Responsible Jewellery Council Reaches Membership Milestone

The Responsible Jewellery Council said that its membership has exceeded 250 companies and trade associations throughout the diamond, gold and platinum metals jewelry supply chain from around the world.

RJC, based in London, is an international not-for-profit organization that promotes responsible ethical, human rights, social and environmental practices in a transparent and accountable manner throughout the industry from mine to retail. Their commitment aims to reinforce consumer and stakeholder confidence in jewelry products.

Among the newest RJC members are Bottega Veneta, Christian Dior Couture, Gemological Science International, Girard-Perregaux, GCAL: Gem Certification & Assurance Lab, Inc, H.K. Designs (India) and Vacheron Constantin.

“RJC’s healthy membership reflects the growing awareness of the importance of ethical, human rights, social and environmental performance in the jewelry industry. RJC’s members are vital to cultivate future business ethical generations,” said Michael Rae, CEO of RJC.

Under the RJC system, all commercial members of the RJC have committed to be audited by accredited, third party auditors to verify their conformance with the RJC’s Code of Practices and become certified.
