What's the meaning of 'spared'?
Although minor offenses like traffic ticketing or queue jumping are usually pardoned, breaking a criminal law is rarely spared and, in most cases, is sure to result in the ending of the employment.

"spared" is wrong here. "overlook" is a good verb, as Saff suggests. This sentence was probably not written by a native speaker. It has several unnatural words or phrases.

It means 'overlooked' (by the employer, in this case, in considering whether to end your employment).
