A rota system schedules working shifts (also used for classes, etc.) so that all people involved share the different shifts evenly.
In your example, the TV news is handled by 4 interpreters, so depending on the number of news bulletins at the TV station in question, the working roster would be set up so that all 4 interpreters would evenly share the early morning / daytime / evening news bulletins, across both weekdays and potentially weekends as well, in a way that ensures that no one interpreter is more disadvantaged than any other. That is, all interpreters work an even share of each type of shift across the roster.
