O 's no caso é abreviação do 'has'.
She's already gone to work = She has already gone to work.
Não teria sentido algum o 's ser compreendido como verb to be nesse contexto.

Esta é a forma abreviada do Has (He, She, It) e não o verbo To Be. Veja os seguinte exemplos:
I've (have) already visited Paris many times.
He's (has) worked hard this week.
O Present Perfect é formado com o auxiliar Have ou Has + Past Participle dos verbos.

Actually the 's there don't mean a "to be" verb, but it is "she has": She has already gone to work.
Think of the contracted form "I've said...", we easily notice that "I've said..." is short for "I have said...".
With "he/she/it" the conjugation would be "has" he/she/it has..." but then, they abbreviate it with 's.
Remember that this applies to this particular case of verbe tense, with time you get the hang of it.
