You can define transactional-attributes to a given step. (https://docs.spring.io/spring-batch/trunk/reference/htmlsingle/#transactionAttributes)

Transaction attributes can be used to control the isolation, propagation, and timeout settings.

<step id="step1">
  <tasklet>
      <chunk reader="itemReader" writer="itemWriter" commit-interval="2"/>
      <transaction-attributes isolation="DEFAULT"
                              propagation="REQUIRED"
                              timeout="30"/>
  </tasklet>
</step>
