what we do
The jewellery and watch industry has a larger ambition to contribute to a better, fairer world
RJC’s standards are at the heart of that change. They enable companies, from mining to retail, to integrate responsible business practices into their management systems and daily operations. There are two standards available to RJC members: RJC Code of Practices (COP) and RJC Chain of Custody (COC). Through the implementation of the Code of Practices, members contribute towards the United Nations 2030 agenda and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
