Item 5.03.              Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On December 13, 2006, the Board of Directors of Labor Ready, Inc. (the “Company”), approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year from one ending on the Friday closest to December 31 to the last Friday in December.  The purpose for the change is to improve comparability of fiscal years.  As a result of this change, New Year’s Day (the “Holiday”) will occur only once in each fiscal year, whereas under the prior policy the Holiday periodically fell twice in the same fiscal year.  Under the Company’s new fiscal year policy, the Company will have a 53-week fiscal year in 2010 compared to the prior policy that produced a 53-week fiscal year in 2008.  The year end for fiscal year 2006, which is December 29, 2006, is identical under the new and prior fiscal year policies.  Accordingly, since there is no change to the end of the Company’s fiscal year for 2006, there will be no transition period and no transition report is required.
