Unfortunately, I was out of town during the survey and going by notes left for me. 
HR director and my survey stand-in EH nurse stated it had to do with visual changes over time; therefore, to decrease SSE it was recommended to retest periodically areas where color vision is a concern.
In particular, Nursing, Maintenance (electricians), bronch lab, surgery and any area who would conduct POC testing , etc... It apparently is a big concern now with survey teams. 
Thank you,

In a recent MOCK survey, color vision was a hot topic.
I am curious if any repeat color vision testing on employees after the on boarding HA process? If so, could you share your policy, protocol and process ?

We do it for all employees at on boarding also.  if they are color blind and If color discrimination is needed, we notify the manager that they have a restriction/limitation and may need an accommodation. At that point the ADA coordinator becomes involved.
