PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Robert Half International Inc. is the world's largest specialized provider
of temporary and permanent personnel in the fields of accounting and finance.
Its divisions include ACCOUNTEMPS-Registered Trademark- and ROBERT
HALF-Registered Trademark-, providers of temporary and permanent personnel,
respectively, in the fields of accounting and finance. The Company, utilizing
its experience as a specialized provider of temporary and permanent personnel,
has expanded into additional specialty fields. In 1991, the Company formed
OFFICETEAM-Registered Trademark- to provide skilled temporary administrative and
office personnel. In 1994, the Company established RHI
CONSULTING-Registered Trademark- to concentrate on providing temporary and
contract information technology professionals in positions ranging from PC
support technician to chief information officer. In 1992, the Company acquired
THE AFFILIATES-Registered Trademark-, which focuses on placing temporary and
permanent employees in paralegal, legal administrative and other legal support
positions.

The Company's business was originally founded in 1948. Prior to 1986, the
Company was primarily a franchisor of ACCOUNTEMPS and ROBERT HALF offices.
Beginning in 1986, the Company and its current management embarked on a strategy
of acquiring franchised locations and other local or regional independent
providers of specialized temporary service personnel. The Company has acquired
all but five of the ACCOUNTEMPS and ROBERT HALF franchises in 45 separate
transactions, and has acquired 16 other local or regional providers of
specialized temporary service personnel. Since 1986, the Company has
significantly expanded operations at many of the acquired locations and has
opened many new locations. The Company believes that direct ownership of offices
allows it to better monitor and protect the image of the ACCOUNTEMPS and ROBERT
HALF names, promotes a more consistent and higher level of quality and service
throughout its network of offices and improves profitability by centralizing
many of its administrative functions. The Company currently has more than 185
offices in 36 states and five foreign countries and placed approximately 101,000
employees on temporary assignment with clients in 1995.

ACCOUNTEMPS

The ACCOUNTEMPS temporary services division offers customers a reliable and
economical means of dealing with uneven or peak work loads for accounting, tax
and finance personnel caused by such predictable events as vacations, taking
inventories, tax work, month-end activities and special projects and such
unpredictable events as illness and emergencies. Businesses increasingly view
the use of temporary employees as a means of controlling personnel costs and
converting such costs from fixed to variable. The cost and inconvenience to
clients of hiring and firing permanent employees are eliminated by the use of
ACCOUNTEMPS temporaries. The temporary workers are employees of ACCOUNTEMPS and
are paid by ACCOUNTEMPS only when working on customer assignments. The customer
pays a fixed rate only for hours worked.

ACCOUNTEMPS clients may fill their permanent employment needs by using an
ACCOUNTEMPS employee on a trial basis and, if so desired, "converting" the
temporary position to a permanent position. The client typically pays a one-time
fee for such conversions.

OFFICETEAM

The Company's OFFICETEAM division, which commenced operations in 1991,
places temporary and permanent office and administrative personnel, ranging from
word processors to office managers, from over 135 locations in the United States
and Canada. OFFICETEAM operates in much the same fashion as the ACCOUNTEMPS and
ROBERT HALF divisions.

ROBERT HALF

The Company offers permanent placement services through its office network
under the name ROBERT HALF. The Company's ROBERT HALF division specializes in
placing accounting, financial, tax and banking personnel. Fees for successful
permanent placements are paid only by the employer and are generally a
percentage of the new employee's annual compensation. No fee for permanent
placement services is charged to employment candidates.

1

RHI CONSULTING

The Company's RHI CONSULTING division, which commenced operations in 1994,
specializes in providing information technology contract consultants in areas
ranging from multiple platform systems integration to end-user support,
including specialists in programming, networking, systems integration, database
design and help desk support. RHI Consulting conducts its activities from 38
locations in the United States, Canada and Europe.

THE AFFILIATES

In 1992, the Company acquired THE AFFILIATES, a small operation involving
only a limited number of offices, which places temporary and permanent employees
in paralegal, legal administrative and legal secretarial positions. The legal
profession's requirements (the need for confidentiality, accuracy and
reliability, a strong drive toward cost-effectiveness, and frequent peak
workload periods) are similar to the demands of the clients of the ACCOUNTEMPS
division.

