QFT, and Fit Test, etc.

Has anyone stopped doing physicals for new hires (other than below)?
We are considering doing a brief questionnaire, titers, immunizations, UDS, color vision for those doing POCT, respirator clearance, and fit
testing
There may be state requirements for some, but is anyone aware of a federal requirement to do more?
Thank you
