ABOUT US

Our goals:

THE GUIA GROUP offers alternatives to an in-house human resource staff, and will provide executive level and peer support for your existing staff, so you can get the help you need, when you need it.

Employee related issues facing smaller organizations are just as complicated and demanding as they are in large organizations. The greatest difference is that smaller organizations have limited resources, specifically the TIME, MONEY and TRAINED STAFF to adequately address all of the legal and people-related issues they face.

We help you manage your workforce and position you in today’s competitive marketplace by aligning talent with productivity and business objectives.

With solutions you can use right away, The Guia Group can help you make the most of your human resources, reduce your costs, and improve your bottom line. You can be assured of:

– Cost effective, straightforward and repeatable results
– Customized solutions to your specific needs
– The best value and return on your HR investment
