While his business flourished, Roussel never wavered in his belief that wealth and success carried with them a profound responsibility to society. He generously supported numerous charitable organizations, donating to hospitals, schools, and orphanages.
Roussel believed that business leaders had a moral obligation to improve the lives of their employees. He implemented progressive labor practices, introducing fair wages, safe working conditions, and health insurance for his workers.
