Upon taking the oath and assumption to office, you are invested by the people and the

law with the authority as law enforcer.

The PNP Badge pinned on your left breast is the symbol of that legal authority: it is so
placed, nearer to your heart, to remind you of the fidelity and dedication to duty
expected of you as a public servant.

You have been entrusted with badge as a symbol of your worthiness as a police officer to
serve and protect the people from whom you derived the power and authority, to
enforce the laws of the land without fear or favor.

You are to oversee the general welfare of the people and ensure that peace and order is
maintained at all times. You shall ever be mindful that the police are the protector of the
weak, defender of the innocent and advocate of human rights.

At the center of your badge is the PNP seal held bravely by your hero, Lapu-Lapu, the
first Filipino to defend our country against foreign invaders despite being inferiorly
equipped.

Inside the seal are the virtues of service, honor and justice. They remind you to always
render the highest form of public service for our fellowmen. You are to serve the
citizenry with the commitment of sacrifice and willingness to die in the service of God,
country, and people.

Duty and honor now bind you to be faithful to the trust bestowed upon you by the
people. Your badge reminds you to maintain the dignity of your character at all times
and to strenuously enforce by example, a steady obedience to the laws of the land.

Exemplary conduct on your part will convince our people that you merit the just title
and authority as you patrol the street and walk your daily beat.

Walk tall, head up and bravely face the daily dangers of duty. Keep the badge unsullied
and free of any breach of fidelity by the regularity of your conduct. Always endeavor to
avoid any aspersion against our institution.

You are to preserve our cherished customs and traditions and never countenance any
deviation from them nor allow them to be infringed.

Your dignity as a police officer symbolized by the badge is now pinned in your heart.
Never swerve from your solemn oath of office, violate your vows or betray the public
trust.

You are a police office… wear your badge with honor!

LAW ENFORCEMENT CODE OF ETHICS “As a law enforcement
officer, my fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and
property, to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against
oppression or intimidation, and the peaceful against violence or disorder,
and to respect the constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality and
justice. “I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all,
maintain courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn or ridicule;
develop self-restraint, and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others.
Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and official life, I will
be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land and the regulations of my
department. Whatever I see or hear of a confidential nature or that is
confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless
revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. “I will never act
officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities, or
friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for crime
and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law
courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will,
never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting
gratuities. “I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public
faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to
the ethics of the police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these
objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen
profession . . . law enforcement.”
