I am working on a rotating basis at the moment for 5 days and I have two days off.
Nevertheless each week both working days and off are different.
Every day I start at different time.
Can I say something like that..:
Tomorrow I am starting at 6 then the next day at 10 later I am off for the next two days.

In that sentence you can use both the simple and progressive form with little difference in meaning.

Thank you for help. Can you explain that little difference in meaning..?

The simple form may suggest something that has been scheduled, the progressive something for which there is a present arrangement. In your sentence, the difference is insignificant.
