Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
Revenue | 2. Revenue Revenue Disaggregated by Service Type In 2025, Kelly has three operating segments: Enterprise Talent Management (“ETM”), Science, Engineering & Technology (“SET”), and Education. The ETM segment combines two former reportable segments, Professional & Industrial (“P&I”) and Outsourcing & Consulting Group (“OCG”), along with the transfer of certain customers from the SET segment to better align delivery models and improve go-to-market strategies (see Segment Disclosures footnote). In the first quarter of 2025, the Company also integrated the Sevenstep business—acquired as part of the Motion Recruitment Partners, LLC (“MRP”) acquisition and which had previously been included in the SET segment—into the ETM segment as part of the broader MRP integration strategy. The Company's segments deliver talent through staffing services, permanent placement or outcome-based services. The Company's ETM segment also delivers talent solutions including managed service provider (“MSP”), payroll process outsourcing (“PPO”), and recruitment process outsourcing (“RPO”). The 2024 ETM and SET segment information has been recast to conform to the new structure. The following tables present the Company's segment revenues disaggregated by service type (in millions of dollars):
