Local government pension and working again

Hi
I was retired through ill health in 1989 by the city council appointed GP, who said i would not work again.
I am receiving a pension which is index linked every month for life.
Would i be able to work for the Royal mail group if an opportunity arises, as i have been told that there is a list of companies i would not be able to work for if i am in receipt of the pension, Is this true,
thanks for any advice

    Yes it is true, although I'm not so sure it only lists some companies. It all depends on the type of ill-health retirement that you have.