MARKETING AND RECRUITING

The Company markets its services to clients as well as employment
candidates. Local marketing and recruiting are generally conducted by each
office or related group of offices. Advertising directed to clients and
employment candidates consists primarily of yellow pages advertisements,
classified advertisements and radio. Direct marketing through mail and telephone
solicitation also constitutes a significant portion of the Company's total
advertising. National advertising conducted by the Company consists primarily of
print advertisements in national newspapers, magazines and certain trade
journals. Joint marketing arrangements have been entered into with Microsoft,
Lotus Development Corporation, WordPerfect Corporation, Peachtree Software,
Inc., and Computer Associates International, Inc. and typically provide for
cooperative advertising, joint mailings and similar promotional activities. The
Company also actively seeks endorsements and affiliations with professional
organizations in the business management, office administration and professional
secretarial fields. The Company also conducts public relations activities
designed to enhance public recognition of the Company and its services. Local
employees are encouraged to be active in civic organizations and industry trade
groups.

The Company owns many trademarks, service marks and tradenames, including
the ROBERT HALF-Registered Trademark-, ACCOUNTEMPS-Registered Trademark-,
OFFICETEAM-Registered Trademark-, THE AFFILIATES-Registered Trademark- and RHI
CONSULTING-Registered Trademark- marks, which are registered in the United
States and in a number of foreign countries.

ORGANIZATION

Management of the Company's operations is coordinated from its headquarters
in Menlo Park, California. The Company's headquarters provides support and
centralized services to its offices in the administrative, marketing,
accounting, training and legal areas, particularly as it relates to the
standardization of the operating procedures of its offices. The Company has more
than 185 offices in 36 states and five foreign countries. Office managers are
responsible for most activities of their offices, including sales, local
advertising and marketing and recruitment.

COMPETITION

The Company faces competition in its efforts to attract clients as well as
high-quality specialized employment candidates. The temporary and permanent
placement businesses are highly competitive, with a number of firms offering
services similar to those provided by the Company on a national, regional or
local basis. In many areas the local companies are the strongest competitors.
The most significant competitive factors in the temporary and permanent
placement businesses are price and the reliability of service, both of which are
often a function of the availability and quality of personnel. The Company
believes it derives a competitive advantage from its long experience with and
commitment to the specialized employment market, its national presence, and its
various marketing activities.

2

EMPLOYEES

The Company has approximately 2,100 full-time staff employees. The Company's
offices placed approximately 101,000 employees on temporary assignments with
clients during 1995. Temporary employees placed by the Company are the Company's
employees for all purposes while they are working on assignments. The Company
pays the related costs of employment, such as workers' compensation insurance,
state and federal unemployment taxes, social security and certain fringe
benefits. The Company provides voluntary health insurance coverage to interested
temporary employees.

OTHER INFORMATION

The Company's current business constitutes a single business segment. (See
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data for financial information
about the Company.)

The Company is not dependent upon a single customer or a limited number of
customers. The Company's operations are generally more active in the first and
fourth quarters of a calendar year. Order backlog is not a material aspect of
the Company's business and no material portion of the Company's business is
subject to government contracts. The Company does not have any material
expenditures for research and development. Compliance with federal, state or
local environmental protection laws has no material effect on the capital
expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.

Information about foreign operations is contained in Note N of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. The Company does not have export
sales.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company's headquarters is located in Menlo Park, California. Placement
activities are conducted through more than 185 offices located in the United
States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Belgium, France and the Netherlands. All of
the offices are leased.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings other
than routine litigation incidental to its business.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995

Temporary services revenues increased 42% during 1995 and 46% during 1994,
including the revenues generated from the Company's OfficeTeam and RHI
Consulting divisions, which were started in 1991 and 1994, respectively.
Permanent placement revenues increased 31% during the year ended December 31,
1995 and 47% during the year ended December 31, 1994. The revenue comparisons
reflect continued improvement in the demand for the Company's services.

Gross margin dollars increased 41% during the year ended December 31, 1995
compared to 47% for the year ended December 31, 1994. Gross margin amounts
equaled 39% of revenue in 1995, 1994 and 1993.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $171 million
during 1995 compared to $122 million in 1994 and $88 million in 1993. Selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 27% in 1995
and 1994 and 29% in 1993. The percentage decline from 1993 was attributable to
revenue growth coupled with the Company's continued cost containment.

