Item 2.02    Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On January 25, 2007, Robert Half International Inc. issued a press release reporting earnings for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2006. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The foregoing information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall not be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such future filing.

Item 8.01    Other Events.

On August 9, 2005, Plaintiff Lizette Greene, on behalf of herself and a putative class of salaried “inside sales persons,” filed a complaint in United States District Court for the Northern District of California naming the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries as Defendants. On December 22, 2006, the Plaintiff filed a motion for conditional certification of their federal claims in which they seek to represent a class of salaried employees who worked for the Company and certain of its subsidiaries in California within three years before the complaint was filed and seeking permission to mail class members a notice regarding their right to opt into the case as plaintiffs. At this stage of the litigation, it is not feasible to predict the outcome of or a range of loss, should a loss occur, from this proceeding, and accordingly, no amounts have been provided in the Company’s previously filed financial statements. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations, and the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against the litigation. Reference is made to Note G to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of the Company contained in Part I, Item 1 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 for a complete description of this case.
