HI, As far as I have seen the temporary files will be deleted at the end of Job execution. The temporary files are the output of your map and reduce.
If it is not deleted, please confirm if there is any parameter set in your environment - to retain the logs.

Yes, it should be safe to delete these for completed jobs (its usually used to keep around job history files, which is moved to the done location after the job is completed (in whatever end state)).
