If I understand you correctly, I would use the ctmfw <path/file> CREATE 1 1 1 1 60

Run it cyclic every 60 min from end of job execution. In STEPS tab in the on statement for COMPSTAT=7 do mail "no files arrive in the past hour...blah blah blah", cut a ticket, use automated notification system, etc. (depending on your environment).
