The new Deel Field Services (DFS) platform is purpose-built for organizations operating in on-site, medium- to high-complexity operations like these, enabling Deel to address the $120 billion field services market, the company said in a Tuesday (June 16) press release emailed to PYMNTS.
The DFS platform is built for environments that require specialized pay structures; health, safety and environment compliance; rotational scheduling; and direct financial infrastructure, according to the release.
It provides the infrastructure and expertise needed for danger pay, hardship premiums, and direct statutory accountability in remote or unstable markets, the release said.
In addition, Deel is the legal employer of record and absorbs site-level liability and provides localized insurance coverage, per the release.
Deel launched DFS Tuesday for organizations with medium- to high-complexity on-site operations in African markets. The company expects to add general availability for oil and gas, mining, construction and heavy logistics by the third quarter, and additional markets through 2027, according to the release.
DFS is built on the infrastructure and expertise of Employ Africa Group (EAG), which Deel acquired in April 2025, the release said.
The platform joins the HR infrastructure Deel already offers for remote teams, contractors and office-based employees, per the release.
“By combining EAG’s on-the-ground expertise with Deel’s scale, we’re bringing compliance confidence, operational transparency and direct financial accountability to the most demanding workforce environments in the world,” Deel Co-Founder and CEO Alex Bouaziz said in the release.
When Deel secured $300 million in a Series E funding round last October, the company said it aims to expand the capabilities and the global reach of its human resources and payroll platform.
The company said at the time that it served more than 37,000 businesses and 1.5 million workers across 150 countries.
“We’re reimagining how payroll should work for the next century — fluid, real-time and truly borderless — and continuing our mission to become the single platform where companies can build, manage and pay their teams anywhere in the world,” Bouaziz said in an October press release.
