You could use the CHGQRYA command in the initial program for each user 
to set the QRYTIMLMT for each job. This would not affect batch queries. 
The CHGQRYA command requires the user to have *JOBCTL so the program 
must adopt suitable authority.

If you want more control over the query attributes you could use the 
CHGQRYOPT command in the base component of ONcmd. This is a free 
feature. See

for more information.
