      This paper presents the `Subset Complement Addition Upper Bound' (SCAUB) procedure which produces upper bounds for probabilities of unions of n events given that probabilities of unions and/or intersections of subsets including up to k events are known. The SCAUB method is an extension of \textit{D. Hunter}'s [J. Appl. Probab. 13, 597-603 (1976; Zbl 0349.60007)] improved Bonferroni bounds.
