Hearing Protection in Australia & NZ

In Australia and New Zealand, hearing protection must comply with the AS/NZS 1270:2002 standard. This certification ensures that ear plugs and earmuffs have been independently tested and rated for their effectiveness in reducing noise. It’s a crucial requirement for workplace safety and helps consumers make informed choices about what level of protection they need.
One key part of this standard is the SLC80 rating — which tells you how many decibels of noise the product will block out for 80% of wearers. Based on this number, products are also grouped into Class 1 to Class 5, with Class 5 offering the highest level of protection. This makes it easy to match ear plugs to specific environments, whether it’s a quiet workshop or a high-noise construction site.
At Earjobs, we stock a wide range of certified hearing protection products — so whether you’re buying for yourself or your team, you can be confident they meet strict local standards.
Electronic Ear Muffs

Electronic ear muffs offer active hearing protection, meaning they don’t just block sound — they intelligently manage it. These muffs use built-in microphones and speakers to amplify safe sounds like speech or ambient noise, while instantly compressing loud sounds like gunfire, power tools, or machinery.
That makes them ideal for environments where you need to stay aware and communicate — without sacrificing protection. You’ll still hear range commands, co-workers, or natural sounds, but sudden loud noises are automatically reduced to safe levels.
Whether you’re at the shooting range, on the job site, or in a tactical setting, electronic ear muffs give you the best of both worlds: situational awareness and serious protection.
Electronic Ear Muff Features

When choosing electronic ear muffs, start by thinking about your environment. For shooting and hunting, look for rapid noise compression and directional microphones to keep your hearing safe while tracking movement or following range commands. For workplace use, focus on models with SLC80 certification, long battery life, and clear voice pickup for team communication.
Many electronic ear muffs also include Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to stream music or take calls while staying protected. Others feature foldable designs, replaceable ear cushions, or auxiliary input jacks for radios and comms gear.
At Earjobs, we stock a curated selection of electronic muffs built for comfort, clarity, and certified protection — whether you're on the range, in the workshop, or out in the field.

Protect your hearing while staying aware of your surroundings with our range of electronic ear muffs, trusted by Australians and New Zealanders working in loud environments or participating in shooting sports. Unlike traditional muffs, electronic models actively reduce harmful noise while allowing you to hear safe sounds like speech, alarms, or environmental cues.

Ideal for use on construction sites, factory floors, shooting ranges, and even DIY workshops, these ear muffs feature built-in microphones and smart volume control that compress loud noises while amplifying safe ones.

Whether you're protecting your hearing on the job or at the range, you'll find the perfect blend of technology and protection in this collection.

How do electronic ear muffs protect your hearing differently from standard muffs?

Unlike traditional ear muffs that block all sound equally, electronic ear muffs use built-in microphones and smart circuitry to detect and reduce harmful noise—like machinery or gunfire—while still letting you hear safe sounds such as voices and ambient noise. This makes them ideal for situations where you need protection but can’t afford to be cut off from your surroundings.

Are electronic ear muffs suitable for workplace use?

Yes. Many of the electronic ear muffs we stock are ideal for high-noise work environments like construction, manufacturing, or landscaping. They help protect your hearing while allowing you to hear co-workers or warning signals on site.

Do electronic ear muffs offer Bluetooth or audio connectivity?

Several models include Bluetooth connectivity, letting you stream music, take calls, or connect to a two-way radio while wearing them. Others include AUX inputs or built-in radios, making them perfect for long workdays or recreational use.

Are electronic ear muffs certified to Australian and New Zealand standards?

Many of our models are certified to AS/NZS 1270, ensuring they meet the safety and performance requirements for hearing protection in both Australia and New Zealand. Check the product details for certification and ratings.

What are the best electronic ear muffs for shooting and hunting?

For shooting and hunting, look for low-profile electronic ear muffs with fast sound compression and directional microphones. These help you stay aware of your surroundings while protecting your hearing from gunfire and other loud sounds. Our favourites are from brands like AXIL, ISOtunes and Howard Leight

How long do the batteries last in electronic ear muffs?

Battery life varies by model, but most electronic ear muffs run for 200–350 hours on a set of AA or AAA batteries. Some Bluetooth-enabled models may have rechargeable batteries with 8–20 hours of playtime. Always check the specs for full details.
