There are no powers that he is losing as he decides on the above parameters. When it comes to recruitment and appointment he will do it, but within Article 234(5) of the Constitution on the Public Service Commission. The Constitution delegates to him those powers and when it comes to benefits, he goes back to Article 230(4).
