            GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC.
            OPERATIONAL VICE PRESIDENT BONUS PLAN
 EFFECTIVE FOR FISCAL YEARS BEGINNING ON OR AFTER OCTOBER 1, 2004


Each regional vice president shall receive annually a bonus
amount equal to a percentage of his or her base salary in
effect during the bonus year.  The percentage to be used
shall be the sum of two bonus rates, determined as follows:

  1. Income bonus rate - The income bonus rate shall be 5%
     multiplied by the ratio of eligible pre-bonus income per
     $1,000,000 or fraction thereof.
  2. Income improvement bonus rate - The income improvement
     bonus rate shall be 20% multiplied by the ratio of the
     improvement in eligible pre-bonus income per $1,000,000 or
     fraction thereof.

The percentage for the two bonus rates combined shall not
exceed 100%.

For purposes of the bonus rate calculations, "eligible pre-
bonus income" means the combined income of the vice
president's region or regions for the Company's fiscal year,
before deduction of income taxes and before deduction of any
expense related to the vice president's bonus, which is in
excess of an annual threshold amount.  The Compensation and
Stock Option Committee of the Company's Board of Directors
(the "Committee") shall establish the annual threshold
amount for each regional vice president at the beginning of
the bonus year.  If the combined regional income for the
bonus year is less than the annual threshold amount,
eligible pre-bonus income shall be treated as "zero" for
that bonus year.

For purposes of calculating the income improvement bonus
rate, improvement means the amount of increase in eligible
pre-bonus income for the bonus year compared with the
eligible pre-bonus income for the immediately preceding
bonus year.  If the combined regional income for either
bonus year is less than the respective year's annual
threshold amount, eligible pre-bonus income shall be treated
as "zero" for that bonus year.  A decrease in eligible pre-
bonus income shall be treated as "zero improvement" for that
bonus year.

The Company's Chief Financial Officer shall perform the
annual bonus calculations under this plan.  The Company's
Chief Executive Officer shall advise each regional vice
president in writing of the terms of the plan, including the
annual threshold amount, at the beginning of the bonus year,
shall approve the annual bonus calculations, and shall
provide each regional vice president with a written
statement documenting the annual bonus calculations at the
end of the bonus year.  The Committee shall have the
authority to interpret the plan and to resolve disputes.

The Company shall pay the bonus to each regional vice
president annually, within 30 days following the completion
of the audit of the Company's consolidated financial
statements by its independent auditors.
