Director-General Jim Moore has stood aside from his position without pay after he was charged with assault and intimidation.

The Minister for Family and Community Services Pru Goward said she supported and agreed with Mr Moore's decision to stand down.

"As this matter is before the courts, no further comment will be made," Ms Goward said in a statement.

Police confirmed they were called to a unit in Paddington last night and upon arriving at the scene allegedly heard a woman screaming for help.

Inside the apartment they located a 44-year-old woman and 52-year-old man.

Police allege the man assaulted the woman after an argument and refused to let her leave.

The man was arrested and taken to Waverly Police Station where he was charged and placed under a provision domestic violence order.

He will appear at Waverly Local Court on June 13.
