HRG North America plans to expand its workforce by more than one third, as it adds 600 travel counselors and customer care reps to its current 1,600-person roster by the end of 2007, officials said.

Expansion plans, to support organic growth and new client wins, also entail adding 40,000 square feet of space by mid-2007.

Also, within the next two years, HRG North American intends to more than double its home-based staff to around 20% of its workforce.

It will undertake that move to provide flexible hours to support global clients and as a hedge against service disruptions.
