film introduces students to the issue of discrimination based on sexual orientation and HIV status at the workplace. We believe this to be an important subject. Issues of diversity and discrimination are keenly debated within the managerial literature.

The woman was not fired because she was a heterosexual. Andrew contracted the disease through intercourse with another man. So when they found out that he was gay and that he also had AIDS that was the last straw for them.
He was successful in his duplicity. The partners at Wyant-Wheeler did not know that Andrew Beckett had AIDS when they fired him. They wrongfully terminated Beckett just because of the fact that he had AIDS.

Yes, it was fairly obvious that Andrew’s law firm fired him because he had AIDS because the defense argued that Andrew went to great lengths to conceal that he had AIDS; which should be an invalid reason to fire someone, hence this hinted at the true reason the frim fired Andrew. Which was due to the fact that he had AIDS.
