Moving slightly back to the title.
Easy use AIMS and you can set it up to stop crews from flying if for example their OPC has expired. I imagine however it's not linked to licence / passport / medicals etc. From personal experience crewmembers are reminded in plenty of time, chased in plenty of time and 98% complete the task in a timely and organised way. Of the 2% that don't 1% eventually cough up the required copy for records within a week or so of expiry. The last 1% are chased forever and normally the intervention of a Mgmt Pilot does the trick.
At EZY it's probably a full time job reminding / chasing etc.
Out of all the above it's most likely that licences will slip the net due to a 10year expiry, passports don't normally as their is a level of self interest to renew i.e. family hols.
Regretable as the incident was, it was just an admin mistake. Ezy will tighten their procedures but it's nothing that doesn't happen across all UK Airlines.
We all make mistakes just as long as it doesnt happen again
