' "Ad astra per aspera" - "to the stars through perseverance" - is the motto of The Astra Group perseverance The perserverance has paid off in an 834% growth in revenues since 1999 for The Astra Group, a firm that specializes in human resources outsourcing. President Shane Jones believes that his company has succeeded even in this uncertain era because businesses more than ever want to focus on selling their products rather than fussing with human resource issues. He is confident too that they will retain that focus once the economy springs back.'

BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING

Outsourcing is a smart business practice.  Using a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) to handle your human resource issues and paperwork can free up countless hours that you can use to focus on your core business and productivity concerns.  The Astra Group is a comprehensive human resource outsourcing company that is dedicated to helping your business succeed.

Peter Drucker on PEOs



In the February 2002 issue of the Harvard Business Review, Peter Drucker said, "...PEOs free up managers to focus on the business rather than on employment related rules, regulations and paperwork. To spend up to one quarter of one's time on employment related paperwork is indeed a waste of precious, expensive, scarce resources. Companies thus have ample reason to try to do away with the routine chores of employee relations - whether by systematizing employee management in-house or by outsourcing to temps or to a PEO."
