We also test on hire. Is there any literature out there that substantiates color vision testing more often?

I test on hire. It was the process before to only test nurses, but I think color coding is used everywhere in the hospital, so I test everyone.
Have never thought to repeat the testing

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 ?
Thank you,
