There is no entitlement to any of the free shares that have already been issued. There are probably still some to be issued and you may have an entitlement there, as/if and when they are given out it will be to everyone employed on a certain date - is you were in by that date you will get an allocation.
All companies have to provide a pension to their staff so you are contributing to a Royal Mail pension. You should have received some paperwork on it when you joined, or you will do soon.

All companies above a certain size have to offer their employees a pension, ones with only a handful of employees have until 1st February 2018 to offer one. New starters will be automatically enrolled after 3 months but they can opt out if they want to. Perhaps this is applies to Zarkander?
