Sustainable development of construction contractors of the Republic of Moldova in the context of waste generation and processing

The article deals with the formation and processing of construction waste resulting from the activities of construction organizations. Every year there is a growth in the volume of construction products, which leads, among other things, to an increase in the volume of generated waste. The aim of this scientific research is to study the preconditions of sustainable development of construction enterprises in the Republic of Moldova in the context of waste management. As a hypothesis, it was assumed that the scale of formation and processing of construction waste affects the profitability of contractors. The initial information for the research was the data characterizing the activity of the construction enterprises of the Republic of Moldova for the last 6 years. Methods of economic analysis and methods of correlation regression were used as research methods. The results of the correlation analysis showed that 99.27% of the profitability of sales of construction enterprises depends on the factors reflecting different aspects of waste formation and management, which makes it possible to directly create prerequisites for long-term and efficient management of construction waste.
