custom invoices

weekly or monthly.

Consolidated Invoicing The convenience of reviewing one invoice that includes all Virginia Tech locations throughout the country

can save you time and can allow you to further monitor associate activity and control spend if necessary.

Transmitted electronically through Electronic Data Interchange to one source - as opposed to multiple sources handling and processing multiple invoices - consolidated invoicing can save Virginia Tech

money by eliminating efforts by many to review and settle multiple statements.

When our clients require consolidated invoicing, we identify all client locations that are included in the

Virginia Tech agreement. We then perform a site match to indicate which ManpowerGroup offices will service these various locations. Corporately, we assign the Virginia Tech business a unique billing key

and instruct all ManpowerGroup offices that service the account to use that unique billing key for every

order Smee all Virginia Tech orders have that unique billing key, we consolidate the information into one

report based on the frequency you request

Delivery Options To accommodate our client's requirements. ManpowerGroup can deliver inv01ces in the following formats·

Invoice Formats

7

MS Excel Flat file

Adobe.pdf

Web uploads

Comma Delimited Text file

EDI XML

Our comprehensive invoicing system can consolidate your staffing invoice data for all locations and for all

vendors participating in the program. One invoice can contain detailed billing information for our services, as well as all subcontractor associates. Our system also allows us to consolidate and break invoicing by specific client information, such as PO Number, Division, Cost Center, etc.

Currently, all invoicing for the Experis is separate and delivered via paper. Please discuss any custom needs with your invoicing representative.

Confidential and Secure ManpowerGroup considers each client's individual needs and objectives to determine the most effective method to deliver invoicing. If a client requests invoicing via e-mail attachments, but would like to have

the e-mail encrypted, we will work with our Web Solutions department to arrange this level of security. For EDI invoicing, most client file transmissions are sent directly to a VAN , which secures the data prior to sending to the client's designated mailbox address.

e. Outline procedures for providing background screenings and identify any additional fees associated with this process.

Background Checks Helping to make smart hiring decisions

Today more than ever, companies have made it a priority to ensure a safe and secure work environment. Verifying an associate's identification and credentia ls is an integral part in making smart hiring decisions that affect the workplace

ManpowerGroup realizes this step in the screening process is essential and takes very seriously our responsibility to thoroughly examine an associate's background before the start of an assignment. ManpowerGroup conducts the following background checks as appropriate:

U.S. Employment Eligibility Verification

As the legal employer, we verify identity and U.S. employment eligibility for every associate and complete all necessary documentation as

required by federal law, including the Form 1-9.

Work History Verification

ManpowerGroup checks an applicant's work references by contacting former employers by phone or fax. For legal reasons, ManpowerGroup obtains the applicant's written consent for the release of this information.

Supplemental Background Checks

8

.'° \ In addition to the routine background checks noted earlier, l\llanpowerGroup is prepared to match the '--,

background checking requirements Virginia Tech uses to screen your permanent hires. ManpowerGroup

has teamed with a national background screening firm Sterling and Assurant to meet virtually any screening requirement Virginia Tech may have.

The cost of background checks are included in the mark up.

The following chart summarizes the most common supplemental background checks we can administer upon request:

Drug Screening

ManpowerGroup's standard drug screen is a six­

panel, oral fluid test conducted in the

ManpowerGroup office. There is also a 10-panel oral fluid test available. ManpowerGroup can also test our

associates with a five- or ten-panel urine test, as

requested, to ensure that our associates meet your

drug-free standards. The labs used for drug

screenings are SAMHSA certified labs.

Review of Department of Motor Vehicle Records

ManpowerGroup can examine an applicant's driving

history, by state, to determine the current status of

that individual's driver's license. This review reveals

any driving violations, convictions, or accidents for

the period of.time available from a.state's repository

of motor vehicle records. Some out of pocket access

fees may apply.

Employment History

The routine check is a formal, documented, in-depth

analysis of our associates' work history. This review

includes interviews with former employers to validate

information such as:

• Dates of employment • Salary

• Position • Reason for leaving

• Duties • Eligibility for rehire

Review of Criminal Conviction History

At the county, state or federal level, we can check

applicants for any convictions of both felony and

related misdemeanor convictions. This includes a

verification of the applicant's social security number.

Educational Record Verification

This review verifies educational information,

including academic degrees and dates of

attendance at a particular educational institution. ManpowerGroup also can verify the status of any

claimed credential or professional license.

National Credit File Check

Through the largest credit bureau in the country,

we access a full credit report. This includes

information such as payment histories, bankruptcy

proceedings, collection accounts, and civil

litigation records.

If there are any background checks or reviews that we have not included in this summary that Virginia Tech performs as part of its standard screening process, we are confident that we hold the resources to match your

requirements.

Our leadership position allows us to be a center for quality employment opportunities for people al all points in their career

paths. In 2013. the 3.4 million people we connected to opportunities and purpose worked 10 help more than 400,000 of our

clients meet their business ob1ect1ves. Seasoned professionals, skilled laborers. temporary lo permanent, parents returning

to work, seniors wanting to supplement pensions, previously unemployed youth and disabled individuals all turn to the

ManpowerGroup companies for employment poss1b1lities. Similarly, governments 1n the nations in wl1ich we operate look to

us to help provide employment opportunities and training to assist the unemployed 1n gaining the skills they need to enter

the workforce. We provide a bridge lo experience and employment, and help to build more sustainable communrties.

Our industry 1s large and fragmented, comprised or thousands of firms employing millions of people and generating billions

of United States dollars in annual revenues. It is also a highly competitive industry, reflecting several trends in the global

marketplace. notably increasing demand for skilled people and consolidation among chents and in the employment services industry itself.

We manage these trends by leveraging established streng ths, including one or the employment services industry's most

recognrzed and respected brands: geographic diversification; size and service scope: an innovative product mix: and a

strong client base. While staffing is an important aspect of our business. our strategy 1s focused on providing both the

skilled employees our clients need and high-value workforce management, outsourcing and consulting solutions.

Client demand for workforce solutions and services 1s dependent on the overall strength or the labor market and secular

trends toward greater workforce flexibility w1thrn each or the countries and territories 1n which we operate. Improving

economic growth typically results 1n increasing demand for labor, resulting 1n greater demand for our staffing services.

During periods or increasing demand, we are able to improve our profitability and operating leverage as our current cost base can support some increase in business without a similar increase in selling and administrative expenses.

Correspondingly, during periods of weak economic growth or economic contraction. the demand for our staffing services

typically declines. When demand drops, our operating profit 1s typically impacted unfavorably as we experience a

deleveraging of our selling and administrative expense base as expenses may not decline at the same pace as revenues. In

periods of economic contraction. we may have more signrficant expense deleverag1ng, as we believe it 1s prudent not lo

reduce selling and administrative expenses to levels that could negatively impact the long-term potential of our branch network and brands.

The nature of our operations is such that our most significant current asset is accounts receivable, with an average days

sales outstanding of approximately 55 days based on the markets where we do business. Our most significant current

liab11it1es are payroll related costs, which are generally paid either weekly or monthly. As the demand for our services

increases. we generally see an increase in our working capital needs, as we continue to pay our associates on a weekly or

monthly basis while the related accounts receivable are outstanding for much longer. which may result in a decline in

operating cash flows. Conversely, as the demand for our services declines, we generally see a decrease in our working

capital needs. as the existing accounts receivable are collected and not replaced at the same level, resulting 1n a decline of

our accounts receivable balance, with less of an effect on current liabilities due lo the shorter cycle time of the payroll

related items. This may result in an increase in our operating cash flows, however any such increase would not be sustainable 1n the event that the economic downturn continued for an extended period.

Our career management services are counter-cyclical to our staffing services. wh1Ll1 helps to offset the impact or an econo1rnc downturn on our overall f1nanc1al results.

Due to our industry's sensitivity to economic factors. the inherent difficulty 1n forecasting the direction and strength of the

economy and the short-term nature of staffing assignments. 11 1s difficult to forecast future demand for our services with

absoh1te certainty. As a result, we monitor a number of economic indicators, as well as recent business trends, to predict

future revenue trends for each of our reportable segments. Based upon these anticipated trends, we determine what level

of personnel and office investments are necessary lo take full advantage of growth opportunities.

Our business 1s organrzed and managed prnnanly on a geographic basis, with Right Management currently operating as a

separate global business unit. Each country and business unit generally have their own distinct operations and management

team. providing services under our global brands. We have an executive sponsor for each global brand who is responsible

for ensuring the integrity and consistency of delivery locally. Each operation reports directly or indirectly through a regional

manager, to a member of executive management. Given this reporting structure, all of our operations have been segregated

into the following reporting segments: Americas. which includes United States and Other Americas; Southern Europe,

which includes France, Italy and Other Southern Europe: Northe111 Europe: APME (Asia Pacific Middle East): and Right Management.

The Americas, Southern Europe, Northern Europe and APME segments derive a significant majority of their revenues from the placement of contingent workers. The remaining revenues· within these segments are derived from other workforce solutions and services, Including recruitment and assessment, training and development, arid ManpowerGroup Solutions. ManpowerGroup Solutions includes TBO, MSP, RPO, BTS, SWC and Language Services. Right Management's revenues are derived from. career management aild workforce consulting services. Segment revenues represent sales to external clients. Due to the nature of oi.Jr business, we generally do not have export sales. We provide services to a wide variety of clients, none of which individually comprises a significant portion of revenues for us as a whole or for any segment.

Financial Measures - Constant Currency and Organic Constant Currency Changes in our financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions. We provide "constant currency" and "organic constant currency" calculations in this report to remove the impact of these items. We express year-over-year variances that are calculated in constant currency and organic constant currency as a percentage.

