ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Belle Tire Distributors Inc. is incentivizing employees who get the COVID-19 vaccination, awarding them $25 per vaccine visit.
Allen Park-based Belle Tire has more than 2,300 employees at 127 locations in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. The company emphasized that it is not mandating employees to get the vaccine.
Don Barnes III, president of family-owned Belle Tire, commended his employees who "have been working in our stores throughout this pandemic to help our customers keep their tires in good condition and vehicles on the road so that they could get the food, medication, supplies and medical treatment they need. That's why we want to encourage all of our employees to get vaccinated and protect themselves."
