Payroll outsourcing is also a key area for small and midsize businesses that are often underserved by larger, more-strategic forms of BPO.”HR BPO adoption is still in its early stage in most parts of Asia Pacific, and Gartner expects healthy growth rates to continue through to 2010. India’s domestic HR BPO witnessed the highest growth rate, an increase of 23 percent from USD 97 million in 2005 to USD 119 million in 2006.
