• a lower base located under said upper knee cushion and manufactured from a material that is harder than the cushion material from which said upper knee cushion is manufactured, said lower base having a first and an opposite side and a shoulder located at each of said first and opposite sides, and said lower base being configured to lay on the work surface when the workman kneels on the work surface;
• and
• a spring located between said upper knee cushion and said lower base to undergo a compression in response to the workman's knee pressing down on the upper knee cushion towards said lower base when the workman kneels on the work surface and his knee is received against said upper knee cushion, said spring including at least one spring sheet manufactured from a flexible material having a spring memory,
• said spring sheet lying on and being supported by the shoulders at the first and opposite sides of said lower base so as to extend laterally across said lower base between the shoulders thereof such that said upper knee cushion lays on said spring sheet so as to suspend the workman's knee above the work surface,
• said knee pad assembly further comprising a compression space that is located between said spring sheet and said lower base, said spring sheet on which said upper knee cushion lays being held by said shoulders above said compression space and bending into said compression space such that said upper knee cushion moves towards said lower base in response to the workman's knee pressing down on said upper knee cushion.
