People Infrastructure Ltd (ASX: PPE)

The first ASX dividend share to consider is People Infrastructure.

People Infrastructure, better known to its customers as PeopleIN, is a technology enabled workforce management company delivering innovative solutions to the workforce challenges facing businesses.

It provides contracted staffing and human resources outsourcing services to a range of key industries. These services include recruiting, on-boarding, rostering, timesheet management, payroll, and workplace health and safety management.

It has been on form in FY 2021 despite the pandemic. For the six months ended 31 December, the company recorded a 3.1% increase in revenue to $201 million and a 51.5% increase in normalised net profit to $14.8 million.

One broker that is a fan of the company is Morgans. It currently has an add rating and $4.22 price target on its shares. The broker is also forecasting a fully franked dividend of 13 cents per share in FY 2021. Based on the latest People Infrastructure share price, this represents an attractive 3.5% dividend yield.

Rural Funds Group (ASX: RFF)

Another ASX dividend share to look at is Rural Funds. It is an agriculture-focused property company with a collection of high quality assets leased to experienced operators.

Positively, these properties are leased on long term agreements and include fixed rental increases. This means that the company is well-placed to deliver on its target of growing its distribution by 4% per annum long into the future.

This year Rural Funds is planning to pay a distribution of 11.28 cents per share. After which, in FY 2022 it intends to increase it by 4% to 11.73 cents per share. Based on the current Rural Funds share price, this represents yields of 4.8% and 5%, respectively.
