Systems like that aren't about punishment, they're about prevention. Any employer with any sense would rather convince employees not to steal in the first place than jail them afterwards. That kind of system is a way to (hopefully) convince them "if you try it, we'll catch you, so don't even try."
(I offer no comment on how effective it is, but it's a logical theory.)
