The Best Practice Principles (BPP) and RJC Assurance Program:
The De Beers Best Practice Principles (BPP) and Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) Assurance Program are two important initiatives in the jewellery industry that aim to promote ethical, social, and environmental responsibility in the production and trade of jewellery.
The Best Practice Principles are a set of standards developed by the DeBeers for the responsible sourcing of precious metals and Natural Diamonds. The BPP covers subjects such as human rights, labour rights, health and safety, environmental impact, anti-money laundering and anticorruption measures. The DeBeers requires its accredited Sightholders to adhere to the BPP in order to maintain their accreditation.
The Responsible Jewellery Council is a nonprofit organization that works to promote responsible business practices in the jewellery industry. The RJC's Assurance Program is a certification system that assesses the social, ethical, and environmental performance of Diamond & jewellery companies. Companies that meet the RJC's Code of Practice guidelines are granted certification, which can help to build trust with customers and stakeholders.
Together, the Best Practice Principles and RJC Assurance Program represent important steps towards promoting responsible practices in the Gems & Jewellery industry. By encouraging transparency and accountability, these initiatives help to build trust and promote sustainable development in the industry.
Benefits of BPP/RJC Certification:
