I can't see an upside for the company to do this; unless they also would like to havde that person not work there and cannot find a suitable cause to terminate them. The company would have to lie to the gov't, and by doing so leave them open to being sued for additional severance.
And also having been laid off this year, looking at how little EI pays, and being fortunate enough to find another job right away; the last thing I would want to encourage is somebody to abuse the system.
