                    GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC.
                      CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER BONUS PLAN
                               AMENDMENT 1

The Chief Executive Officer Bonus Plan, adopted by the Company's Board of
Directors on September 24, 2001, is amended for fiscal years beginning on or
after October 1, 2006, as follows:

The following paragraph is removed:

For purposes of these calculations, the pre-bonus income of the Company means
the consolidated, fiscal year income before deduction of income taxes and
before deduction of the CEO bonus itself.  Improvement means the amount of
increase in pre-bonus income for the bonus year compared with the immediately
preceding year.  In calculating the bonus rates, pre-bonus losses and negative
improvement amounts shall be treated as "zero."

The following is added in its place:

For purposes of these calculations, consolidated pre-bonus income means the
consolidated, fiscal year income of the Company before deduction of income
taxes and before deduction of the CEO bonus itself, less 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 at the beginning of the bonus year.  If the consolidated pre-bonus
income for the bonus year is less than zero, it 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 consolidated pre-bonus income for the bonus
year compared with the consolidated pre-bonus income for the immediately
preceding bonus year.  If the consolidated pre-bonus income for either bonus
year is less than zero, consolidated pre-bonus income shall be treated as
"zero" for that bonus year.  A decrease in consolidated pre-bonus income
shall be treated as "zero improvement" for that bonus year.

For purposes of calculating the income improvement bonus rate for the first
year that this Amendment 1 is effective, the consolidated pre-bonus income
for the preceding year shall be calculated on a pro forma basis using the
first year's threshold amount.

The Company intends that the payment will be made within 2 1/2 months of the
close of the Company's fiscal year, but in no event later than the
subsequent calendar year.  In the event that payments are not made within
2 1/2 months of the close of the Company's fiscal year, it is the Company's
intent that this Plan be construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Company's Chief Financial Officer shall perform the annual bonus
calculations under this plan.  The Chairman of the Committee shall advise the
Chief Executive Officer 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 the Chief Executive Officer
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.
