That's how I handled it at my former employer. I built a command interface for the operators to either start/end the watch or to explicitly enable a specific profile.
I never got around to adding the tracking I wanted so, after X# of attempts by the watch for any individual user, it would require intervention.
Whenever it did a reset, it did get logged to QSYSOPR/QHST though.

Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] CPIB682 - User profile disabled for...
Hi, Rob, ... and everyone interested...,
I found a nice alternative, based on the same APIs used by GO NETS.
See:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/cl-program-and-command-enable-netserver-users
With this command in place, you can then set up a "watch" (STRWCH) for CPIB682, and then check if it is one of those users who always disables themselves, and just have the watch run the RSTNETUSR command, plugging in the name of that user profile ... :-)
Just set it and forget it! :D
Cheers,
Mark S. Waterbury

Both simply patch a situation caused by failure to
1 - Change QPWDLVL to 3.
2 - Keep passwords in sync.
