Not vs in the refs. ダブルワークをする is more common than ダブルワークする.
I don't think we need the lower-case "w" form. Let the websites/apps handle the conversion.
As this is a gairaigo that's usually written in kana, I think we should include a nakaguro form.

Don't trust Google's counts. I just got the following:
ダブルワーク - 216
ダブルワークの - 179
ダブルワークを - 140
ダブルワークに - 168
ダブルワークして - 175

Clearly inconsistent - if the last 4 are true, the first has to be > 600. I'm more likely to trust the n-grams.
In a few days I might have an alternative n-gram source, which may help with verification.
