Clearly they would never have been hired in the first place ifthe employer was "bigoted" against homosexuals.
This is another one of those goofy PC bills that would become a feeding fest for law school grads and yet another red flag for employers.
It makes more sense NOT to hire homosexuals at all and so avoid the risk of malicious or frivolous litigation.
| There is that possibility that a poor performer could sue on the grounds that he was fired because he is gay. As frivolous as his case may be, it will still cost the company a fuckload of money in lawyers fees. |
