Abstract: Irrespective of the significant position of museum to the human society, museum is still posed with some challenges which work against its growth and sustenance. Among these challenges are hazards in the museum. Most people would not like to visit or work in a place where their total safety is less guaranteed. This scenario has attracted safety considerations in the museum management. To this regard, this paper had an in-depth study on safety issues in museum management. Adopting the bulk of its primary data from a fieldwork report on Nri Museum in Anambra State of Nigeria, the paper made use of HaCEM analysis which enabled it to study hazards, causes, effects and measures with respect to the museum experience. To this end, possible causes of hazards (minor and major) in the museum, their causes (minor and major), their effects (external and internal) and their control measures (mitigating and eradicating), were unveiled and discussed in the paper. Such studies would improve safety standard of museums, especially Nigerian museums, which would invariably enhance the growth and sustenance of museum and its contribution to humanity.