Amortization of intangible assets increased from 1993 to 1995 due to the
acquisitions in each of those years of additional personnel services operations.

Interest income/expense for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994
decreased 130% and 61%, respectively, over the comparable prior periods due to
an increase in interest income from an increase in cash and cash equivalents and
a decrease in interest expense due to a reduction of outstanding indebtedness.

The provision for income taxes was 42% in 1995 and 1994 and 46% in 1993. The
decrease in 1994 is the result of a smaller percentage of non-deductible
intangible expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The change in the Company's liquidity during the past three years is the net
effect of funds generated by operations and the funds used for the personnel
services acquisitions, capital expenditures, principal payments on outstanding
notes payable, and the securities repurchase program.

In November 1994, the Company issued 633,555 shares of its common stock. The
net proceeds from the sale of shares were approximately $12.6 million. The
Company used the proceeds for repayment of the borrowings under the Company's
revolving credit agreement.

On December 10, 1993, substantially all of the Company's outstanding
convertible subordinated debentures were converted into common stock of the
Company. See Note F in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company's working capital requirements consist primarily of the
financing of accounts receivable. While there can be no assurances in this
regard, the Company expects that internally generated cash plus the bank
revolving line of credit will be sufficient to support the working capital needs
of the Company's offices, the Company's fixed payments and other long-term
obligations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS. Robert Half International Inc. (the "Company")
provides specialized staffing services through such divisions as
Accountemps-Registered Trademark-, Robert Half-Registered Trademark-,
OfficeTeam-Registered Trademark- and RHI Consulting-Registered Trademark-. The
Company, through its Accountemps and Robert Half divisions, is the world's
largest specialized provider of temporary and permanent personnel in the fields
of accounting and finance. OfficeTeam specializes in skilled temporary
administrative personnel and RHI Consulting provides contract information
technology professionals. Revenues are predominantly from temporary services.
The Company operates in the United States, Canada and Europe. The Company is a
Delaware corporation.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The Consolidated Financial Statements include
the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned.
All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated. Certain
reclassifications have been made to the 1994 and 1993 financial statements to
conform to the 1995 presentation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION. Temporary services revenues are recognized when the
services are rendered by the Company's temporary employees. Permanent placement
revenues are recognized when employment candidates accept offers of permanent
employment. Allowances are established to estimate losses due to placed
candidates not remaining in employment for the Company's guarantee period,
typically 90 days.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash
equivalents.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Intangible assets represent the cost of acquired
companies in excess of the fair market value of their net tangible assets at
acquisition date, and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period
of 40 years. The carrying value of intangible assets is periodically reviewed by
the Company and impairments are recognized when the expected future operating
cash flows derived from such intangible assets is less than their carrying
value. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no
material impairment of intangible assets exists at December 31, 1995.

INCOME TAXES. Deferred taxes are computed based on the difference between
the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the
enacted marginal tax rate.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The results of operations of the Company's
foreign subsidiaries are translated at the monthly average exchange rates
prevailing during the period. The financial position of the Company's foreign
subsidiaries are translated at the current exchange rates at the end of the
period, and the related translation adjustments are recorded as part of
Stockholders' Equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency
transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

USE OF ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.

NOTE B -- ACQUISITIONS
In July 1986, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Robert
Half Incorporated, the franchisor of the Accountemps and Robert Half operations.
Subsequently, in 61 separate transactions the Company acquired all of the
outstanding stock of certain corporations operating Accountemps and

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

NOTE B -- ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED)
Robert Half franchised offices in the United States, the United Kingdom and
Canada as well as other personnel services businesses. The Company has paid
approximately $196 million in cash, stock, notes and other indebtedness in these
acquisitions, excluding transaction costs and cash acquired.

These acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, and the excess of cost
over the fair market value of the net tangible assets acquired is being
amortized over 40 years using the straight-line method. Results of operations of
the acquired companies are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income
from the dates of acquisition. The acquisitions made during 1995 and 1994 had no
material pro forma impact on the results of operations.

