OK, business owner here. I had a conversation about this with another business owner yesterday. Please don't take this as any endorsement for/against the vaccine, but rather a little insight into what MAY actually be the reason.
When a company has a positive test, we have an obligation to do contact tracing, blah blah blah and send people home for the requisite amount of time to make sure they aren't positive. The exception to that now is that vaccinated people do NOT have to be sent home. From an operations standpoint the fewer people I have to send home the better. The only way I can make that determination though is with proof of who got poked. In order to entice people to provide proof OP's company is offering some cash.
I can't pretend to know the intentions or politics of OP's company, but I know that the vast majority of us in small business are playing the same shitty hand we were all dealt and trying to best navigate it to survive. If that means figuring out one way or another who we theoretically don't have to pay to sit on their ass at home, then so be it.
Yeah I wasn’t clear. I’m not the one requiring this, the other business owner I was speaking with is. He’s just having them show HR the card. No follow up or anything, we’re all adults. I have no intention of requiring anything but if the information is volunteered I’ll certain make note of it in case I need to quarantine folks.
Added complication: if someone has recovered from Covid, they are immune. They don't need to be vaxxed anymore. Furthermore, vaxxed people can still spread the disease, whereas recovered people do not. How are you going to monitor that?
