Via Group Policy:

  1. Run gpedit.msc
  2. User Configuration > Administrative Templates / Start Menu and Taskbar
  3. Enable the option “Remove and prevent access to the Shut Down, Restart, Sleep and Hibernate commands”

Furthermore, if the user needs to restart or shut down the computer, they can still do so by sending Ctrl-Alt-End and using the power icon in the lower-right corner.
