Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] |
rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock |
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate generally indicates higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s turnover rate was 42% of the average value of its portfolio.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example does not reflect the fees and expenses of any Permitted Account. If the fees and expenses of any Permitted Account were reflected, the fees and expenses in the Example would be higher.The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of each period. The Example also assumes that the Expense Limit is in place for the first year, that your investment has a 5% return each year, that all dividends and capital gains are reinvested, and that the Fund’s operating expenses are the amount shown in the fee table and remain the same for the years shown. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

|
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] |
rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock |
Below is a summary of the principal investment strategies of the Fund.The Fund will, under normal circumstances, invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks and related securities of foreign companies, including those in emerging markets. The Fund may have significant investments in a particular country, a small number of countries, or a particular geographic region. The companies in which the Fund invests may be of any size, including small- and medium-size companies. The issuer of a security or other investment is generally deemed to be economically tied to a particular country other than the U.S. if: (1) the security or other investment is issued or guaranteed by the government of that country or any of its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities; (2) the issuer is organized under the laws of that country; (3) the issuer maintains a principal office in that country; (4) the issuer has its principal securities trading market in that country; (5) the issuer derives 50% or more of its total revenues from goods sold or services performed in that country; (6) the issuer has 50% or more of its assets in that country; or (7) the issuer is included in an index which is representative of that country.The Fund emphasizes a “growth style” of investing, seeking companies whose potential to provide superior earnings growth appears to be greater than the market in general and whose revenue growth is expected to continue for an extended period of time. The Fund may also invest in depositary receipts and derivatives, including but not limited to currency forwards and futures. Empower Capital Management, LLC (“ECM”) is the Fund’s investment adviser and, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of Empower Funds (the “Board”), selects the Fund’s sub-advisers and monitors their performance on an ongoing basis. The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by two sub-advisers: J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. (“JPMorgan”) and Lazard Asset Management LLC (“Lazard”) (each, a “Sub-Adviser,” and collectively, the “Sub-Advisers”).•JPMorgan uses a bottom-up investment approach to buying and selling investments and generally focuses on investing in stocks of companies that it believes have above average growth potential and that are also trading at reasonable valuations. JPMorgan assesses financially material environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors alongside other relevant factors in its investment process with the goal of managing risk and improving long-term returns. ESG considerations are only one component in the evaluation of eligible investments and may not be a determinative factor in the final investment decision.•Lazard invests primarily in equity securities of what it considers to be quality growth businesses that can generate and sustain high levels of financial productivity and grow profits and cash flows by investing back into their businesses at similarly high rates of financial productivity. Lazard generally focuses on investing in securities of companies with a market capitalization of $3 billion or more. Lazard assesses the impact that financially material ESG considerations may have on the long-term financial performance (including growth and financial productivity) of an issuer as part of its security selection and portfolio construction processes. ESG considerations are only one component in the evaluation of eligible investments and may not be a determinative factor in the final investment decision.ECM maintains a strategic allocation of the Fund’s assets with each Sub-Adviser and reviews the asset allocations on a quarterly basis, or more frequently as deemed necessary. As of the date of this Prospectus, the target percentage is a 50% allocation of the Fund’s assets to JPMorgan and a 50% allocation of the Fund’s assets to Lazard. Actual allocations may vary from the target allocations and ECM may change the asset allocations at any time without shareholder notice or approval.

The bar chart and table below provide an indication of the risk of investment in the Fund by showing changes in the performance of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for the last ten calendar years and by comparing the Fund's average annual total returns to the performance of a broad-based securities market index and an additional index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund.The returns shown below are historical and are not an indication of future performance.Total return figures assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and include the effect of the Fund’s recurring expenses, but do not include fees and expenses of any Permitted Account. If the fees and expenses of any Permitted Account were reflected, the performance shown would be lower.Performance information prior to April 30, 2025, includes the performance of sub-advisers that no longer manage the Fund’s investment portfolio. Consequently, the Fund’s total returns shown below are not necessarily indicative of the performance of the Fund as it is currently managed.Updated performance information may be obtained at www.empower.com/investments/empower-funds/fund-documents (the website does not form a part of this Prospectus).

Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Foreign Securities Risk - Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, geopolitical (including war or armed conflict), regulatory, market, currency valuation, or economic or other developments and can perform differently than the U.S. market. Current tariffs, sanctions or the threat of potential tariffs, sanctions or other similar measures may also impair the value or liquidity of affected securities and negatively impact the Fund.

Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Market Risk - The value of the Fund’s investments may decrease, sometimes rapidly or unexpectedly, due to factors affecting (or perceived to affect) specific issuers held by the Fund, particular industries represented in the Fund’s portfolio, or the overall securities markets. A variety of factors can increase the volatility of the Fund’s holdings and markets generally, including political or regulatory developments, recessions, inflation, deflation, rapid interest rate changes, bank failures, war or acts of terrorism, sanctions, tariffs, natural disasters, outbreaks of infectious illnesses or other widespread public health issues, general outlook for corporate earnings, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Certain events may cause instability across global markets, including reduced liquidity and disruptions in trading markets, while some events may affect certain geographic regions, countries, sectors, and industries more significantly than others. These adverse developments may cause broad declines in an issuer’s value due to short-term market movements or for significantly longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

Risk Return Abstract |
rr_RiskReturnAbstract |
|
|
Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Growth Stock Risk - A growth style of investing is subject to the risk that returns on growth stocks are less than returns on other styles of investing or the overall stock market. Growth stocks can be volatile for several reasons. Since they usually reinvest a high proportion of earnings in their own business, they may not pay the dividends usually associated with value stocks that can cushion their decline in a falling market. Also, since investors buy these stocks because of the expected superior earnings growth, earnings disappointments may result in sharp price declines.

Empower International Growth Fund | Liquidity Risk [Member] |
|
|
|
Risk Return Abstract |
rr_RiskReturnAbstract |
|
|
Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Liquidity Risk - The Fund may not be able to sell a security at or near its perceived value in a timely manner (or at all) because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, little or no active trading market for a specific type of security, legal or contractual restrictions on resale, or a reduced number or capacity of market participants to make a market in such security. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to the remaining investors’ interest due to market conditions or other factors. Investments in many, but not all, foreign securities tend to have greater exposure to liquidity risk than domestic securities because secondary trading markets for these securities may be smaller and less well-developed and the securities may trade less frequently.

Large-Size Company Risk - Large-size companies are generally more mature and may be unable to respond as quickly as smaller companies to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes, and may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

|
|
|
Risk Return Abstract |
rr_RiskReturnAbstract |
|
|
Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Small- and Medium-Size Company Risk - The stocks of small- and medium-size companies often trade in lower volumes, may be less liquid, and are subject to greater or more unpredictable price changes than stocks of larger companies. Such companies may also have limited markets, financial resources or product lines, may lack management depth, and may be more vulnerable to adverse business or market developments. Accordingly, stocks of small- and medium-size companies tend to be more sensitive to changing economic, market, and industry conditions and tend to be more volatile and less liquid than stocks of larger companies, especially over the short term, and are more likely not to survive or accomplish their goals with the result that the value of their stock could decline significantly. In addition, there may be less publicly available information concerning small- and medium-size companies upon which to base an investment decision.

Empower International Growth Fund | Emerging Markets Risk [Member] |
|
|
|
Risk Return Abstract |
rr_RiskReturnAbstract |
|
|
Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Emerging Markets Risk - Emerging market countries generally have economic structures that are less diverse and mature, and political systems that are less stable, than those of developed countries. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based predominantly on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from limited reliable access to capital, extreme debt burdens, less established financial market operations or volatile inflation rates. The securities markets of emerging market countries may be subject to manipulation and have historically been extremely volatile and less liquid than more developed markets. These market conditions may continue or worsen. Investments in these countries may be subject to heightened political, geopolitical (including war or armed conflict), economic, legal, market, currency and tariff risks and other adverse local or regional developments, including heightened risk of war and ethnic, religious and racial conflicts. The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. and other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Differences in regulatory, accounting, auditing and financial reporting and recordkeeping standards could impede the availability of reliable information to evaluate and monitor local companies and impact the Fund’s performance. There is also the risk of negative foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.

|
|

|
|
Risk [Text Block] |
rr_RiskTextBlock |
Depositary Receipts Risk - Depositary receipts are generally subject to the same sort of risks as direct investments in a foreign country, such as, currency risk, political and economic risk, and market risk, because their values depend on the performance of a foreign security denominated in its home currency.

|

Derivatives Risk - The use of derivatives, including but not limited to currency forwards and futures, may expose the Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. These risks include imperfect correlations with underlying investments or the Fund’s other portfolio holdings, magnified losses resulting from leverage, counterparty risk, high price volatility, liquidity risk, segregation risk, valuation risk and legal restrictions.

Management Risk - A strategy, investment decision, technique, analysis, or model used by the portfolio managers may fail to produce the intended results or imperfections, errors or limitations in the tools and data used by the portfolio managers may cause unintended results. Therefore, the Fund could underperform in comparison to other funds with similar objectives and investment strategies and may generate losses even in a favorable market.

Environmental, Social and Governance Considerations Risk - The Fund’s portfolio selection strategy is not solely based on ESG considerations, and therefore the issuers in which the Fund invests may not be considered ESG-focused companies. Consideration of ESG factors may affect the Fund’s exposure to certain issuers or industries and may not work as intended. While ESG considerations may have the potential to contribute to the Fund’s long-term performance, there is no guarantee that such results will be achieved.
