This study investigates the impact of excessive virtual space usage on social laziness within the executive bodies of Sirjan. Utilizing structural modeling to analyze data collected through standardized questionnaires, the study reveals that heavy use of virtual space can lead to an increase in social laziness, which, over time, negatively affects employees' efficiency and productivity. Structural analyses further indicate that this phenomenon can gradually reduce effective participation and interaction among organization members. The paper also offers practical recommendations for managers, such as holding awareness workshops, enhancing time management, and promoting in-person interactions, all of which can help reduce the adverse effects of excessive virtual space usage. This study provides valuable insights into the challenges posed by digital engagement and its consequences for organizations, paving the way for future research in this field.
