A substantial review of the literature was carried out to identify the constraining factors that affect the site waste management plan tool. Questionnaires were administered based on a five-point Likert scale and the data were assessed and analyzed using IBM SPSS version 28. The outcome showed that the knowledge of the SWMP is still very low in the Polish construction sector. Only 6% have a written SWMP while 16% have used this tool in their previous project. Hence, the need for the increased awareness of the SWMP as one of the waste management strategies. The lack of adequate monitoring and control of the SWMP, lack of awareness, time required for the preparation of the tool were identified as the top constraints. The solutions identified include; increased level of awareness and education, the inclusion of the SWMPas part of the contract documentation requirement, adequate training of the site personnel, and presence of waste manager.}, type={Article}, title={Identification of constraints for an effective application of construction waste management plan in Poland}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/128488/PDF/art29_int.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2023.146092}, keywords={constraints, construction and demolition waste, European Union, recycling, reuse, sitewaste management plan, waste management}, }
