San Ramon, California Dec 19, 2022 (Issuewire.com) – https://www.mbs.engineering/aboutmbs.html

Upon entering the MBS Engineering, Inc. (MBS) office located in San Ramon, CA you may be greeted by a serendipitous floor manager- a curious English bulldog puppy. A few steps further and you will notice the thriving environment, the hallmark of smart solutions and hard work. Success did not happen overnight, it was cultivated and carefully crafted with the customer experience and overall safety in mind. As a result, MBS is experiencing tremendous growth. Rapid growth creates a path for many processes to shift internally to accommodate for continued success. While fast-paced changes can pose a challenge for some companies, that is not the case for MBS.

Enter Jocelyn Powell. From the moment Powell joined the MBS team she stood out as an exceptional leader who was able to identify the inner workings and opportunities for seamless expansion. You will no doubt feel at ease when tackling objectives beside her as her calm and focused presence fills the room. Instrumental in all areas of the business, she continues to push MBS in an upward trajectory all while keeping a keen eye on the daily business details. In fact, her knowledge and business acumen make her the perfect business partner.

Jocelyn came to MBS Engineering Inc. with over 20 years of experience. As a first-generation Filipina immigrant at just 15 years old, she experienced firsthand the struggles of what it means to start from the bottom. It is with perseverance through adversity that Jocelyn has brought the archetypal qualities of success to everyone she has involved herself with.

She started as a Project Administrator in this industry and found herself advancing her skillset and title during notable projects such as Caltrans Oakland San Francisco Bay Bridge Project, PG&E Pipeline Safety Enhance Plan Program, PG&E Community Pipeline Safety Initiative, and the PG&E Geohazard Project.

“As someone who has lived in the Bay Area for most of my life, I’m invested in my community. That’s what gives my job purpose. My mission with MBS is to create a fluid workspace that is dedicated to efficiency, and detail and to serve my community through safety and quality assurance.”

Fast forward a year from when she started, and Jocelyn is now Chief Executive Officer and a partner with founder Brian James. A role she was seemly destined for with her tenacious work savvy and people skills. With the change in leadership, MBS has recently been certified as a Woman & Minority Business Enterprise. In addition to the new certifications, Jocelyn continues to embrace the details of running a fast-paced company which includes business management, contracts, certifications, safety, accounting, staffing, and everything in between.

With Powell at the helm, James continues to lead the team with his extensive technical knowledge of special projects. One such project is private power generation, which is set to reach new heights in 2023. Simply put, the market is changing, and customers are driving the demand for grid independence, efficiency, and lower costs. While MBS has over ten years of experience with microturbines, turbines, and reciprocating engines the recent surge has presented even more complex projects including microgrid installations.

The positive influence of community and safety doesn’t stop there. Working at MBS is to embrace those very same values the company was built upon. Dan Whaley-President and Logan Baron-Director of Project Management and Growth, continue to lead the core business with a wealth of engineering and safety experience. In an almost mind-reading manner, the two pivot from one topic to the next to discuss the intricacies of each project. This is no easy task as MBS offers a wide range of services including Natural Gas Services, Plumbing Services, Pipe Installations, Asphalt & Concrete, Micro Turbines, Excavation & Potholing, and Gas System Seismic Safety.

The synergy MBS has now reached with balancing an ever-growing business is remarkable. The team runs like a well-choreographed sports team with everybody embracing success and challenges. Observing the team, they are communicating and pitching in to help each other. That includes taking the floor manager on well-deserved breaks during the day.

Chesapeake, Virginia Dec 19, 2022 (Issuewire.com) – Former HRT Operator Takes Whistleblower Case to the ARB Pro Se

In a Recent TikTok, former HRT Operator, Rhonda Kirschmann stated that the first time she experienced an adverse employment action for adhering to Safety Policy was in 2012 and she’s been advocating for Safe Public Transit for a decade.

“When Public Transit isn’t safe for Transit Operator’s, it’s not safe for anyone”

Ms. Kirschmann filed a Whistleblower case with OSHA in 2017. The case stalled for 4 years, then didn’t result in a resolution. Ms. Kirschmann appealed to the ALJ, which also didn’t result in a resolution. Now finally, Ms. Kirschmann takes her Whistleblower Case to the Administrative Review Board, pro se. (ARB Case # EFS-ARB-2210-234368).

Ms. Kirschmann began working as a transit operator in April 2008. The first 4 years were uneventful until November 19, 2012, while departing Cedar Grove Parking Lot as route 20, she turned out of Cedar Grove Parking Lot onto Princess Ann Road. A woman walking up Princess Anne Road tried to hail the bus like a cab. The woman’s location was not merely an unauthorized stop location, it was a prohibited stop location. If Ms. Kirschmann had made the passenger stop, she could have been written up for violating safety policy, could have caused a bus-car collision or even a bus-bus collision, and been fired. Ms. Kirschmann did not make the prohibited stop, but the woman was able to call the “routing scheduling and information hotline,” and make a complaint giving false information that her location was up on the parking lot at the approved stop which resulted in Ms. Kirschmann being written up for adhering to safety policy. When Ms. Kirschmann advised the management of the woman’s factual location, rather than resolving the issue, it led to a hurricane of adverse employment actions.

That first adverse action for following safety policy was followed by more adverse actions for following safety policies. Twice Ms. Kirschmann adhered to her safety training to secure the bus before taking a personal break. One time, Ms. Kirschmann adhered to a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration Restriction. When HRT passengers didn’t like Public Transit Industry Safety and Security protocols and even FMCSA restrictions, they complained and Ms. Kirschmann faced adverse actions. Ultimately, the last adverse action Ms. Kirschmann experienced for following safety protocols was termination on February 13, 2017.

Rhonda Kirschmann resides in Chesapeake and is a legal advocate. She’s attended Virginia Judicial Reappointment interviews for a decade. She advocates strongly pertaining to defects in the Family Courts that have harmed over a million American lives since the early 1990s and for the UCCJEA to be strengthened. Ms. Kirschmann’s Original OSHA Whistleblower Statement, ALJ affidavits, Initial Brief to the ARB, and Petitioner’s Reply Brief related to Kirschmann v. Hampton Roads Transit are available as Kindle books for Free for anyone who has Kindle Unlimited and at a nominal cost for those who don’t.
