Literally last week I went through the training. Vaccination was one of the specific issues covered, along with the religious objection and that we were not allowed to request proof. It is possible that the corporate counsel is overly conservative... I am just stating what is part of management training for large corporations in California currently. As noted, the term "sincere religious beliefs" is the new standard, it does not have to be a long established, organized, or widely recognized religion. Given this, I doubt proof of belief is even possible.
Edited: Changed "illegality of requesting proof" to "we are not allowed to request proof", since it may be corporate policy, not law.
