My team has a brilliant solution for this:

A wiki.

You can't start on project #2 till #2 is fully documented. 
Projects #1, #2 and #3 etc are all on our Key Performance Indicators for each 
half-year.
Yearly bonus and salary increase depends only on Performance Appraisal 
interview.
Technical aspects of Performance Appraisal interview depends only on progress 
through your projects.

See where this is going?
No documentation = no knowledge transfer = no wage increase.
