There is a compulsion in this sentence.

"Has to" means roughly the same as "must", so the sentence can be written:

"The work must be done."

This is an example of the passive voice in English. The passive voice means that the agent -- the person or thing doing the action described by the verb -- is either not important, or even unknown. If we transform the sentence above to the active voice, we get:

"[Somebody] must do the work."
