Hard work would be equivalent to difficult work (painfull), work hard is the action a man woks hard, but regardless the job is itself hard or not.
Example, a hard work is to move a ton of things from one point to another point.
I work hard (long period of time) in order to get ...
Then the same principle is with "ing" the difference is :
I work hard to get more money => this is usually
I'm working hard to get more money => this is actual
I hope this helps.

This is hard work (work = un nom, hard = un adjectif)
Ce travail est très difficile.

He is a hard-working man. (hard-working = un adjectif)
Il est vraiment très travailleur.