When we use the term "constant currency," it tneans that we have translated financial data for a period into United States dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that we used to translate financial data for the previous period. We believe that this calculation is a useful measure, indicating the actual growth of our operations. We use constant currency results in our analysis of subsidiary or segment performance. We also use constant currency when analyzing our performance against that of our competitors. Substantially all of our subsidiaries derive revenues and incur expenses within a single country and, consequently, do not generally incur currency risks in connection with the conduct of their normal business operations. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates primarily impact reported e3rnings and not" our actual cash flow unless·earnings are repatriated.

When we use the term "organic constant currency," it means that we have further removed the impact of acquisitions in the current period from our constant currency calculation. We believe that this calculation is useful because it allows us to show the actual growth of our pre-existing business.

Constant currency and organic constant currency percent variances, along with a reconciliation of these amounts to certain of our reported results, are included on pages 36 and 37.

Results of Operations - Years Ended December 31, 2013. 2012 and 2011 In 2013, we expf:rienced revenue declines in most of our markets as demand for our services continued to be unfavorably impacted by the economic uncertainty. While we have seen Improving trends throughout the year in many of our markets in the Americas and Europe, our APME segment has seen continued declines due to the soft demand for our staffing/ interim services and fewer billing days in 2013 compared to 2012. Our'consolidated revenue growth-improved throughout the year, with a 6% decline in the first quarter improving to 1% growth in the fourth quarter as the global economy started to stabilize. Our staffing/interim business and our European permanent recruitment business declined during the year, while our ManpowerGroup Solutions business continued to see solid growth due mostly to growth in our RPO and MSP offerings. At Right Management, the decrease in demand for our talent management services persisted in 2013 as companies continued to delay discretionary spend through much of the year, while demand for our counter-cyclical outplacement services remained flat in 2013 compared to 2012.

Our gross profit margin in 2013 compared· to 2012 remained flat as the slight improvement in our staffing/interim gross profit margin was offset by the decline in our permanent recruitment business. Our staffing/interim gross profit margin improvement in 2013 was largely due to payroll tax credits related to the Credit d'lmpot pour la Competitivite et l'Emploi ("CICE") in France, with additional improvement from strong price discipline in the United States. These gains were largely offset by margin declines that we experienced in certain European and APME countries and territories due to continued pricing pressures. For additional information on the CICE payroll tax credit, see the Employment-Related Items section of Management's Discussion and Analysis.

We recorded $89.4 million of restructuring charges in 2013 as we further simplified our organization and recalibrated our cost base, a continuation of the simplification and cost recalibration plan we began in the fourth quarter of 2012 that impacted all of our segments as weH as our corporate functions. Selling and administrative expenses decreased 5.7% in constant currency in the year, or 7% excluding the restructuring charges in each year, as we are seeing the bSnefits of

these simpli fication and cost reca libration ac tions. Typically a slowdown in revenues like we saw in 2013 impacts our

operating profit unfavorably, as we generally experience a deleveraging of our selling and administrative expense base as

expenses may not change at the same pace as revenues. However, due to our simplification and recalibration actions, we

were able to decrease our selling and adm1r11strative expenses at a faster pace than the decrease in revenues, which

enabled us to better leverage our expenses and favorably impact our operating profit lor 2013.

We executed the simplilicat1on and cos! recalibration plan 1n the fourth quarter or 2012 on the premise that we were

entering into a conl1nued period of sort economic condi tions with a sluggish recovery. The goal of our plan was to simplify

our organization by creating the ngt1t agility and speed, and focuses around four different areas: organization, programs.

technology, and delivery. We achieved a reduction in selling and administrative expenses of $ 152 million in 2013, and

expect to realize an additional reduction of $40 million in selling and adm1nistrat1ve expenses in 2014 as a result of this plan.

The plan focused on recalibration of our costs and thus, we do not expect the cost savings specific to this plan to return as

our revenue volumes increase. The primary elements of the simplification and cost recalibration plan were implemented in

2013 and we will con tinue to evolve and enhance our delivery channels.

The year-over-year decrease in revenues from services of 2.1 % (-2.1% 1n constant currency and-2.4% 1n organic constant

currency) was attributed to :

• decreased demand for services 111 several of our markets within the Americas, Southern Europe and Northern Europe,

where revenues decreased 1.9% (-0.5% in constant currency), 0.2% (-3.6% in constant currency and -3,9% in organic

constant currency) and 0.6% (-1.7% 1n constant currency and -2.3% in organic constant currency), respecttvely;

• revenue declines in our larger markets of France and Italy of 5.8% (-6.0% in organic constant currency) and 0.3% 1n

constant currency, respectively, due lo the current economic environments in those countries;

• revenue decline 1n the United States of 1.4 % primarily due to a decrease in our larger strategic account client revenues

because or softening demand, a large client proiect in our Manpower business line that concluded 1n the first quarter of

2013 and strong pnce discipline on new business opportunities ;

• revenue decrease in APME of 10.3% (-1 .4% in constant currency) prima1ily due to the decline in demand for our staffing/

interim services, resulting from two fewer bill ing days and legislative changes in China fhat restricted the use of temporary

employment, and to a decline 111 our TBO revenues due to the loss of a Japanese client: and

• decreased demand for talent management services at Right Management. where these revenues decreased 7.1 % (-6.6%

in constant currency) : partially offset by

28 ManovwerGmup 20 13 Annual Repan Management·s Discussion & Analysis

• our acquisitions of two entities in April 2012, one in Southern Europe and one in the Americas, and one entity in April 2013 in Northern Europe, which combined to add 0.3% of revenue growth to our consolidated results.

The gross profit margin remained flat year-over-year as the 10 basis point (0:10%) favorable impact from the improvement in our staffing/interim margin was offset by a 10 basis point (-0.10%) unfavorable impact resulting from the 7.3% year-over­year decline in our permanent recruitment business. Our staffing/interim margins improved slightly in 2013 as the increases in the United States and Southern Europe, due to the benefit of the CICE payroll tax credit, were offset by lower gross profit margins in many European and APME markets and a social security reserve recorded in France.

The 5.8% decline in selling and administrative expenses in 2013 (-5.7% in constant currency and -6.0% in organic constant currency) was attributed to:

• a 6.1% decrease in our organic salary-related costs, because of lower headcount;

• a 6.3% decrease in lease costs because we closed over 300 offices in 2013, as a result of office consol!dations and delivery model changes;

• a decrease in legal costs in 2013 compared to 2012, primarily related to the $10 million settlement agreement in 2012 in connection with a lawsuit involvlng allegations regarding the Company's vacation pay practices in Illinois; and

• a 10.5% decrease in non-personnel related costs, excluding legal and lease costs noted above, as a result of the simplification and.cost recalibration actions taken; partially offset by

• restruct~ring costs of $89.4 million, comprised of $18.0 million in the Americas, $7.8 million in Southern Europe, $39.0 million in Northern Europe, $6.2 million in APME, $14.0 million at Right Management and $4.4 mllllon in corporate expenses in 2013, compared to restructuring costs of $48.8 million, comprised of $9.8 million in the Americas, $3.8 million in Southern Europe, $13.2 million in Northern Europe, $0.7 million in APME, $10.9 million at Right Management and $10.4 million in corporate expenses in 2012; and

• the additional recurring selllng and administrative costs as a result of the acquisitions in Southern Europe, Northern Europe and the Americas.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues decreased 60 basis points (-0.60%) in 2013 compared to 2012. The change in selling and administrative expense as a percent of revenues consists of:

• a 50 basis point (-0.50%) favorable impact due to the decrease in our organic salary-related costs and lease costs;

• a 20 basis point (-0.20%) favorable impact due to the decrease of non-personnel related costs, excluding legal and lease costs noted above, as a result of the simplification and cost recalibration actions taken; and

• a 10 basis point (-0.10%) favorable Impact due to the decrease in legal costs as noted above; partially offset by

• a 20 basis point (0.20%) increase due to the restructuring costs of $89.4 million in 2013 compared to $48.8 million in 2012.

Interest and other expenses are comprised of interest, foreign exchange gains and losses and other miscellaneous non­operating income and expenses. Interest and other expenses were $36.4 million in 2013 compared to $43.3 million in 2012. Net interest expense decreased $1.8 million In 2013 to $33.4 million from $35.2 million in 2012 due to lower debt levels as we repaid our €200 million Notes in June 2013 with cash. Other expenses were $3.0 million in 2013 compared to $8.1 million in 2012. This decrease is due partly to the increase in equity investment income in 2013 compared to 2012, primarily related to a gain on sale of investments by our minority-owned Swiss Franchise recorded In 2013.

We recorded an income tax expense at an effective rate of 39.4% in 2013, as compared to an effective rate of 46.4% in 2012. The 2013 rate was favorably impacted by a change in the overall mix of earnings, primarily an increase to non-U.S. income, utilization of net operating losses, and by the reinstatement of the United States Federal Work Opportunity Credit ("WOTC"). The WOTC was retroactively reinstated 10 January 1, 2012 as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act, which was enacted on January 2, 2013. We recognized the $7.0 million tax benefit related to 2012 during the first quarter of 2013, the period during which the law was enacted. The American Taxpayer Relief Act also extended the WOTC through December 31, 2013. The 39.4% rate is higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the French business tax and other permanent items.

Net earnings per share - diluted was $3.62 in 2013 compared to $2.47 in 2012. Foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted net earnings per share - diluted by approximately $0.01 In 2013.

