A rota is a schedule that assigns people to particular duties or shifts.
The opening of a boutique, a late shift and a weekend stocktake are separate duties that can appear on a rota. The schedule identifies who is responsible on a given day, while the contracted hours set out how much time the person is employed to work. A vacancy that asks someone to manage the rota gives them a different responsibility from one that asks them to work shifts shown on it.
