Page Layout ⇒ Page number colliding with large table

[edith]

Hi, I am new to latex. I have the problem that the page number is colliding with lage tables, written inside the table on top of the text. Here is the table, but the long sections of text have been replaced with letters. This is all that's in this document so far, this chapter is used as input in the main document, whis is the one I am building.

\begin{document}
\chapter{The system in question}
\section{Responsibility to ...}
\begin{table}
\longtable

\begin{tabular}{|p{2cm}|p{11cm}|}
\hline
What & Description \\
& \\
\hline
Technical system responsibility (onshore) & \begin{itemize}
\item a.
\item b. \ldots
\end{itemize} \\
\hline

Technical discipline responsibility (onshore) & \begin{itemize}
\item c.
\item d.
\item e.
\item f. \ldots
\end{itemize} \\
\hline

Operational system responsibility (offshore) & \begin{itemize}
\item g.
\item h.
\item i.
\item j. \ldots
\end{itemize} \\
\hline

Operational discipline responsibility (offshore) & \begin{itemize}
\item k.
\item l.
\item m.
\item n.
\item o. \ldots
\end{itemize} \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

\caption{Responsibilities for the system according to ...}
\label{tab:hours}
\end{table}

Someone who knows what I am doing wrong or a way I can fix it?

Thanks!

Build a minimal working example (MWE) that only contains the necessary settings, packages and of course your table. Giving specific help becomes easier when seeing some code.
