An industrial safety assembly to be worn on a worker head in an industrial setting, the assembly including a speaker assembly structured and disposed to audibly communicate an audio signal received by a receiver assembly to the wearer through a speaker head. The speaker head, which is structured to be inserted into one of the wearer's ears so that the audio signal is clearly audible to the wearer in a loud industrial environment, is flexibly and communicably secured to the receiver assembly so as to permit variable positioning of the speaker head in accordance with a location of the wearer's ears. Further included in the safety assembly are a pair of disposable protective ear inserts structured to be inserted into the wearer's ears so as to substantially muffle any exterior noise. The protective inserts are removably secured to the speaker assembly such that each user can utilize their own clean pair. As such, a first of the protective inserts includes a bore formed therein and structured to receive the speaker head snugly, yet removably therein so that the audio signal is clearly audible to the wearer, the exterior noise is substantially muffled, and the speaker head is shielded from contact with the wearer and from perspiration or other body contaminants of the wearer.