Weighted average shares - diluted decreased 0.7% to 79.6 million in 2013 from 80.1 million in 2012. This decrease is the result of the full-year impact of share repurchases we made in 2012, partially offset by an increase in the dilutive effect of share-based awards due to the exercises in 2013 and the increase In our share price.

fhe year-over-year decrease in revenues from services of 6.0% (-1.4% in constant currency and -2.0% in organic constant

currency) was attributed to:

• decreased demand for services in several of our markets within Southern Europe and Northern Europe, where revenues

decreased 11.7% (-4.2% in constant currency and -5.3% in organic constant currency) and 6.3% (-1.3% in constant

currency). respectively. Several of our larger markets such as France and Italy expenenced revenue declines of 12.2%

(-4.6% in constant currency and -6.1% in organic constant currency) and 15.8% (-8.9% 1n constant currency),

respectively, due to the current economic environment in these countries;

• revenue decline in t11e United States of 4.0% primarily due to a decrease of our key account client revenues because ol

softening demand as well as stronger pricing discipline on new business opportunities;

• decreased demand for talent management services at Right Management, where these revenues decreased 12.8%

(-11.2% 1n constant currency): and

• a 4.6% decrease due to the impact ot currency exchange rates; partially offset by

• our acquisitions of lhree entities in APME during April 2011, two acquisi lions in Soulhern Europe at the end of SeP,tember

2011 and in April 2012, and one acquisition In the Americas during April 2012, which combined to add 0.6% of revenue

growth to our consolidated results;

• Other Americas and APME experienced revenue growlh of 9.6% and 1.6%, respectively, 1n organic constant currency; and

• increased demand for our outplacement services al Right Managemenl, where these revenues increased 10.1% (12.2%

1n constanl currency).

The year-over-year 20 basis poin1 (-0.20%) decrease in gross profit margin was primarily attributed o:

• a 40 basis prnnt (-0.40%) decline from our staff1ng/1ntenm business primarily related to pricing pressures 1n some o our

European markets and within the Experis business line in the United States; partially offset by

• a 10 basis point (0.10%) favorable impact from strong growth and Improved margins In Right Management's higher­

margin outplacement services; and

• a 10 basis point (0.10%) increase due to the impact ot currency exchan e rates.

The 4.8% decline in selling and adrn1nistraflve expenses 1112012 (-0.8% 1n constant currency and - 1.5% 1n organic constant currency) was attributed to:

• a decrease in our organic salary-related costs. because of lower lieadcount and lower variable incentive-based costs;

• a 4.0% decrease due to the impact of currency exchange rates: partially offset by

• restructuring costs of $48.8 milhon:

• legal costs of $10.0 million 1n the United States, pnmanly related to a settlement agreement 1n connection with a lawsuit involving allegations regarding the Company's vacation pay practices 1n Illinois; and

• the additional recurring selling and adm1nistrat1ve costs as a result of the acquisitions 1n Southern Europe. APME and the Amencas.

Selling and adm1nistrat1ve expenses as a percent of revenues increased 20 basis points (0.20%) in 2012 compared to 2011 . rhe change 1n selling and administrative expense as a percent of revenues consists of:

• a 15 basis point {0.15%) increase due to the restructuring costs of $48.8 million tn 2012 compared lo $23.1 million it1 2011; and

• a 5 basts point (0.050o) increase due to the legal costs of $10.0 mill1on 1n the United States as noted abov~.

Interest and other expenses were $43.3 million 1n 2012 compared to $4'1.3 mllhon in 2011. Net interest expense decreased $0.3 million in 2012 to $35.2 million from $35.5 million 1n 2011 due to lower interest rates. Other expenses decreased $0.7 million in 2012 due primarily to a $1.0 million decrease in translation losses.

We recorded an income tax expense at an effective rate of 46.4% for 2012. as compared to an effective rate of 47.6% for 2011. The 2012 tax rate 1s lower than the 2011 rate due to the benefits resulting from the changes 1n our legal ent1ly structure. The 46.4% effective tax rate 1s higher than the Untied States Federal statutory rate of 35% due pnmarily to valuation allowances. other permanent items. discrete items related to restructuring costs described further 1n Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. and the French business tax.

Net earnings per share - diluted was $2.47 in 2012 compared to $3.04 in 2011. Foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted net earnings per share - dtlutecf by approximately $0.14 per share 1n 2012.

Weighted average shares - diluted decreased 3.3% to 80.1 million 1n 2012 from 82.8 1111lho11 in 2011. This decrease was primarily a result of the repurchase of 3.6 million shares in 2012.

SEGMENT RESULTS

We evaluate pertormance based on operating unit profit ("OUP"), which 1s equal to segment revenues less direct costs and branch and national headquarters operating costs. This profit measure does not include goodwill and intangible asset 1mpa1rment charges or amortization ot 1ntang1ble assets related to acquisitions, interest and other income and expense amounts or income taxes.

On a consolidated basis, the French business tax is reported in prov1s1on for income taxes, ,n accordance with tlie current accounting guidance on income taxes. Pnor to the second quarter of 2013, we internally reviewed the financial results of our French operations including the French business tax within OUP given the operational nature of these taxes. Whtie we continue to view this tax as operational, during the second quarter of 2013 we changed our internal reporting to exclude the French business tax from the OUP of our France reportable segment. Therefore. we are no longer required to show the business tax amount separately to reconcile to the consolidated results. All previously reported segment results have been restated to conform to the current year presentation. This change 1n segment reporting has no impact on our reporting of consolidated results.

Americas - The Americas segment is cornpnsed of 722 Company-owned

branch offices and 180 stand-alone franchise offices. In the Americas, revenues

from services decreased 1.9% (-0.5% in constant currency) in 2013 compared

to 2012. In the United States, revenues from services declined 1.4% in 2013 compared to 2012. The revenue decline in the United States was attributable to a

decline 1n staffing/interim services 1n the Manpower and Experis business lines

due to softening demand from our larger strategic accounts 1n 2013 compared to

2012, a large client project in our Manpower business line that concluded in the

fi rst quarter of 2013 and strong price discipline in selectively accepting new

business opportunities. These declines were partia lly offset by an increase in

ManpowerGroup Solutions revenues of 14.2% and an increase in our permanent

recruitment revenues of 4.4% in the United States in 2013 compared to 2012. In Other Americas. revenues from services declined 2.7% (1.2% increase in

constant currency and 1.1 % increase in organi constant currency) in 201 :i compared to 2012, with a revenue decline in Argentina of 12.7%. partially offset

by revenue increases 1n Canada ol .8% (4 .0% 1n organic constant currency) and Mexico of 2.5%.

In 2012, revenues from services decreased 1.2% (0.5% increase ,n constant currency and 0.4% increase in orgallic

constant currency) compared to 201 1. In the United States, revenues from services declined 4 .0% in 20 t 2 compared to

201 1. The revenu decline in the United States was attributable to staffing/interim services within 1he Manpower and Experis business lines as demand from our larger strategic accounts softened in 20 12 compared to 2011 , and we

rna1nta1ned stronger pnc1ng discipline on new business opportunities. These declines were partially offset by an increase in

United States permanent recruitment revenues of 17.3% in 2012 compared to 201 1. In Other Americas. revenues from

services Improved 4.8% (9.9% In constant currency and 9.6% in organic constant currency) in 2012 compared to 2011 , led

by revenue growth In Canada, Mexico and Argen1ina of 19.2% . 10.0% and 8.2%, respectively, in constant currency (16.2% growth in Canada in organic constant currency).

Gross profit margin increased in 2013 compared to 2012 due to the favorable lmpact of II proved staffing/interim gross

profit margin resulting from s1ronger pricing discipline 1n the U111ted States. as well as continued growth in our

ManpowerGroup Solutions and permanent recruitment businesses. In 2012, gross profit margin increased slightly as the

Increase in our permanent recruitment business was partially offset by tho negative Impact from our interim business due

to pricing pressures. an increase in unbillable time and a decrease due to the reduced FICA taxes from tho one-time Hire Act credits in the United States in 2011 tha did no occur in 20 2.

In 2013. selling and administrative expenses decreased 5.6% (-4.5% in constant currency) due to S10.0 mill ion of legal

costs incurred in 2012 and declines in salary-related and lease costs as a resul t of the cost recalibrat ion plan. partially offset

by an increase in restructuring costs to $18.0 mill ion recorded in 2013 compared to $9.8 million 1n 2012. In 2012, selling and

administrative expenses increased 5.7% in constant currency due mostly to $9.8 million of restructuring costs and $10.0 m1ll1on of legal costs incurred 1n 2012 as well as an increase 111 bad debt expense 1n Other Americas as a result of some

uncollectlble accounts receivable. The increase was also due to additional t1eadcount 111 Mexico, Canada and Brazil to meet

the increased demand In those countries and high inflation in Argentina. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease

In the United States. excluding the restructuring and I gal costs, due primarily to a decrease in variable incentive-based

compensation and lower office lease costs.

OUP margin ,n the Americas was 3.2% . 2.4% and 3.1% for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. In the United States,

OUP margin was 3.4%, 2.0% and 3.0% in 2013. 2012 and 2011, respectively. The 2013 margin increase in the United

States was due to declines in salary-related and lease costs as a result of the cost recalibration plan, the 2012 legal costs and the improvement in the gross profit margin as noted above, partially offset by tl1e increase In restructuring costs. Other

Americas OUP margin was 2.8%. 3.2% and 3.2% in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in the Other Americas

OUP margin was due to the increase In restructuring costs in 2013 compared to 2012. The margin decrease in the Americas

1n 2012 was pnmanly due to he United States as a result ot the restructuring and legal costs noted above. as well as

expense deleveraging as we did not decrease expenses as quickly as revenues declined.

Southern Eur ope - In 2013. revenues from services in Southern Europe, which

includes operations in France and I aly, decreased 0.2% 1-3.6% 1n constan1

currency and -3.9% in organic constant urrency) compared to 2012. In 2013,

revenues from services decreased 6.0% 1n organic constant currency in France (which represents 73.0% of Southern Europe's revenues) and decreased 0.3% in

constant currency in Italy (which represents 15.0% of Southern Europe's

revenues). The ctecrease 1n France is due primarily to softening demand 1n the

staff ing/interim business and a 23.5% decline in constant currency 1n the

permanent recrui tment business. The decrease in Italy is due to a slight decrease

1n our staffing/interim services. In Other Southern Europe, revenues from services

increased 12.5% (7.9% in constant currency and 6.1 % in organir. const nt

currency) in 2013 compared to 2012 driven y the revenue increase in Por1ugal,

due to increased demand in the Manpower staffing and ManpowerGroup

Solution businesses, and in Spain, due mostly to an acquisition of some client

from a local competitor 1n ,July 2013.

