Searching for Employee ID

   Overview   

As University System of Georgia (USG) employees, all UGA employees have a USG Employee ID, often labeled in the PeopleSoft systems as Empl_ID. This number is in addition to the UGA 81X number. Most often it begins with 180 but if employees have worked for other USG institutions, or was assigned after July 1, 2018, their number may begin with a different prefix. Employees and/or their home departments may need to know or recognize this Empl_ID for use on various forms or in query results. In the UGA Financial Management System, this number can be found in various places, including Expense Reports.

You may find yourself in the situation where you need to find your USG Employee ID or the USG Employee for another employee. You can access the UGA_USERS_EMPLID query via the Query Viewer to complete this task.
