Incident/Accident on license.

I have watched a couple of youtube clips recently of gear up landings,I am curious to know: lets say your nose gear fails due to a technical fault with your aircraft and both pilots are forced to make a gear up landing IE (iran air/LOT/Jetblue) and even if the pilots do a perfect job tried everything etc to get the gear to drop,once the manouver has been completed succesfully do both pilots or the PF recieve an accident/incident on their license....?? I was just thinking if this happened to a crew on a summer contract which I am about to start they would never fly again as 90% of contracts require no accident or incident.

Its quite unfair when you think about it you do a trememdous job save lives etc only for you to probobly never ever fly again IE Peter Burkill from the BA T7 crash I read an article where it stated he could not find work after the crash despite his actions which undoubtebly saved lives.
