Within my company, a number of internal services use our employee number in the URL.

I would like to have bookmarklets that can find and extract the employee number from the current page in my browser, then insert the employee number into a different URL for another internal service that uses the employee number as a parameter..

Is there a microformat that would help me find the employee number on a page?

Is there a microformat to indicate that a string is an employee number, or more generically, an identifier from a particular identifier system or identity provider.

Sounds like a use case for URIs [1] and/or UIDs [2].

It also sounds like a very specific use case. Create your own standard markup and write the bookmarklet then share as much as you can. Perhaps others will follow suit and create a common practice.
