The Responsible Jewelery Council (RJC) published its first Industry Impact Report, Building Responsible Jewelery Supply Chains, which examines the early years of the validation of RJC certification programs for the period from 2010 to 2013 years.
The main goal of the report is to answer the question "What is the significance and influence of this program?". As a full member of the International Alliance for Social and Environmental Accreditation and Labeling (ISEAL Alliance), the RJC must report annually on the implementation of its monitoring and evaluation programs. This process gives RJC valuable feedback and an idea of the effectiveness of its activities and leads to improvement.
The report is based on audit data and independent research. He showed that RJC is an effective catalyst for change, helping companies "create better business practices."
