After proving their vaccination, the company posted on Instagram Monday that it had rewarded four warehouse workers and one Whole Foods worker. Each worker received a card valued at up to $40,000.
According to another post, last week, bonuses of $100,000 were awarded to two Amazon employees, and one Whole Foods worker, according the report.

Last month, Max Your Vax announced its sweepstakes. Amazon employees who have been vaccinated can win $100,000 or $500,000 and a new car, or a week of vacation with $12,000 off.
The sweepstakes ends Oct. 21. A frontline employee of Amazon must be employed at the time of entry, during the sweepstakes period, and be fully vaccinated.