In 201 2, revenu s from services in Southern Europe decreased 11.7% (-4.2% 1n constant currency and -5.3% in organic constant currency) compared to 2011.

In 2012, revenues from services decreased 6.1% 1n organic constant currency in France and decreased 8.9% in constant

currency in Italy and I.I% (6.9% increase in constant currency) in Other Southern Europe compared to 2011. These

decreases 111 France and Italy were due primarily to a softening demand in the starring/interim business as well as a 21.2%

decline 1n constant currency in our permanent recrui tment business, mostly driven by the funher winding down of the Pole

Emploi contract In France.

Gross profit margin increased in 2013 compared to 2012 due pnmarily to 1he CICE payroll tax credit 1n France, which was partially offset by the additional social security reserve recorded 1n France in 2013, the decrease in our permanent

recruitment business, and pricing pressures 1n the small/medium-sized business in France and in Italy that unfavorabl

impacted staffing/interim gross margins. In 2012, gross profit margin remained nat compared to 2011 as the improvement

related to our two acquisitions 1n France wns offs I by the decrease in our permanent recruitment business, including th

further wind down of the Pole Ernploi contract in France, and pnc1ng pressures in Italy that unfavorably impacted staffing/

interim gross margins.

In 2013, selling and administrative expenses decreased 3.8°a (- 6.9% 1n constant currency and -7.2% 1n organic constant

currency) compared to 2012 primarily related to the dec1ease in organic salary-related costs due to lower headcount,

partially oflset by an increase in restructunng costs lo $7.8 million recorded in 2013 compared to $3.8 million in 2012 and

the add1t1onal recurring selling and administrative costs resulting 1rorn the 2012 Damilo acquisition in France. In 2012, selling

and administrative expenses decreased 7.6% (- 0.1% in constant currency and - 2.4% in organic constant currency) compared to 2011. The decrease in selling and adm1nistral1ve expenses was due to lower organic salary-related costs as

headcount was reduced. partially offset by the additional cosls from the Proservia and Damita acquisitions, additional bad

debt expense incurred 1n France and Italy as a result of collection issues with certain clients, and $3.8 million of restructuring

costs in 2012 compared 10 $1.5 million in 2011.

OUP margin in Southern Europe was 3.7%, 2.6% and 3.1 Vo for 2013, 2012 and 20 11 , resp ct1vely. OUP margin increased

in 2013 primarily due lo France. where the OUP margin was 3.8%, 2.4%, and 2.7% in 2013. 2012 and 2011. respectively.

France's margin increase in 2013 was due to the improvement in tile gros,, profit margin and l11e decrease in salary-related

costs due to lower headcount, partially offset by !ho increase in restructuring costs in 2013 compared lo 2012. Italy's OUP

margin was 4.9%. 4.3% and 5.9% in 2013, 2012 and 2011. respectively. Italy's margin increase 1n 2013 was due to the

decrease 1n salary-related and lease costs from lower headcount and fewer offices, partially offset by the increase n

restructuring costs in 2013 compared to 2012. Other Southern Europe's OUP margin was 1.4%, 1.3% and 1.4% in 2013,

2012 and 2011. respecuvely. Other Southern Europe's slight margin increase 1n 2013 was due to the decrease in orgarnc salary-related costs partially offset by the decrease in the gross profit margin and increase 1n restructuring costs in 2013 compared to 2012. The margin decrease In Southern Europe in 2012 was primarily due to France as the increase in the

gross profit margin d1cl not fully compensate for the deleverag1ng of expenses as we did not decrease selling ancJ

administra1ive expenses lo the extent of the revenlJB decline as well the margin decrease 1n Italy due to the decrease in

gross profit margin and deleverag1ng of expenses.

Northern Europe - In Northern Europe, which includes operations in the United Kingdom, he Nordics, Germany and the Netherlands {comprising 30.7%. 23.1 %,

12.1%. and 9.6%, respectively, of Northern Europe's revenues) , revenues trom services decreased 0.6% (-1.7% in constant currency and -2.3% in organic constant currency) 1n 2013 as compared to 2012. The decrease 1n revenues from services was primarily attributable to the 8.2% decline in constant currency in our Experts business line, whicl, saw softening demand for IT services among our larger clients, 1n both our interim and permanent recruitment businesses.

In 2012, revenues from services in Northern Europe decreased 6.3% (- 1.3% 1n constant currency) primarily attributable to declines in our Experis business line. which saw softening demand In both interim and permanent recruitment. as well as a decline in our ManpowerGroup Solutions business. This decline was partially offset by growth in our Manpower business line. primarily in the United Kingdom.

Gross profit margin decreased in 2013 due to the decline in our staffing/interim margins as we experienced lower bench utiliza11on in our Manpower business line in Sweden and new collective labor agreements and higher holiday pay costs 1n Germany, encounlered general pricing pressures in several marl,ets, and saw a 9.8% decrease in constant currency in our permanent recruitment business. In 2012, gross profit margin decreased due to the decline in our staffing/rntenm margins as we had an increase of unbillable labor due to lower bench utilization and higher vacation pay in Germany and Sweden, and general pnc1ng pressures !n the Netherlands. The decrease in 2012 was also due to the business mix changes ,n our revenues, as staffing/interim revenue growth came from our lower-margin United Kingdom market. and our higher-margin permanent recruitment and ManpowerGroup Solutions revenues declined.

In 2013, selling nd administrative expenses decreased 3.8% (-5.3% decrease in constan1 currency and -5.9% in organic constant currency) compared to 2012. The decrease In selling and administrative expenses was due primarily to lower headcount. which reduced compensation-related expenses such as salaries and variable incentive-based costs. lower lease costs, and the additional cost savings from the simplification and cost recalibration plan put in place in the fourth quarter of 2012, partially offset by an increase in restructuring costs to $39.0 million recorded rn 2013 compared to $13.2 million in 2012 and the additional recurring sell ing and administrative costs resulting from an acquisition ,n April 2013. In 2012, selling and administrative expenses decreased 9.6% (-'1.4% in constant currency) compared to 2011 due primarily to lower headcount. which reduced comp nsation- related expenses such as salaries and variable incentive-based costs, and overall tighter expense controls.

OUP margin for Northern Europe was 2.4%, 2.8% and 3.5% in 2013. 2012 and 2011 , respectively. The OUP margin declined 1n 2013 as the decrease in compensation-related expenses and lease costs as well as additional cost savings from the s1mplificat1on and cost recaiib,ation plan was not enough to offset the decrease in the gross profit margin and the increase in restructuring costs in 20 3. The margin d cline in 2012 was primafily due to the decline in gross profit margin.

APME - In 2013, revenues from services for APME decreased 10.3% (-1.4% in constant currency) compared to 2012. In Japan {which represents 37.7% of APME's revenues), revenues trom services decreased 3. 7% 1n constant currency due primarily to soft demand for our staffing/interim services as a result of leg1slat1ve changes and fewer billing days in 2013 compared to 2012, and the run-off of a large TSO client contract that began to wind down in early 2013, partially otfset by a 31.7% increase in constant currency in the permanen recrui tment busine s. In Australia (which represents 23.5% of APME's revenues), revenues from services were down 6.6% in constant currency compared to 2012 due to the decreased demand for interim services in our Experis business line, partially offset by an increase in the permanent recruitment business.

In 20 12, revenues r,om services for APME increased 2.5% (3 .1 % in constant currency and 1.6% n organic constant currency) compared to 2011. China and India both made acquisitions in 2011, which significantly Increased their revenues. Excluding acquisitions, revenue growth in constant currency for 2012 in China and India was 11.4% and 17.5%, respectrvely. In Japan. we saw a slight decrease

of 0.2% in constant currency for 2012 due 10 declining demand for our staffing services within our Manpower business line,

offset by a 16.6% increase in the combined Experis and ManpowerGroup Solutions business lines, compared to 2011 . In

Australia, revenues we,e down 6.0% 1n constant currency for 2012 compared to 2011 due to the decreased demand

resulting from thrnr economic slowdown.

Gross profit margin decreased 1n 2013 compared lo 2012 due to a decrease 1n our staffing/interim gross profit margin frorn

modest pricing pressures and change in business mix, as well as the 5.3% decline 1n constant currency in our permanent

recruitment business. In 2012, gross profit margin decreased due to the margin declines in our higher-margin ManpowerGroup Solutions business as well as a slight margin decline in our slaffing/interim business.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased 10.4% (-1.6% 1n constant currency) 1n 2013 compared to 2012 related to

2012. selling and administrative expenses decreased 3.6% (-3.5% 1n constant currency) compared to 2011 due o productiv11y improvements along with tigl1ter expense controls.

OUP margin for APME was 2.9%, 3.3%, and 3.0% 1n 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The OUP margin decrease in 2013

was due to the decrease in our gross profi t margin, increase 1n restructuring costs and the impact of fewer billing days, partially offset by the decrease 1n salary-r lated costs due to lower headcount. The improvement 1n 2012 was due to

productivity improvements and tigh ter expense controls as we we1e abl to decrease our selling and administrative expenses while revenues increased.

Right Management - Rigl11 Management Is a leading global provider of alent

and career management (also known as outplacement services) workforce solutions, operating in over 130 offices in more than 50 countries and territories.

In 2013, revenues from services ecreased 3.6% (-2.1% in constant currency)

due to the 7.1% (-6.6% 1n constant currency) decline in demand for our talent

management business. Our counter-cyclical outplacement services remained flat

in constant currency 1n 2013 compared o 2012.

In 2012, revenues from services increased 1.5% (3.4% in constant currency). The

increase was due to the growth 1n our outplacement services, which were up

10.1% (12.2% in constant currency) in 2012 compared to 2011, par1ially offset

by a 12.8% (11.2% 1n constant currency) decline 1n demand for our talent

management business. as we saw a longer sales cycle as clients deferred their

discretionary spending.

