Compared with the province, Roberval is unusually concentrated in health care (23.6% of jobs versus 14.2% provincially). Local suppliers, trades and service firms often ride the same cycle. A second, smaller concentration is retail (16.5% of local workers).
Hospitals, schools and public offices anchor local jobs. That tends to smooth retail and service deposits. January and February are the quiet stretch for many Roberval retailers.
Funders read at least four months of statements; a full year shows the pattern best.
A family medical clinic in Roberval with about $74,000 in monthly deposits takes $41,000 to cover payroll during a slow-paying contract at a 1.26 factor rate, for a total payback of $51,660 over about 6 months. That works out to roughly $1,988 a week, or about 12% of monthly deposits; the cost is fixed at $10,660 however quickly it is repaid on schedule.
