The mechanics are going to vary by where you live and the people you work for. It is very likely that things are going to be very different from one place to another.

In my area not necessarily or something many concern themselves with. There is no mandated procedure to blow the whistle just because you are in these situations. Some might do so, but there is no mechanic that requires such a thing.

I do not blow the whistle on most throw-ins. I mainly blow the whistle on delays and I feel players might not be paying attention. This is not a big deal where I live.