Gross profit margin decreased 1n 2013 compared to 2012 due lo the margin deterioration in both the outplacement business

and talent management business, partially offset by the change in business mix as the higher-m rgin outplacemen1

business represented a greater percentage of the revenue mix. In 2012, gross profit margin increased due to the margin

Improvement 1n each business line and the business mix chan es in our revenues, as we saw an increase In the higher­

margin outplacement services and a decrease in the lower-margin talent management business.

In 2013, selling and adm1nistrahve expenses decreased 8.5% (-7.5 % 111 conslant cunency) compared to 2012 due to the

cost savings from the simplification and cost recalibration plan put 1n place in 2012, partially offset by an increase 1n

restructuring cosis to $ 14.0 million 1n 2013 compared to $10.9 million in 2012. In 2012, selling and administrative expenses

decreased 1.7% (0.4% increase 1n constant currency) compared to 2011 as the cost savings from the restructuring plan to

streamline the office infrastructure and management organization favorably impacted expense levels.

OUP margin for Right Management was 6.4%, 4.1% nd -0.4% for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The OUP margin for

2013 improved due to the decrease in selling and administrative expenses from the cost savings from the simplification and

cost recalibration plan noted above, partially offset by the decrease 1n the gross profit margin and the increase 1n restructuring costs in 2013. OUP margin in 2012 was higher compared to 2011 due to the greater mix of outplacement

business as well as the decrease in selling and administrative expenses due to cost savings from the restructuring plan noted above, offset. in part, by the $ 10.9 mill ion of restructuring costs incurred in 2012 comparer! to $5.5 million 1n 2011.

Cash Sources and Uses Cash used to fund our operatlons is primarily generated through operating activities and provided by our existing credit facilities. We believe that our available cash and our existlng credit facilities are sufficient to cover our cash needs for the foreseeable future. We assess and monitor our liquidlty and capital resources globally. We use a global cash pooling arrangement, intercompany lending, and some local credit lines to meet funding needs and allocate our capital resources among our various entitles. During 2013, we repatriated $136.2 million of our foreign earnings. As of December 31, 2013, we had an additional $446.3 million of cash held by foreign subsidiaries that was not available to fund domestic operations unless repatriated. We anticipate cash repatriations to the United $tales from certain international subsidiaries and have provided for deferred taxes related to those foreign earnings not considered to be permanently invested. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we identified approximately $264.3 million and $341.1 million, respectively, of non-United States funds that are not permanently invested. Related to these non-United States earnings that may be remitted, we recorded a deferred tax liability of $16.7 million and $15.7 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Our principal ongoing cash needs are to finance working capital. capital expenditures, debt payments. inte1est expense, share repurchases, dividends and acqu1sit1ons. Working capital 1s primarily 1n the form of trade receivables. which generally increase as revenues increase. The amount of financing necessa1 y to support revenue growth depends on receivables turnover. which differs 1n each market where we operate.

Cash provided by opAraling activities was $396.7 million, $331.6 million and $69.2 m11t1on for 2013, 2012 and 2011. respectively. The increase in cash generated from operahng activ1hes in 2013 from 2012 1s primarily attributable to the higher operating earnings in 2013. The increase 1112012 compared to 2011 was primarily attributable to decreased working capital needs as a result of the declining revenues and a 1.2 day decrease in our Days Sates Outstanding ("DSO"). Changes 1n operating assets and liabilities utilized $50.9 million of cash 1n 2013 as compared to $13.8 million 1n 2012 and S367.6 million 1n 2011.

Accounts receivable increased to $4,277.9 million as of December 31, 2013 from $'1179.0 million as of December 31. 2012. pnmarity due to increased business volume and the change 1n exchange rates. Utilizing exchange rates as of December 31. 2012. the December 31. 2013 balance would have been approximately $32.8 million tower than reported.

Capital expenditures were $4'1.7 million. S72.0 million and $64.9 million dunng 2013. 2012 and 2011, respectively. These expenditures were primarily comprised of purchases of computer equipment, office furniture and other costs related to office openings and refurbishments. as well as capitalized software costs of $0.5 million, S3.3 million and $0.4 million 1n 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

From time to time. we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world. 1nctud1ng franchises. The total cash consideration paid for acqu1s1tions. net of cash acquired, for the years ended December 31. 2013. 2012 and 2011 was $46.3 million, $49.0 million anci $49.0 million, respectively. Goociwilt and intangible assets resulting from the 2013 acqu1sit1ons. the maionty of which took place in the United Kingdom and Norway, were $52.2 million and $10.1 million. respectively, as of December 31, 2013. Goodwill and intangible assets res11lt1ng from the 2012 acqu1sit1ons were $'16.2 million and $7.6 million as of December 31, 2012, respectively.

On April 16, 2012, we acquired Dam1lo Group ("Oamilo"), a French firm specializing 1n IT design solutions. for total consideration. net of cash acquired. of €21.2 ($28.0) million. Goodwill arising from this transaction was €30.8 ($40.6) million. The assumed liabilities and acquired assets, net of goodwill, related intangible assets and cash arising from the transaclton were €33.8 ($44.6) million and €17.9 ($23.6) m1ll1on, respectively. The related intangible assets were €6.3 ($8.0) million, €5.8 ($7.6) million and €5.0 ($6.8) million as of April 16. 2012, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

In 2011. we acquired t11e shares and voting rights of Proserv1a SA {"Proservia"), a provider of Information technology and systems engineering solutions in France. The purchase pnce was €14.89 ($19.93) per share. The total consideration. net of cash acquired. was (21.6 ($29.4) million. Goodwill arising from this transaction was €20.7 ($27.7) million. The related intangible assets were C9A ($12.'1) million and €8.1 ($11 .2) million as of December 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively.

Net debt payments were $271.3 million for 2013, as compared to net borrowings of $41.7 million and $15.3 million in 2012 and 2011 , respectively. In June 2013, we paid off our €200.0 million 4.75% notes with available cash upon maturity. We use excess cash to pay down borrowings under tac1lit1es when appropriate.

In December 20 12 and November 2011, t11e Board of Directors aul11orized the repurchase of 8.0 million and 3.0 million shares of our common stock, respectively. Share repurchases may be made flom time to time through a variety of methods. including open market purchases. block transactions. privately negotiated transactions. accelerated share repurchase programs, forward repurchase agreements or similar facililies. No repurchases were made in 2013. In 2012, we repurchased a total of 3.6 million shares, comprised of 0.6 million shares under a previous authorization and 3.0 million shares under the 2011 authorization. at a total cost of $138.2 million. In 2011, we repurchased a total of 2.6 million shares under previous authonzations at a total cost ot $104.5 million. As of December 31, 2013, there were 8.0 million shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2012 authorization and no shares remaining under any previous authorizations.

We recorded net restructuring costs of £89.4 million, $48.8 million and $23.1 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively,

In selling and administrative expens s, primarily relat d to sev ranees and Hice closures and consolidations In multiple

countries. These expen es are net of reversals of previous accruals resulting mainly from larger-than-estimated cost savings

from subleasing and lease buyouts. During 2013, we n1ade payments of $82.4 million out of our restructuring re erve. We

expect a majority of the remaining $48.4 million reserve will be paid in 2014. (See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial

Statements tor Further information.)

We have entered into guarantee contracts and stand-by letters of credit that total approximately $156.5 million and

$166.8 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively ($118.2 million and $128.9 million tor guarantees. respectively,

and $38.3 million and $37.9 million for stand-by letters or credit, resp ctively). Guarantees primarily relate lo bank

accounts, operating leases an indebtedness. The stand-by letters of credit relate to workers· compensation, operating leases and indebtedness. If

certain cond1llons were met under these arrangements. we would be required

10 satisfy our obligation in cash. Due lo the nature of these arrangements ancJ

our historical experience. we do no expect to make any significant payments

under these arrangements. Therefore. they have been excluded from out aggregate commitments identified above. The cost of these guarantees and

When !he €350.0 million Noles mature. we plan to repay the amount w1H1 available cash, borrowings under our $600.0

million revolving credit facility or a new borrowing. The credit terms. including interest rate and facility fees. of any

replacement borrowings will be dependent upon the cond1t1on of the credit markets at Iha! time. We currently do not

anticipate any problems accessing the credit markets should we clecide to replace the €350.0 million Notes.

The €350.0 million Notes have been designated as a hedge of our net 1nvestrnenl 1n subsidiaries with a euro-functional

currency. Since our net investment in these subsidiaries exceeds the respective amouni of lhe designated borrowings.

lranslatton gains or losses related to these borrowings are included as a componenl of accumulated other comprehensive

income. (See Significanl Matters Affecting Results of Operations and Noles 7 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial S1atements for further information.)

REVOLVING CREOIT AGREEMENT

On October 15, 2013. we amended and restated our Five-Year Credit Agreement ("the Amended Agreement") with a

syndicate of commercial banks to. among other things: decrease the revolving commitments from $800.0 million to $600.0 million. revise the termination date of the facility from October 5. 2016 to October 15, 2018, and permit the termination date

of the facility lo be extended by an additional year twice d11ring the terlll or the Amended Agreement. The remaining

material terms and conditions of the Amended Agreement are substantially similar to the material terms and conditions of our Five-Year Credit Agreement dated October 5, 2011.

fhe Amended Agreement allows for borrowing 1n various currencies and up to $150.0 million may be used for the issuance

of stand-by letters of credit. We had no borrowings under this facility as of December 31, 2013 or 2012. Outstanding letters

of credit issued under the Amended Agreement totaled S0.9 million as of both December 31. 2013 and 2012. Additional

borrowings of $599.1 million and $799.1 million were available to 11s under !he facility as or December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Under the Amended Agreement, a credit ratings-based pnc1ng grid determines the facility fee and the credit spread !hat we

add to !he applicable interbank borrowing rate on all borrowings. At our current credit rating. the annual facility fee 1s 22.5

bps paid on the entire $600.0 million facility and the credit spread 1s 127.5 bps on any borrowings. Any downgrades from

the credit rating agencies would unfavorably impact our facihty lees and resul! in additional costs ranging from approxrmately $0.2 million to $0.3 m1ll1on annually.

