Flight Data records
Regarding the flight data. When a parameter is exceeded, it is flagged and examined by the "gatekeeper". If deemed necessary, the gatekeeper may phone up and have a chat with the pilot(s) involved. If there is a good explanation, then no further action is taken. If not, then the issue is handed over to one of the fleet supervisors. The fleet supervisor may then call in the pilot(s) involved for an interview and review. If it is a serious matter and there is some issue with the individual(s), then there may be more serious consequences.
In my limited experience working for Qatar Airways, there have not been any terminations without just cause. There are other aspects of working here which bear closer examination (and evaluation for potential employees), but unjustified termination does not, currently, seem to be one of them.
Edit to correct spelling
