There is no workaround; the iPod shuffle (3rd Generation) is not compatible. please refer to these compatibility support articles:
About headphone compatibility with iPod shuffle (3rd generation) - Apple Support
Compatibility of Apple wired headset models with iPhone, iPad, and iPod models - Apple Support
Good Day

Feb 7, 2016 5:52 AM in response to debottymby Kenichi Watanabe,As an alternative (to finding older Apple headphones with compatible buttons), you can get an "adapter" with the playback control buttons. For example
http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-Headphone-Control-Adapter-iPod/dp/B003A5AXP4
There are several similar products, but this one specifically says "Fully compatible with iPod shuffle (3rd generation)" in the product description. With such an adapter, you can connect any standard headphones, including those EarPods.
