How do you know when a man in the office becomes a father?
Well, for one thing, there's the bit where, if the new child will be covered under the father's health plan, he kinda has to tell HR about it. So they can, you know, change the coverage?
I live in Canada. We don't need to tell our employers about our families in order to receive health care. We still have a similar gender wage gap though.
Besides, if I did live in the US and the situation came up, I would be more likely to pay for my child's health insurance out of pocket than to take a $40,000 pay cut.