The Amended Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants pertaining to our management and operations.

including limitations on t11e amount of subsidiary debt that we may incur and hm1tat1ons on our ability to pledge assets. as

well as linancial covenants requiring, among other things, that we comply with a leverage ratio (net Debt-10-EBITDA) of not

greater than 3.5 to 1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.5 to 1. The Amended Agreement also contains

customary events of default. including, among others. payment defaults. material inaccuracy of representations and

warranties, covenant defaults. bankruptcy or involuntary proceedings. ce1 ta1n monetary and non-monetary judgments, change or control and customary ERISA defaults.

As defined 1n !he Amended Agreement. we had a net DebHo-EBITDA ratio of 0.28 to 1 (compared to the maximum

allowable ratio of 3.5 to 1) and a Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 3.29 to 1 (compared to !he minimum required ratio of 1.5

lo 1) as of December 31, 2013. Based on our current forecast. we expect to be in compliance with our financial covenants for the next 12 months.

OTHER

In addition to the previously mentioned facilities, we maintain separate bank credit lines with financial institutions to meet

working capital needs of our subsidiary operations. As of December 31, 2013, such uncommitted credit lines totaled

$376.9 million, of which $339.9 million was unused. Under the Amended Agreement. total subsidiary borrowings cannol

exceed $300.0 million in the first, second and fourth quarters, and $600.0 million in the thircJ quarter of each year. Due to

lhese limitations. additional borrowings of $263.0 m1ihon could have been made under these lines as of December 31, 2013.

In January 2013, Moody's Investors Servrces lowered our credit ou!look from positive to stable, while maintaining the Baa3

credit rating. Our credit rating from Standard and Poor 's 1s 888- with a stable outlook. The rating agencies use a proprietary

methodology in determining their ratings and outlook which includes. among other things, financial ratios based upon debt levels and earnings performance. Both of lhe current credit ratings are investment grade.

The preparation of our l1nanc1al statements 1n conformity with accounting principles generally accepted 1n the United States

requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. A discussion of the more significant

estimates follows. Management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure ot these estimates and assumptions with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

We have an allowance for doubtful accounts recorded as an estimate ot the accounts receivable balance that may not be

collected. This allowance 1s calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration tor h1stoncal wnte-off experience. the

current aging of receivables and a specific review for potential bad debts. Items that affect this balance mainly 1nch1de bad debt expense and write-offs of accounts receivable balances.

Bad debt expense, which increases our allowance tor doubtful accounts, 1s recorded as a selling and administrative

expense and was $24.1 million, $29.2 million and $25.9 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Factors that would

cause this provision to increase pnmanly relate to increased bankruptcies by our clients and other d1ff1culties collectino

amounts billed. On the other hand, an improved write-off experience and aging of receivables would result in a decrease to the provision.

Wrrte-offs. which decrease our allowance for doubtful accounts, are recorded as a reduction to our accounts receivable balance and were $26.4 million, $23.2 million and $25.0 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011. respectively.

EMPLOYMENT-RELATED ITEMS

The employment of contingent workers and permanent staff throughout the world results in the recognition of liabilities

related to defined benefit pension plans. self-insured workers' compensation. social program remittances and payroll tax

audit exposures that require us to make estimates and assumptions in rJeterr111ning the proper reserve levels. These

reserves involve significant estimates or 1udgments that are material to our financial statements.

Def rned Benefit Pension Plans

We sponsor several qualified and nonquahfied pension plans covering permanent employees. The most s1grnficanl plans

are located in the United Kingdom, the United States. Norway and other European countries. Annual expense relaling to

these plans 1s recorded as selling and adm1nrstrative expense and 1s estimated to be approximately $12.6 million 1n 2014.

compared to $11 .8 million, $12.6 milhon and S9.7 million In 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Included in the 2013 expense

was a $2.3 m1llron cur1ailment gain resulting from an amendment to a defined benefit plan rn the Netherlands. Effective

January I , 2013, the Netherlands defined benefit plan was trozen. and the partic ipants were trans1t1oned to a defined contribution plan.

The calculalrons of annual pension expense and the pension liability required at year-end include various actuar,al

assumplions such as discount rates, expected rate ot return on p tan assets. compensation increases and employee

turnover rates. We review the actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and make mod1frcat1ons to the assumptions as

necessary. We review market data ancl historical rates. on a country-by-country basis, to check tor reasonableness ,n

setting both the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets. We determine the discount rate based on an index

of high-quality corporate bond yields and matched-funding yield curve analysis as of the end of each fiscal year. The

expected return on plan assets 1s determined based on the expected returns of the various rnvestment asset classes held

111 the plans. We estimate compensation increases and employee turnover rates for each plan based on the historical rates

and the expected future rates for each respective country. Changes to any of these assumptions will impact the level of annual expense recorded related to the plans.

We used a weighled-average discount rate ol 4.6% for the United States plans and 4.1% for non-United States plans in

determ1nrng the estimated pensron expense for 2014. These rates compare to the weighted-average discount rate of 3.7%

for the Unrted Slates plans and 4.2% for non-Unrted States plans 1n determining the estimated pension expense for 2013,

and reflect the current ,nterest rate envrronmenl. Absent any other changes. a 25 basis point increase and decrease in the

weighted-average discount rate would impact 2014 consolidated pension expense by approximately $0.1 million and $0.8

million for the United States plans and non-Un,ted States plans, respectively. We have selected a we,ghted-average

expected return on plan assets of 6.0% for the United States plans and 4.5% for the non-United States plans rn determining

lhe est,mated pension expense for 2014. The comparable rates used for the calculation of the 2013 pension expense were

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

6.0% and 4.0% for the United States plans and non-United Stales plans, respectively. A 25 basis po1nl change 1n the weighted-average expected return on plan assets would impact 2014 consolidated pension expense by approximately $0.1 million for the United States plans and $0.8 million for the non-United States plans. Changes to these assumptions have historically not been significant in any jurisdiction for any reporting period, and no significant adjustments to the amounts recorded have been required 1n the past or are expected 1n the future. (See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements tor further information.)

United States Workers Compensation

In the United States, we are under a self-insured retention program 1n most states covering workers' compensation claims for our contingent workers. We determine the proper reserve balance using an actuarial valuation, which considers our historical payment experience and current employee demographics. Our reserve for such claims as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $75.3 million and £74.8 m1lhon. respectively. Workers' compensation expense is recorded as a component of cosl of services.

fhere are two main factors that impact workers' compensation expense: the number of claims and the cost per cla11n. The number of claims is driven by the volume of hours worked, the business mix which reflects the type of work performed (for example, office and professional work have fewer claims than 1ndustnal work), and the safety of the environment where the work 1s performed. The cost per claim is driven primarily by 11,e seventy of the in1ury, related medical costs and lost-time wage costs. A 10% change in the number of claims or cost per claim would 11npacl workers' compensation expense in the United States by approximately £3.0 rn1ll1on.

Historically, we have not had significant changes 1n our assumptions used in calculating our reserve balance or significant adjustments to our reserve level. We continue our focus on safety, which includes training of contingent workers and client site reviews. Given our current claims experience and cost per claim, we do not expect a significant change 1n our workers' compensation reserve 1n the near future.

Social Program Remittances and Payroll Tax Audit Exposure

On a routine basis, various governmental agencies in some ol lhe countries and territories in which we operate audil our payroll tax calculations and our compliance with other payroll-related regulations. These audits focus primarily on ciocumentation requirements and our support for our payroll tax remittances. Due to the nature of our business. the nurnber of people that we employ, and the complexity of some payroll tax regulations, we may have some adjustments to the payroll tax remittances as a result of these audits.

We make an estimate of lhe additional remittances that may be required on a country-by-country basis, and record the estimate as a component of cost of services or selling and adm1111strat1ve expenses, as appropriate. Each country's estimate is based on the resulls of past audits and the number of years that have not yet been audited, with consideration for changing business volumes and changes to the payroll tax regulations. To the extent t11at our actual experience differs from our estimates, we will need to make adjustments to our reserve balance, which will impact the results of the related operation and the operating segment in which 11 Is reported. Other than France, we have not had any significant adJustments to the amounts recorded as a result of any payroll tax audits. and we do not expect any significant adjustments to the recorded amounts 1n the near term.

In particular, Iha French government has various social programs that are aimed at reducing the cost of labor and encouraging employment, particularly for low-wage workers. through the reduction of payroll taxes (or social contribution). Due to the number of new programs or program changes, and the complexity of compliance, we may have adjustments to the amount of reductions claimed as a result of the audits.

In France, we currently maintain a reserve related to 11,ese programs for 2007 through 2013, which has been estimated based on the results of past audits, changes 1n business volumes and lhe assessments related to the audit of 2009 through 2011. While some adjustment may be appropriate as we finali,:o the audits, we do nol expect any significant adjustments to lhe recorded amount 1n the near term.

