It's not about the company caring or not having a MR/PR, it is about the subject in the photo allowing the use.
Are you negotiating the image as RF or RM? If RM, you can clearly specify in the contract/invoice what is the allowed use of the image. If there is a person in it and you don't have a release, you should not sell it for commercial purposes, as you don't know if the person would have allowed it.
I've read many times that it is actually the final user's responsability to be legally correct on this matter, but I would not like to know a photo I shot was used incorrectly and that I did not take any attempt to prevent it. The terms in contract/invoice would be your proof that you acted correctly.
