Steps to Reproduce

1. Define shift types in the system without creating any shifts.
2. Attempt to access the Shifts section.
3. Observe that the system redirects to the News page with an error message.
4. Note that creating shifts is only possible when logged in as an Admin.

Expected Behavior

The Shifts section should display a message indicating that no shifts are currently available, and the user should be able to create new shifts if they have the appropriate permissions.

Actual Behavior

Instead of displaying an empty shifts list or allowing shift creation, the system redirects to the News page with an error message. Shift creation is only possible when logged in as an Admin.

This one, I need to create a branch from the previous branch I created to fix another bug. Its the same file to correct the issue.

@Corborax Can you please check if the solution implemented is ok? If yes, I can close the ticket and then I can make a merge request (needs to be after the other bugfix I did, because it is the same file)