The French government passed leg1slat1on effective January 1. 2013 to improve the competitiveness and reduce employment costs by offering payroll tax credits to most French and foreign enterprises subject to corporate tax in France. This law, Credit d'lmpot pour l;i Competihvite et l'EmpJ01 ("CICE"), provides credits based on a percentage of wages paid to employees receiving less than two-and-a-half limes the French minimum wage. The payroll tax credit 1s equal 10 4% of

42 Manl,JUWl•,Grour, 2013 A1,,1,,r,I AcDOf1 Managem,nt s Discussion & AnJlysis

eligible wages 1n 2013 and increases to 6% of eligible wages starling in 2014. We intend to use the credit to invest in

employment opportunitros and to improve our competitiveness, as required by the law. We are uncertain what impact. if

any, this credit will have on overall market pricing or on client requests lor pnc1ng concessions, either of which could reduce

lhe net benefi t we receive from these credits. Due to the complexity of compliance with this law, we may have adjustments

to the payroll tax credit amount as a result of any audits. The CICE credrt 1s accounted for as a reduction of our cost of

services in the period earned. and has had a favorable unpact on our consolidated gross profit margin, as well as margins ,n France and Southern Europe

The payroll tax credit 1s creditable against our current income tax payable, with any rema1nrng amount being paid atter

three years Given the amount of our current income taxes payable. we would generally receive the vast majority of the

CICE credits after the three-year period. However. we entered into an agreement in December 2013 to sell a portion of the

credits earned in 2013 for net proceeds of $104.0 million. We derecognized these receivables upon sale date as the terms

of the agreemenl are such that the transaction qualifies for sale treatment according to the accounting guidance on the

transfer and servicing of assets. The discount on the sale of this receivable was recorded as a reduction of the payroll tax

credits 1n cost of services. We received the cash from the sale 1n December, which improved our operating cash flows 1n the fourth quarter of 2013.

In France. during the second quarter or 2013, a number of clients asserted claims against us. requesting refunds for various

payroll tax subsidies that we have received dating back to 2003 related to our Frencl, temporary associates. While

we receive claims 1n the normal course of business. there was a significant increase 1n claims made during the second

quarter due to an impending change 1n the French statute of limitations that reduced the claims period from 10 to 5 years

lo, claims filed after June 2013. We did not receive any c laims 1n the remainder of 2013. We believe the claims against

us are without merit as a matter of French law. Payroll tax subsidies have historically been for the benefit of the direct

employer of the temporary associates. As such, our pricing practices implicitly consider all direct costs of employing our

temporary associates, and factor in the benefit provided by these payroll tax subsidies. The French Supreme Court has

been asked to confirm that, as a matter of law, the benefit of the payroll tax subsidies belongs to the direct employer,

with a ruling expected during 2014. We believe the likelihood of any loss to be remote and do not expect the resolution of

these claims lo have a material impact on our consolidated f1nanc1al statements or the results of our Franrn and Southern Europe segments.

DEFERRED REVENUE

We recognize revenues under the current accounting guidance on revenue recognition. The accounting guidance generally

provides that revenues tor limo-based services be recognized over the average length of the services being provided. For

the outplacement line of business. we recognize revenues from 1nd1vidual programs and for larger pro1ects over the

estimated period 1n which services are rendered to candidates. In our consulting business, revenues are recognized upon

the performance of the service under the consulting service contract. For performance-based contiacts. we defer recognizing revenues until the performance criteria have been met.

The amounts billed !or outplacement. consulting services and performance-based contracts 1n excess of the amount

recognized as revenues are recorded as deferred revenue and included 1n accrued liabilities for the current portion and other long-term liabilities for the long-term portion 1n our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Significant factors imp;icting deferred revenue are the type or programs and projecls sold and the volume of current billings

for new programs and projects. Over lime, an 1ncreasrng volume of new billings will generally result 1n higher amounts ol

deferred revenue, while decreasing levels of new billings will generally result in lower amounts or deferred revenue. As of

December 31, 2013 and 2012, the current portion of deferred revenue was S48.5 m1ll1on and $55.7 million, respectively, and

the long-term portion of deferred revenue was $10.0 million and $17.1 million, respectively.

INCOME TAXES

We account for income taxes 1n accordance with the accounting gwdance on income taxes. Deferred tax assets and

l1ab11ities are recognized for the future tax consequences atlnbutable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and hab11ilies and their respective tax basis, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enactecl tax rates expected to apply to taxable ,ncome in the years

,n which those temporary difierences are expected to be recovered or settled. We record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets for which 11tilization of the asset is nol likHly.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The accounting guidance related to uncertain tax positions requires an evaluation process for all tax positions taken that Involves a review of probability tor sustaining a tax position. If the probability for sustaining a tax position is more likely than not, which is a 50% threshold, then the tax position is warranted and the largest amount that would be realized upon ultimate settlement is recognized. An uncertain tax position, one wl,icl, does not meet the 50% threshold, will not be recognized in the financial statements.

Our Judgment is required in determining our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances recorded. Our net deferred tax assets may need to be adjusted in the event I hat tax rates are modified, or our estimates of future taxable income change, such lhat deferred tax assels or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled al a different tax rate than currently estimated. In addition, valuation allowances may need lo be adJusted 1n the event that our estimate of future taxable income changes from the amounts currently estimated. We have unrecognized tax benefits related to it ms in various countries and lerritories. To the extent these items are settled tor an amount different than we currently expect, the unrecognized tax benefit will be adjusted.

We provide for income taxes on a quarterly basis based on an estimated annual tax rate. In determining this rate, we make estimates about taxable income for each of our largest loca11ons worldwide, as well as the tax rale lhat will be in effect for each location. To the extent these estimates change during the year, or actual results differ from these estimates, our estimated annual tax rate may change between quarterly periods and may differ from the actual effective tax rate 101' the year.

GOODWILL AND INOEFtNITE-LIVED INTANGIBLE ASSET IMPAIRMENT

In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets at our unit of account level during the third quarter, 01 more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value.

We performed our annual impairment test of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the third quarter ol 2013 and 2012, and there was no impairment of our goodwill or our 1ndefinite-hved intangible assets.

S1gnif1canl assumptions used 1n our annual goodwill impairment tesl during lhe third quarter of 2013 included: expected future revenue growth rates, operating unit profit margins, working capital levels, discount rates ranging from 11. 7% to 16.5%, and a terminal value multiple. The expected future revenue growth rates and operating unit profit margins were determined after taking into consideration our historical revenue growth rates and operating unit profit margins, our assessment of future market potential, and our expectations of future business performance. including the effects of the simplification and cost recalibration plan.

Tl1e table below provides a sample or our reporting units' estin 1ated fair values and carrying values, which were determined as part of our annual goodwill impairment test performed in the third quarter ended September 30, 2013. The reporting units included below represented approximately 70% of our consolidaled goodwill balance as of September 30, 2013.

Exchange Rates - Our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to our foreign subsidiaries and our euro-denominated borrowmgs. For our foreign subsidiaries. exchange rates 11npact the Urnted Stales dollar value of our reponed earnings, our investmenls in the subsidiaries and the intercornpany lransaclions wilh the subsidiaries.

44 Manpov,erGfoup 201~ Annual Repor1 Management·s Discussion & Analysis

Approximately 85% of our revenues and profits are generated outside of the United States, with approximately 45% generated from our European operations with a euro-functional currency. As a result, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies against the United States dollar, particularly the euro, may have a significant impact on our reported results. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollars at the monthly weighted-average exchange rates for the year. Consequently, as the value of the United States dollar changes relative to the currencies of our major markets, our reported results vary.

Throughout 2013, the United States dollar was volatile against many of the currencies of our major markets; however, the fluctuations resulted in no impact to our consolidated revenues from S$rvices. In 2012, revenues from services in constant currency were approximately 5.0% higher than reported. In both 2013 and 2012, a change In the strength of the United States dollar by 10% would have impacted our revenues from services by approximately 8.5% from the amounts reported.

Fluctuations In currency exchange rates also Impact the United States dollar amount of our shareholders' equity. The assets and liabilities of our non-United States subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars at the exchange rates in effect at year-end. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in shareholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The United States dollar weakened.relative to many foreign currencies as of December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012. Consequently, shareholders' equity increased by $43.0 million as a result of the foreign currency translation as of December 31, 2013. If the United States dollar had weakened an additional 10% as ofDecember 31, 2013, resulting translation adjustments recorded in shareholders' equity would have increased by approximately $85.5 million from the amounts reported.

As of December 31, 2012, the United States dollar had weakened relative to many foreign currencies compared to December 31, 2011. Consequently, shareholders' equity increased by $8.0 million as a result of the foreign currency translation as of December 31, 2012. If the United States dollar had weakened an additional 10% as of December 31, 2012, resulting translation adjustments recorded In shareholders' equity would have increased by approximately $47.0 million from the amounts reported.

Although currency fluctuations· impact our reported results and shareholders' equity, such fluctuations generally do not affect our cash flow or result in actual economiq gains or losses. Substantially an of our subsidiaries derive revenues and incur expenses within a single country and, consequently, do not generally incur currency risks in connection with the conduct of their normal business operations. We generally have few cross-border transfers of funds, except for transfers to the United States for payment of Ucense fees and interest expense on intercompany loans, working capital loans made between the United States and our foreign subsidiaries, dividends from our foreign subsidiaries, and payments between certain. countries and territories for services provided. To reduce the currency risk related to these transactions, we may borrow funds in the relevant foreign currency under our revolving credit agreement or we may enter into a forward contract to hedge the transfer.

As of December 31, 2013, there were £7.8 ($12.5) million of forward contracts that relate to cash flows owed to our foreign subsidiaries in 2014. ·Our forward contracts are not designated as hedQes. Consequently, any gain or loss resulting from the change in fair value is recognized in the current period earnings as Is the currency gain or loss on the amounts owed.

As of December 31, 2013, we had outstanding $480.9 million in principal amount of euro-denominated notes (€350.0 million). The note has been designated as a hedge of our net investment in subsidiaries with a euro-functional currency. Since our net investment in these subsidiaries exceeds the respective amount of the designated borrowing, translation gains or losses related to the borrowing Is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Shareholders' equity decreased by $9.5 million, net of tax, due to changes in accumulated other comprehensive income during the year due to the currency impact on these designated borrowings.

IMPACT OF ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

One of 1he pnnc1pal attractions of using workforce solutions and service providers 1s to maintain a flexible supply of labor to meet changing economic conditions. Therefore, the industry has been and remains sensitive to economic cycles. To help minimize the effects of these economic cycles, we offer clients a continuum of services to meet their needs throughout the business cycle. We believe that the breadth of our operations and the diversity of our service mix cushion us against the impact ot an adverse economic cycle in any single country or industry. However, adverse economic conditions 111 any of our largest markets, or 1n several markets simultaneously. would have a material impacl on our consolidated financial results.

