CBIZ BOARD APPROVES CONTINUATION OF STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

AUTHORIZED TO PURCHASE UP TO 5 MILLION SHARES OF ITS COMMON STOCK

Cleveland, Ohio (February 24, 2009)—CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE: CBZ) today announced that on February 19, 2009, the Board of Directors of CBIZ, Inc. authorized the purchase of up to 5 million shares of its outstanding common stock to be obtained in open market or privately negotiated purchases through March 31, 2010. This authorization replaces the 5 million share authorization currently in place which expires on March 31, 2009.

As of December 31, 2008, CBIZ had approximately 62.6 million shares of diluted weighted average common stock outstanding. CBIZ continues to generate significant cash flow from operations. This cash flow will be deployed to fund the continued growth of operations, fund future acquisitions, and to repurchase shares of common stock as authorized by the Board of Directors.

CBIZ’s Board of Directors believes that the repurchase plan is a prudent use of the Company’s financial resources, and that investing in its own shares is an attractive use of capital and an efficient means to provide value to CBIZ stockholders. CBIZ anticipates that it will obtain all of the funds necessary to purchase shares under the repurchase program, and to pay related fees and expenses, from operating cash flow and by borrowing under its current credit facility. This authorization allows such purchases to the extent permitted under the Company’s current or any future credit facility, without further amendment.
