| Performance Narrative [Text Block] | 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 Class A shares for the last ten calendar years and by comparing its average annual total return to the performance of a broad-based securities market index and a composite index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund. The composite index is derived by applying the Fund’s target asset allocation among the asset classes over time to the results of the following indexes: the S&P 500® Index (large blend); the S&P MidCap 400® Index (mid blend); the S&P SmallCap 600® Index (small blend); the MSCI EAFE Index (international large blend); the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (diversified emerging markets); and the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (intermediate term bond). Please see Appendix A of the Fund’s Prospectus for more information regarding the composite index. 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 reflect the impact of sales charges or the Guarantee Benefit Fee. If the sales charges or the Guarantee Benefit Fee were reflected, the performance shown would be lower.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). |
