HEARING SAFETY DEVICE

Devices, methods, and computer program products are provided herein for hearing safety. An example hearing safety device configured to be worn by a user includes an earmuff body that defines an interior cavity configured to receive the user's ear therein when worn by the user and an exterior surface opposite the interior cavity. The hearing safety device includes an ear lid attached to a surface of the interior cavity. The ear lid projects into the interior cavity from the surface of the interior cavity and defines a sealing surface configured to substantially seal an ear canal of the user's ear when the hearing safety device is worn by the user. The hearing safety device also includes an adjustment mechanism operably attached to the ear lid and configured to move the ear lid relative the interior cavity of the earmuff body.
