How to restrict account to one log-in?

Our users have the tendency to use only one login account, to do their jobs. Obvious itīs a matter of training our users. But our internal audit team insists on restrictions from our system.

So is there an option to restrict an account to only login once into the system?

We use HP-UX 11.0.

Thanks in advance for your answers.
