Introduction of single aliquot protocols dramatically improved the accuracy of absorbed dose measurements, so now dating of very recent events, which ages are of the order of tens of years or even single years, becomes possible. The overall accuracy of the OSL age is now limited by the correct assignment of the dose rate. Certain types of recent sediments may contain fall-out radioisotopes that increase the average annual dose. In this paper we demonstrate that the contribution from fall-out radioactivity may be significant and the way to take it into account by using a modified age equation.
