Hi,
I would not specify /bin/sh in the cron job itself ...

What about

57 * * * * /opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/backup/democronjobs/my_shell_script

If in the script itself you specify #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh it should run (as root) without problems.
Or did you try to add below 2 lines into the crontab before the above line?

SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
