SINGAPORE: San Francisco-based global human resource firm Deel plans to open its Asia-Pacific base here and hire more than 400 local workers in the next four years.

The rise of offsite work, overseas expansion by Singapore companies and a global grab for talent here prompted the firm to start planning with the Economic Development Board to expand its presence locally.
