1.Identify the work ethics and values of the policeman.
The work ethics and values of the policeman should include honesty, integrity, objectivity, and fairness. He should have presented only the facts and evidence that he had witnessed, without making any unfounded assumptions or judgments about the teenager's alleged involvement in illegal drugs.

Additionally, he could have consulted with his superiors or legal experts to ensure that his testimony was based on sound legal principles and procedures.

Situation No. 2:
A bridge was built with substandard materials. The civil engineer gave an estimated budget of 1.5 million to build the bridge but only P750,00.00 was spent for the materials. The other P750,000.00 was shared by the rest of the construction workers.

The ethical issue in this situation is that the bridge was built with substandard materials which could compromise the safety of the people who will use it. Additionally, the civil engineer and construction workers involved in the project engaged in unethical behavior by misusing funds and not following ethical standards in their work.

2.What should be done?
The bridge should be inspected by a qualified engineer to determine if it is safe for use. The civil engineer who provided the estimated budget and oversaw the construction of the bridge should be held accountable for their actions. The construction workers who shared the remaining budget should also be held accountable for their actions. The company or organization responsible for the construction of the bridge should review and revise their ethical standards and procedures to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again in the future.
