The Responsible Jewelry Council
The Responsible Jewelry Council (RJC) is a global organization that sets standards for ethical and sustainable practices in the jewelry industry. It certifies companies committed to responsible sourcing of materials, fair working conditions, environmental protection, and transparency. By complying with RJC standards, jewelry businesses demonstrate their dedication to integrity, social responsibility, and sustainable development, helping consumers make informed choices. The RJC also encourages collaboration among industry stakeholders to improve practices and reduce negative impacts across the supply chain, ensuring jewelry is produced ethically from mine to retailer.