NOTE C -- NOTES PAYABLE AND OTHER INDEBTEDNESS
The Company issued promissory notes as well as other forms of indebtedness
in connection with certain acquisitions. These are due in varying installments,
carry varying interest rates and in aggregate amounted to $5,725,000 at December
31, 1995 and $4,214,000 at December 31, 1994. At December 31, 1995, $1,350,000
of the notes was secured by a standby letter of credit (see Note D). The
following table shows the schedule of maturities for notes payable and other
indebtedness at December 31, 1995 (in thousands):



1996....................................................................... $4,239

At December 31, 1995, all of the notes carried fixed rates of interest
ranging from 4.1% to 13.3%. The weighted average interest rate for the above was
approximately 7.3%, 8.2% and 11.1% for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively.

NOTE D -- BANK LOAN (REVOLVING CREDIT)
The bank loan is an unsecured credit facility which provides a line of
credit of up to $80,000,000, which is available to fund the Company's general
business and working capital needs, including acquisitions and the purchase of
the Company's common stock, and to cover the issuance of debt support standby
letters of credit up to $15,000,000.

As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company had no borrowings on the line
of credit outstanding and had used $3,408,000 and $3,358,000 in debt support
standby letters of credit, respectively. There is a commitment fee on the unused
portion of the entire credit facility of .25%. The loan is subject to certain
financial covenants which also affect the interest rates charged.

The credit facility has the following scheduled reduction in availability
(in thousands):



1996....................................................................... $ 5,000
1997....................................................................... $15,000
1998....................................................................... $15,000

NOTE F -- CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
On August 6, 1987, the Company issued $74,750,000 of 7.25% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures (the "Convertible Debentures"). Prior to 1993, all but
$22,745,000 of the Convertible Debentures were repurchased by the Company
pursuant to its repurchase program. The Convertible Debentures were unsecured
obligations of the Company with an original maturity date of August 1, 2012.
Interest was payable semi-annually as of February 1 and August 1 of each year to
the registered holders as of the preceding January 15 and July 15, respectively.
The Convertible Debentures were redeemable at the Company's option at any time
on or after August 1, 1990, at declining redemption prices.

In December 1993, the Company called for redemption all of its then
outstanding Convertible Debentures. Holders of $22,440,000 in principal amount
elected to convert their debentures into 2.04 million shares of common stock at
the conversion price of $11.00 per share. The remaining $305,000 in principal
amount of Convertible Debentures was redeemed at 102.9% of the principal amount
plus accrued interest.

NOTE G -- STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
On June 27, 1994, the stockholders of the Company voted to amend the
certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the
Company's common stock from 30,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares and the number of
authorized shares of the Company's preferred stock from 500,000 to 5,000,000.
The stockholders of the Company also authorized a reduction in par value from $1
per share to $.001 per share on both classes of shares.

In August 1994, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split in the form
of a stock dividend. 1994 and 1993 share and per share amounts have been
restated to retroactively reflect the two-for-one stock split.

In November 1994, the Company issued 633,555 shares of its common stock at a
price of $21.25 per share. The net proceeds from the sale of shares (after
deducting issuance costs of approximately $355,000 and a 4% underwriter's
discount) were approximately $12.6 million.

NOTE K -- PREFERRED SHARE PURCHASE RIGHTS
Pursuant to the Company's stockholder rights agreement, each share of common
stock carries one right to purchase one two-hundredth of a share of preferred
stock. The rights become exercisable in certain limited circumstances involving
a potential business combination transaction or an acquisition of shares of the
Company and are exercisable at a price of $32.50 per right, subject to
adjustment. Following certain other events after the rights become exercisable,
each right entitles its holder to purchase for $32.50 an amount of common stock
of the Company, or, in certain circumstances, securities of the acquiror, having
a then-current market value of twice the exercise price of the right. The rights
are redeemable and may be amended at the Company's option before they become
exercisable. Until a right is exercised, the holder of a right has no rights as
a stockholder of the Company. The rights expire on July 23, 2000.

NOTE L -- INCOME PER SHARE
Income per fully diluted share has been computed using the weighted average
number of shares of fully diluted common stock and common stock equivalents

the years ending December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively). An assumed
conversion of the Convertible Debentures was not dilutive to income per share in
1993 (see Note E).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

TO THE STOCKHOLDERS AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF ROBERT HALF INTERNATIONAL INC.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
position of Robert Half International Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Robert Half International
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
