You ONLY need
one employer letter from your current sponsor
1 - Even though the online form may (inaccurately) mention this, according to the immigration rules there is no specific requirement for any evidence or letter to cover periods of absences. Just get your sponsor to confirm in the letter that they approved all the periods of absence from work. The details of what you did during these periods are not important. Your sponsor is not expected to know what you did during your periods of absence from work
The immigration rules do not require details:
indefinite-leave-to-remain/tier-2-set-o ... l#p2027888
2- The employer letter needs to specify that you are needed for the foreseeable future:
The eligibility rules (paragraph SW 24.1.) require the sponsor to still hold a Skilled
Worker licence. The sponsor must confirm they require the applicant to work for
them for the foreseeable future, and the applicant will be paid at least the minimum
salary in paragraph SW 24.3. for the foreseeable future. The sponsor should not
assign a new CoS for this purpose – an e-mail or letter is sufficient, as long as it can
be verified with the sponsor if necessary.

4. Your employer letter must be dated within 28 days of applying online, so it
cannot be dated
after you submit your application online !
