Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of TrueBlue, Inc. (the “Company”) filed on May 15, 2017 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 11, 2017 (the “2017 Annual Meeting”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future shareholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (“say-on-pay”). No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.

	
		
Item 5.07	Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.	

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote regarding the frequency of future say-on-pay votes held at the 2017 Annual Meeting, a majority of shareholders voted in favor of holding future advisory say-on-pay votes annually (the “Frequency Vote”).

After consideration of the results of the Frequency Vote, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that the Company will continue to hold an advisory say-on-pay vote annually. The Company’s Board of Directors will re-evaluate this determination after the next shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes.
