The RJC is a standards-setting organization that has been established to advance responsible ethical, human rights, social and environmental practices throughout the diamond, gold and platinum group metals jeweler supply chain.
The RJC has developed a benchmark standard for the jeweler supply chain and credible mechanisms for verifying responsible business practices through third party auditing.
As a proud RJC Member, we commit to operating our business in accordance with the RJC Code of Practices. We commit to integrating ethical, human rights, social and environmental considerations into our day-to-day operations, business planning activities and decision making processes.
