Indeed, they also said that previous time off for ill health wasn't a reason either.

but looking at the number of people who had taken leave, it suggests otherwise.

You can believe whatever conspiracy theories you want, of course, but the most straightforward explanation is that when you lay off X,000 or XX,000 people, some number of them will be on leave.

[KaiserPro]

In London, large number of people on sick leave, or were recently on sick leave were fired. I was there, I saw the people, did the numbers.
