The consumer also benefits from the NAJ . There is a code of ethics that ensures honesty, integrity and clarity on price. All member jewellers have to adhere to this code and consumers are able to contact the NAJ to enquire about members. The NAJ also provides a consumer advice section on their website and a complaints procedure to ensure consumers have access to a free resolution process with members.
