SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw from Listing 
and Registration; (The Olsten Corporation, Common Stock, $.10 Par 
Value, 4\7/8\% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2003, Warrants 
to Purchases Class B Common Stock) File No. 1-8279

January 24, 1995.
    The Olsten Corporation (``Company'') has filed an application with 
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 
12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified 
securities (``Securities'') from listing and registration on the 
American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing these 
Securities from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
the Securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. 
(``NYSE''). The Securities commenced trading on the NYSE at the opening 
of business on December 15, 1994 and concurrently therewith the 
Securities were suspended from trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw these Securities from listing on 
the Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and 
expenses attendant in maintaining the dual listing of the Securities on 
the NYSE and the Amex. The Company does not see any particular 
advantage in the dual trading of the Securities and believes that dual 
listing would fragment the market for the Securities.
    Any interested person may, on or before February 14, 1995, submit 
by letter to the Secretary of the Securities [[Page 5751]] and Exchange 
Commission, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts 
bearing upon whether the application has been made in accordance with 
the rules of the Amex and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the 
commission for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on 
the information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
