PNP STATEMENT
The Philippine National Police reiterates its firm commitment to discipline, professionalism, and ethical conduct as the core foundations of the police service. The PNP Code of Professional Conduct and Ethical Standards strictly governs the behavior of all personnel to protect the integrity of the organization and sustain public trust.
The PNP maintains a policy of zero tolerance for any immoral, illegal, or unethical act that tarnishes the image of the service or undermines public confidence.
All PNP personnel are reminded that they are expected to remain physically, emotionally, and psychologically fit to perform their duties at all times. Any behavior that impairs judgment, weakens control, or poses risk to others is unacceptable. Police authority, particularly the handling of fi****ms and enforcement powers, must always be exercised with restraint, vigilance, and full accountability.
Unit commanders and heads of offices are directed to enforce close supervision, uphold strict discipline, and act decisively on any misconduct. Command responsibility applies at all levels, and failure to enforce standards will be dealt with in accordance with the law.
The PNP emphasizes that wearing the uniform is a privilege that carries immense responsibility. Discipline, accountability, and integrity are non-negotiable in ensuring that the organization remains worthy of the trust and confidence of the Filipino people.
Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.