LEGAL REGULATIONS

fhe workforce solution:;. and services industry is closely regulaterl 1n all ol lt1e ma1or markets in which we operate except the United States and Canada. Many countries and territories impose licensing or regislration requiremenls and substanl1ve restrictions on employment services, either on the provider of recruitmenl services or the ultimate client company. or minimum benefits to be paid to the temporary employee either during or following the temporary assignment. Regulations also may restrict the lengtl, of assignments, the type of work permitted or the occasions on which contingent workers may be used. Changes 1n applicable laws or regulations have occurred in the past and are expected in the future to affect the extent lo which workforce solutions and services firms may operate. These changes could impose additional costs, taxes, record keeping or reporting requirements: restrict the tasks to which contingent workers may be assigned: limit the duration of or otherwise impose restrictions on the nature of the relationship (with us or the client): or otherwise adversely affect the industry. All of our other service lines are currently not regulated.

In many markets. the existence or absence of collective bargaining agreenients with labor organizations has a significant impact on our operations and the ability of clients to utilize our services. In some markets, labor agreements are structured on a national 01 industry-wide (rather than a company-by-company) basis. Changes In tl,ese collective barga1n1ng agreements have occurred 1n the past, are expected to occur in the future, and may have a material impact on tho operations ot workforce solutions and services lirms. 1ncluct1ng us.

In Germany, the Confederation of German Trade Unions (representing eight German trade unions and over six million people) and the Employer's Association of the Temporary Staffing Industry (represenl ing two major temporary worker employers' associations) entered into a new Collective Labor Agreement effective November 2013. The agreement required l11gher wages to temporary employees and higher cost for vacation, sick pay and temporary staff time accounts, and took effect between November 2013 and January 2014. This agreement is similar to nine other Collective Labor Agreements Which became effective between November 2012 anti July 2013. These changes will all have an unfavorable impact on our gross profit margin 1n Germany, as we pass on many of these add1t1onal costs to the client without a mark-up. However, we currently do not expect a significant impact on our consolidated or Northern Europe tinancial results.

The Agency Workers Directive ("AWD"} impacts all EU member states and was passed to ensure ·equal treatment'' for agency (temporary) workers. It also requires all member states to review and address unnecessary prohibitions and restrictions on the use of agency workers. Equal treatment had been ,n place by law In many countries: therefore, we have not seen any significant changes. We have seen a decline 1n gross profit margin 1n some countries. as any cost increases could not always be passed on with a normal mark-up, but no other significant impact on our business lrom these changes.

In June 2013, the employer mandate provisions of the new U.S. healthcare legislation, Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). were delayed until 2015 from t11e original effective date of 2014. The employer mandate provisions of PPACA are expected to have the greatest financial impact on us and our clients with U.S.-based employees. We expect this legislahon will increase !he employment costs of our permanent employees and our associates, but we continue to assess the potential impact. Our intention is to pass on to our U.S. clients any cost Increases related to our associates, however there 1s no assurance that we writ be fully successful.

Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, which is included herein. Based on our evaluation we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

of December 31, 2013, based on cntena established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by t11e

Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for

ma1nta1ning effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control

over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Our responsibility is to express an op1n1on on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 1n accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether

effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained 1n all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an

understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and

evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. and performing such other

procedures as we considered necessary 1n the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting ,s a process designed by, or under the supervision or. the company's

pnnc1pal execulive and principal financial officers. or persons performing similar fLmct1ons. and effected by the company's

board of directors. management. and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial

expenditures of the company arc being made only 1n accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the

company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or limely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use. or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over rinancial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or

on a l!mely basis. Also. projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the inte, nal control over financial reporting to

Our commitment to service Virginia Tech as your primary vendor extends to every location needing

temporary services - including locations where mileage to Manpower's closest office may hinder our

ability to service efficiently. In coordination with Virginia Tech, we will identify and subcontract to suitable

vendors in those areas. As another alternative, ManpowerGroup frequently operates remote recru iting

and placement sites on a periodic basis for a customer beyond the traditional geographic reach of a

ManpowerGroup office. Also, please note that ManpowerGroup is constantly opening new offices. Any

Virginia Tech location with large temporary staffing needs can be considered for a new office.

The Roanoke Division will handle all staffing for Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va

c. Describe the typical turn-around time for confirming the availability of a temporary placement.

This answer is quite different when referring to the processes of ManpowerGroup for clerical or industrial

orders or the processes of Experis. We can usually respond with candidates for clerical or industrial orders within 1-3 days, shorter for basic skills and longer for particularly hard-to-find skills. Experis'

benchmark for submission of resumes is 48 hours after receipt of the job order, but for "hot" or hard-to­find skill sets it can take as long as 5 days. However, ManpowerGroup will commit to a response to your

request with a confirmation ca ll within 30 minutes.

Background C eeks Helping to make smart hiring decisions

Today more than ever, companies have made it a priority to ensure a safe and secure work environment. Verifying an associate's identification and credentials is an integral part in making smart hiring decisions that affect the workplace.

ManpowerGroup realizes this step in the screening process is essential and takes very seriously our responsibility to thoroughly examine an associate's background before the start of an assignment. ManpowerGroup conducts the following background checks as appropriate:

U.S. Employment Eligibility Verification Work History Verification

As the legal employer, we verify identity and U.S. employment eligibility for every associate

and complete all necessary documentation as required by federal law, including the Form 1-9.

ManpowerGroup checks an applicant's work references by contacting former employers by phone or fax. For legal reasons, ManpowerGroup obtains the applicant 's written

consent for the release of this information.

Supplemental Background Checks

In addition to the routine background checks noted earlier, ManpowerGroup is prepared to match the background checking requirements Virginia Tech uses to screen your permanent hires. ManpowerGroup has teamed with a national background screening firm Sterling and Assurant to meet virtually any

screening requirement Virginia Tech may have.

The cost of background checks are included in the mark up.

The following chart summarizes the most common supplemental background checks we can administer upon request:

Drug Screening

ManpowerGroup's standard drug screen is a six­panel , oral fluid test conducted in the

ManpowerGroup office. There is also a 10-panel oral fluid test available. ManpowerGroup can also test our associates with a five- or ten-panel urine test, as requested, to ensure that our associates meet your drug-free standards. The labs used for drug screenings are SAMHSA certified labs.

Review of Department of Motor Vehicle Records

ManpowerGroup can examine an applicant's driving history, by state, to determine the current status of

Review of Criminal Conviction History

At the county, state or federal level , we can check applicants for any convictions of both felony and

related misdemeanor convictions. This includes a verification of the applicant's social security number.

Educational Record Verification

This review verifies educational information, including academic degrees and dates of

that individual's driver's license. This review reveals any driving violations, convictions, or accidents for the period of time available from a state's repository

of motor vehicle records. Some out of pocket access

fees may apply.

Employment History

The routine check is a formal, documented, in~depth

analysis of our associates' work history. This review includes interviews with former employers to validate information such as:

• Dates of employment • Salary

• Position • Reason for leaving

• Duties • Eligibility for rehire

attendance at a particular educational institution. ManpowerGroup also can verify the status of any claimed credential or professional license.

National Credit File Check

Through the largest credit bureau in the country,

we access a full credit report. This includes information such as payment histories, bankruptcy proceedings, collection accounts, and civil

litigation records.

If there are any background checks or reviews that we have not included in this summary that Virginia Tech performs as part of its standard screening process, we are confident that we hold the resources to match your

requirements.

THESE BACKGROUNDS ARE PERFORMED AT NO CHARGE TO VIRGINIA TECH

Workplace Injuries

At ManpowerGroup, we are keen ly focused n the performance and wellbeing of the asso iates we place with our clients. Thars why we 've implemented an w program Lo assist associates in the event a workplace injury occurs. Manpower roup has partnered with Coventry (Priori ty Care 365 or P 365). an independent organizati n, to provide immediate medical evaluation by phone, 24 hours a day/7 day a week. PC365 is staffed by qualified. licensed reg,i tered nurse. who are ready to a ist any Manpower roup a sociate who is injured on the job. P 365 staff ass i tance is al o ava ilable in many different languages.

If an a sociate receives a Ii fe or I imb Lhr atening injury, call 9 1 I. For a ll other injuries, tarting today, please follow the three step process below.

I. When as as ociale is injured, we ask that the supervi or call 855-690-7299 to speak with a nur e. However, if th is is not an option. please direct the as ocia1e Lo a privat area to call P 3 65 direct! .

2. The ass ciate will answer que tions posed by a register d nurse from P 36 . Following the cal l. P 365 wi ll notil'y a line supervisor or other contact with the re ults of the call. The nurse will s nd a report a well.

o Depending on the situation. the a sociale may be guided in first aid or ·'self-care: · allowed back to work. be referred to a medical faci lity off-site for further evaluation or treatment.

o P 365 i not authorized to send as ociates home and the are not authorized to return the associate back tom difi ed duty.

3. If fir t aid alone is needed, we ask that you provide the associate acces to your fir t aid kit so he/she can return to work as quickly and safely as possible. Or, i r the associate i referred out for treatment. we a k that you notify y ur I cal contact at ManpowerGroup.

The registered nurses al PC365 offer expert insight, removing the burden from the on-si te supervisor. Utilizing PC365 also provides ManpowerGroup clients the additional benefits of:

o Potentially fewer OSHA recordables, if the injuries are minor. n Reduced impact on overall client productivity if the associate is able to se11:.rreat and remain at work

rather than leaving work to seek medical intervention. o Potentially less restricted duty and lost time day counts with the use of preferred medical clin ics, and

soft channe ling of associates to designated clinics in employee choice states.

ManpowerGroup is always looking for new ways to help our clients win in the changing world of work. We hope you wi ll fi nd !h is service value added. If you have any questions regarding th is program, please feel free to contact 434-832-0266 Ext 70330 for more information.
