Hi

I am unsure as to how to translate this. It appears in the following sentence:

"Le soumissionnaire mentionne ci-après les majorations de prix appliquées dans le cadre des dispositions sectorielles relatives au travail de nuit, du dimanche et du travail lors des jours de fête."

Thanks for your help

provisions for each sector/department/division


Explanation:
Hopefully the document has additional context elsewhere that helps to clarify the reference of "sectoriel".

Btw, I know the dictionary says "sectoral" is a word but I can never bring myself to use it ;)
