The Responsible Jewellery Council

The Responsible Jewellery Council

The Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) boasts more than 1,600 members representing all aspects of the supply chain from mine to retail. We ask that all suppliers in our supply chain become active members of the RJC and adhere to its strict standards. This is your assurance that diamonds purchased from Peoples Jewellers help create a positive impact on nearly a million people in some of the most vulnerable regions in the world.

A Global Impact

Our parent company, Signet Jewelers, operates a diamond cutting and polishing facility in Botswana, Africa, enabling us to offer employment opportunities, particularly to women, in sub-Saharan Africa. In India, where 90% of the world’s rough diamonds are sent, we partner with several manufacturing facilities that exclusively cut and polish diamonds for Signet. Our deep-rooted partnerships with the jewellery manufacturing industry in India make us a large contributor to India’s diamond industry and help remote regions flourish. As an active and staunch advocate for fair wages and labor practices in the jewellery supply chain, we are helping to inspire love around the world.
