PNP STAND ON BASIC ISSUES
THE DEPLOYMENT AND EMPLOYMENT OF THE PNP PERSONNEL
REQUIRE THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS MEMBERS TO BARE THEIR
STAND ON THE FOLLOWING BASIC ISSUES.
1. PNP IMAGE – THE IMAGE OF ANY ORGANIZATION AFFECTS THE
ESPRIT D’ CORPS, MORALE AND WELFARE OF THE MEMBERS, AND
SENSE OF PRIDE TO THE ORGANIZATION. IN VIEW THEREOF, ALL
MEMBERS OF THE PNP SHOULD CONDUCT THEMSELVES IN MANNER
THAT WOULD NOT PLACE THE

PNP CORE VALUES IN VAIN AND POSSESS THE FOLLOWING VIRTUE:

HONOR E. HONESTY
INTEGRITY F. HUMILITY
VALOR G. CHARITY
JUSTICE H. LOYALTY TO THE SERVICE
2. CAREER MANAGEMENT, THE KEY TO PROFESSIONALISM
– THE PROPER IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PNP’S CAREER
MANAGEMENT WILL GREATLY ENHANCE THE PERSONNEL
PROFESSIONALIZATION PROCESS WITH REGARDS TO
PROCUREMENT, TRAINING, PROMOTION, ASSIGNMENT,
PLACEMENT, AWARDS AND RETIREMENT.

THE PNP SHALL FORMULATE A STRINGENT POLICY AND

STRICTLY IMPLEMENT THE HUMAN RESOURCES
DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM, COMPATIBLE TO THE EQUITABLE
DISTRIBUTION OF PROCUREMENT, FAIR PROMOTION,
RATIONALIZED APPROACH IN ASSIGNMENT, SKILL
DEVELOPMENT, IMMEDIATE GRANT OF REWARD AND
AWARD, AND DECENT LIVING UPON RETIREMENT.
 3. POLICE MANAGEMENT LEADERSHIP – THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT IS REFLECTIVE
OF THE MANAGERIAL CAPABILITIES AND COMPETENT
LEADERSHIP OF THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO RUN THE PNP
ORGANIZATION. THESE ATTRIBUTES MUST THEREFORE BE
ONE OF THE PRIMARY BASES FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE
SELECTION OF PERSONNEL FOR EMPLOYMENT AND
DEPLOYMENT PURPOSES.
 EQUALITY IN THE SERVICE – THERE SHALL BE JUDICIOUS
AND EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF OPPORTUNITY TO PROVE
ONE’S WORTH IN THE POLICE SERVICE. THE PROBLEM ON
INEQUITY THRU CLASS ORIENTATION AND FACTIONALISM,
BOTH REAL AND PERCEIVED, PREMISED ON FAVORED
ASSIGNMENT, INEQUITABLE OPPORTUNITY OF TRAINING,
UNFAIR GRANTING OF PROMOTION, AND UNTIMELY
AWARDING OF ACHIEVEMENTS, WILL CREATE AN
ATMOSPHERE OF DEMORALIZATION.
THE RESULT IS INEFFICIENCY AND LACK OF TEAMWORK TO
THE DETRIMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION. IT BEHOOVES.
THEREFORE, ON THE PNP LEADERSHIP ADDRESS THE
SITUATION. THE CIVILIAN CHARACTER OF THE
ORGANIZATION REQUIRES ADHERENCE TO THE RULE ON
MERIT AND FITNESS SYSTEM AND TO DISSOCIATE THE
ABOVE PROCESS FROM CLASS ORIENTATION AND
FACTIONALISM.
DELICADEZA - IN CONSONANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF
HONOR AND INTEGRITY IN THE PNP, ALL MEMBERS MUST
HAVE THE MORAL COURAGE TO SACRIFICE SELF-INTEREST
IN KEEPING WITH THE TIME-HONORED PRINCIPLE OF
DELICADEZA.
POLICE LIFESTYLE - THE PNP SHALL PROMOTE AND
MAINTAIN A LIFESTYLE FOR ITS MEMBERS WHICH THE
PUBLIC WILL FIND CREDIBLE AND RESPECTABLE. THE
PUBLIC EXPECTS A POLICE OFFICER TO LIVE A SIMPLE AND
DIGNIFIED LIFE. THEY MUST BE FREE FROM GREED
CORRUPTION AND EXPLOITATION.
 POLITICAL PATRONAGE- PNP MEMBERS SHALL
INHIBITS THEMSELVES FROM SOLICITING
PATRONAGE ON MATTERS PERTAINING TO
ASSIGNMENT, AWARD, TRAINING AND PROMOTION.

HUMAN RIGHTS- ALL PNP MEMBERS SHALL RESPECT

AND PROTECT HUMAN DIGNITY AND MAN’S
INALIENABLE RIGHTS TO LIFE, LIBERTY AND
PROPERTY
