Why do the British call it "redundancies". Seems like a weird way of saying we're laying people off
Something that is redundant is not needed, it's a descriptive term. Layoff is a relatively recent US euphemism meaning relax or rest which became associated with non-working periods for seasonal work then evolved to cover redundancies. The US term is the weird one here.
Interesting! I see your point, appreciate it
