Changing Your Home Phone Number

   Overview   

If your phone number changes, you can easily update it in Employee Self Service in OneUSG Connect. You can also add and delete additional phone numbers if needed. Please note that you will not be able to change the Business number listed, which is maintained by HR.

When updating a personal contact number, it must be in a specific format.

Example: 7065551212 and 706- 555-1212 will both save as 706/555-1212 (prescribed format).

All other formats will receive an error.

Phone numbers will not save with less than or more than 10 digits.

Phone numbers will not save with values other than numeric.
