Common sense means most people working in this industry let other people know where they are going when possible. The problem is this is often not possible.
If you use an Android phone, you might want to consider a new application that has been launched by Google, Trusted Contacts. It looks like they will be launching an iOS version for iPhones soon and you can register to get a notification when it's available on the site.
You can share your location when you want to, for instance when meeting with a client. There is also a feature where someone you have nominated a trusted contact can - if they are worried about you - ask for a location share and will be able to see where your phone was last located if you don't respond within five minutes.
There are - obviously - some privacy implications, especially as the share happens automatically unless you respond. Make sure you read the instructions!
