How Sort My Shifts helps
Tell Sort My Shifts how you actually work—your rota, contracted hours, childcare and other commitments. It shows what fits, what clashes and where hours would need to move, so you can take a realistic option to your employer.
Your work. Your week.
Explore reduced hours, different limits or dropping specific shifts before you speak to your employer.
See how childcare, recovery, family time and other commitments fit around your working pattern.
An earlier version had a shortened sequence. Your draft has been kept unchanged. Choose the corrected 35-day example again and check it against your roster before exporting.

Choose your rota. Check the dates. Take it with you.
VSA setup
Choose a starting pattern for your VSA
A VSA sets locally agreed working hours; it does not prescribe one national repeating rota. Choose the sequence you actually intend to calendar.
Add your own repeating pattern
Use D for day, B for back/late, N for night and O for a day off.
12-week calendar files are free. Six- and twelve-month purchases remain closed until payments launch.

About Sort My Shifts
Work takes time. Planning it should take less.
Our aim is simple: help people see how work fits around real life before they commit to a change. Whether you work shifts or are considering flexible working or reduced hours, start with your own pattern. Built for nurses, emergency-service workers, transport and security teams, hospitality staff, manufacturing workers—and anyone whose working hours do not fit a simple Monday-to-Friday week.
Get your shifts on your phone
Build a calendar from a published, known or completely custom rota.
Thinking of reducing your hours?
Model a reduced-hours idea and see the effect across your repeating pattern.
Want to drop certain shifts?
Test removing day, back or night duties before preparing a flexible working conversation.
Make room for life
Check work against school runs, recovery, relationships, exercise and downtime.
Life doesn't run on a standard rota
There’s more to your week
than work.
School runs. Recovery after nights. An evening that’s actually yours. Add your commitments to the change planner and see what fits.
Next, with Pro: two rotas, shared childcare, exercise and time together. Partner planning is being developed and is not available yet.
